Fourteen Years of Blogging

Oh. Suddenly been blogging for fourteen years today, ahh :D Where did the time go? Haha. <3 This past year has been difficult for me. And I have been reading a whole lot less because of it. I'm still not reading like normal. And that is okay. Reading will happen once I feel better, hopefully. But yes. It has been a hard year. Not going to share too much, just some small details. I mentioned last year that my grandpa was not doing that well. He died at the end of October last year. And it's still breaking us. We didnt think he would die. Not then. And it has been so heartbreaking since then. We are all doing okay, as we are such a close family. But it has been hard. He did not deserve that. He was supposed to have so many good years now with us. This sadness has affected the rest of me too. I have not felt like reading. Or playing other games. Or doing much of anything. I'm doing the best that I can, and trying my best not to think of it all too much. But it is hard. And so sad. And I miss him so much. Thankfully our small family is close, which helps a lot.

Anyway. I started the new medicine last year. It has not at all worked like I hoped it would. Ha. I have had less energy instead. Sigh. Which really truly sucks. And so I have not read much this year. Will not make my reading goal this time. Aw. But will make it to twenty books read this year, at least, I think. I'm still not losing any weight. Which has been bothering me for years. And so this summer I bought a treadmill. And I have been walking on it for almost one hundred days now. Thirty minutes every day. I am awesome. Ha. But I am not losing weight at all. And it still hurts to walk, even after a hundred days. Ugh. This is so rude. I'm not eating too much either. But it is my medicine that is to blame. Or my morbus crohn. I don't know. It is just highly annoying, either way. But I am not giving up yet. I shall continue to walk until it starts helping, ha. But not happy with my medicine. Might try a new one soon. I also removed my tonsils this year. It was so painful after to heal. And it took ages. But I survived, haha. And I am glad that I got them gone. I think.

I do not really have much else to share about this year. I have not travelled, so I have not been anywhere. But I have been doing okay. I still play pokemon go daily, going on short daily walks outside. I still play my daily one hour of animal crossing new horizons, which I love. And love the new Nintendo Switch 2. I also still play animal crossing pocket camp daily, despite it no longer being an online game. Then I bought the new iPhone 17 Pro Max this year, and I am so in love with it. I discovered pop mart and Labubu this year. Ha. And my obsession have been crazy since then. Bad for my money. Bad for my limited space. But so good for my heart. I love these little plushes so much. And my collection is the most beautiful and so big. Still post daily on instagram and I blog here as always. Have loved taking photos outside all year long for instagram. Though I'm not getting any new followers, which is a little sad. But I still love doing it. And I'm still going to continue blogging, always. Hoping to read more soon. Thank you all for still following me. <3
