Day One: Already awesome!I’m going to count this as “day one” for some goals. So this is like early new years day.
I guess I should make some solid goals now.
Welcome to having a Saucy in your life. You start out happy and full of life, but as you get to know your Saucy, suddenly you find yourself drained and ready for death. It truly is a burden to know one of us.It's Christmastime. I should be happy and feeling festive. Just a week ago, I was really happy and getting excited for it. But now I've been feeling so down for the last few days for some reason, and just can't seem to get into the Christmas spirit as much as I usually do.
I think I'm just frustrated with and tired of how my life has been more recently. There are so many things I'm not happy with and that I want to change but can't (yet) for one reason or another.
I think I'm spending way too much time online, especially on CF. Usually when I'm not on CF I can't wait to get back on. When I'm on CF I spend lots of time looking around the site even when nothing is going on. I never get enough done offline or anywhere besides CF. Whenever I start a non-digital project it takes me forever to finish. I rarely do much of anything on other sites either, but I don't know how I can get myself to spend less time online when I have such a hard time getting myself away from CF sometimes.
I've been doing most of the things in my life on a daily schedule that I pretty much made myself for several years now, and I'm tired of it, but I can't seem to get myself out of it. The problem is that even when I try not to do it, I just end up going back to it. If I change up my schedule at all then that becomes a new schedule that I can't get out of. All of this makes me realize even more how fast time goes and how quickly my life is going to go by...
And well, growing up I had the typical plans when I got older: learn to drive, go to college, get a job...but then anxiety struck when I was a teenager and messed up my life for several years. Now I haven't gotten any of that accomplished, and sometimes it really gets me down.
Oh, there are at least a few other things too, but I don't want to write a book here. I know I should be thankful for what I do have because it could be much worse, and overall, it probably was worse last year. I'm just having a hard time feeling grateful these days.
...Sorry, that was a lot.If you've read this far, thank you. If not, that's all right.
Oh my!Welcome to having a Saucy in your life. You start out happy and full of life, but as you get to know your Saucy, suddenly you find yourself drained and ready for death. It truly is a burden to know one of us.
You have 99 problems, but a Saucy ain't one?Oh my!
Well, you're not one of my problems, don't worry, haha.![]()
Maybe just start by taking a weekend off from logging in to CF and other sites. See how you feel. I have taken several long breaks since I joined CF to focus on other things. The break can be helpful sometimes. You don't even have to take a complete break. Just limit yourself to logging in once a day ( that way you can still connect with everyone, but not have the forum drain all your free time).It's Christmastime.

You should also remind her that you missed me so terribly, you rejoined as fast as you could. I understand your pain.Maybe just start by taking a weekend off from logging in to CF and other sites.

I also find it helps to break your tasks or goals down into smaller more manageable tasks.
Multiproblems? Oh no!That would make you...Multiproblem! Dun dun dunnnnn!!!

Sure, we can go with that reasonYou should also remind her that you missed me so terribly, you rejoined as fast as you could. I understand your pain.
If it makes you feel better, I didn't get my drivers license until I was 22 (I think....may have been 21 or 23). It's never too late to do that. I've heard of women who got their license when they were in their 40's or 50's. Don't compare yourself to others or what they have done. If you want to get your license, go to college, or get a job then do it. Don't beat yourself up, it's a journey and a process.It's Christmastime. I should be happy and feeling festive.

My inbox is always open if you need anything or just to vent.Thank you, that is good advice.
I mainly feel frustrated about that because I think my parents expected me to do those things sooner, and it makes me feel bad when they bring it up. It gets frustrating having to wait for them to take me places because they often don't have time.
I'm glad you understand, though. I know exactly what you mean.
