Chilling Out – My First Blaugust 2024 Post

Chilling out is important. After a full week of work, it’s good to relax. For me, it’s hard to do. In the back of my mind, I think I am just being lazy and I think there is something that needs to be done. I also have this anxiety that someone is going to call and beg for my help.

As I have said I have to work at setting boundaries and saying no. It is important to reclaim my time for myself instead of giving myself away. Sure, it’s nice to be needed but I don’t want to be needed so much at this stage in my life.

So as I write this, I am having some fun and enjoying the time to do stuff I want to do. Perhaps I should matter more to me.

This post is a part of the Blaugust 2024 blogging festival.

Happy Friday Everyone!

My friends, it’s Friday. Let’s finish the week strong. The weekend is almost here! Make it awesome or something like that.

Democracy and Voting Is Cool

Today was local and state election day here in Tennessee. I did my civic duty and went to my local polling station to vote. We still do paper ballots with electronic tabulation here so I don’t get that thrill of going behind a curtain to a voting machine. Voting is as important for local and state races as it is for the federal and presidential races.

Americans, don’t forget to vote on November 5th. That’s a big one for reasons you know already.

Hello August 2024!
