15 things I'm looking forward to

Always a nice thing to think about. These are in no particular order!

  1. Getting my portfolio done. I will feel so relieved once it's done.
  2. Going to my friend Leah's wedding. It's in just over a month!!!
  3. Going to my brother's wedding. I'm so happy for him and so excited to get a new sister-in-law.
  4. One of my nephews' first birthday party. I should be able to go and it will be one of the cutest things in the world, I'm sure.
  5. Dogsitting. Puppy and I are getting some quality time soon.
  6. Planning a Halloween costume. I don't have ideas yet, but I'll think of some.
  7. More episodes of Are You the One?. Just a delightful reality show that I look forward to every week.
  8. Trying some new recipes. And really, mostly just eating the food that I make.
  9. Reading some books I have stacked up. I have so many books stacked up.
  10. Getting a job. It's gotta happen sometime, right?
  11. Throwing a murder mystery party. No idea when or where, but I want to do another.
  12. Labor day excursion. In theory I'm going (never know if somehow I'll end up with work that will keep me form it) with friends to Galena that weekend and it should be great.
  13. Dipping my feet in the lake. Gotta do this while the weather still permits.
  14. Getting farther in Wizards Unite. I'm enjoying this game greatly.
  15. Watching some family oral history. I gotta see the video of my grandpa talking about his journey from Ukraine/Russia (it's now Ukraine, but was Russia when he left).

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel.  But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
