What do you DO when you have run out of straws?

That’s it.

THAT’S IT!!!

My 60 inch television appears to no longer want to give up it’s bounty!

Add to that, the rent has been increased. Again…*sigh*

Aimlessly, wandering through the television channels has been my ONE true mindless source of entertainment…*sigh*

I have to laugh. Too dismayed all day to cry.

I must admit, beloveds, that I feel just like the black television screen:

Useless.

There, but unable to make it work.

Tantalizingly there but unusable.

Fresh hell.

I tell myself to move FORWARD.

I tell myself to look UP.

I tell myself…

Ah, shut up already, Cassandra!

I ask Life how long it plans to keep on lifing this way.

I ask The Universe to cut a sista a break already.

I am a bit too annoyed to ask God anything at the moment.

Still, I rise.

Yet, I fight on.

I choose to:

Laugh.

Encourage someone.

Love someone.

Starting with me.

I just stopped my what in the fresh hell is this, long enough to encourage someone.

This too, shall pass.

I truly am wondering how many straws I have left. I tell myself there can never be a last straw. I have too many things/thangs to do.

I can betcha that I will NOT look back on this time and laugh…lol.

We got this. Be sure to squeeze some joy out of the day. I am fixing to go make a cup of coffee and holler up to heaven at mom, for a spell. Ah, mom. Why did you have to run off and leave me at a time like this?

asking for A Friend,
Cassandra

Note: Don’t allow tough circumstances to cause you to see nothing but gloom and doom.

In times past, I would have wallowed in self pity for days. Life is much too short for that. Good yikes, tho. My 60 inch television…*pout*. That made me laugh out loud.

Someone cross their fingers for me. I have to take another assessment. Good grief, I have forgotten soooooooooooo much math!😳🤣🙏🛎

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!
