Howdy

 It's been a while since I've posted something in this parallel universe.

Things have gone wild since 2019... the silent intruder, and now COVID-19 + the electoral limbo times we are living. Who knows what will happen. Whatever the outcome, I hope decency, tolerance, and honesty are back.

I don't really know what to say at this point. I can only be grateful about what I've received... one more day of life, a roof, food on the table, a warm bed, and some sort of company.

Stay safe.

Solitude

Like a blank page

A day starts

Words to be written

Images to be taken

Thoughts to be watched

Birds singing

Memories being created

Sounds of life

Random thoughts

Blah

Presently sitting on my bed, with an achy lower back. Browsing my old blog and trying to catch up where I left.

It's been almost 15 years in this country now. Unbelievable. Who would tell that I would end up here.
Anyway... I'm going to run downstairs for some dinner.

See ya

No words

I feel shitty today... it's been two years since we found out about your cancer. It feels so empty without you... my soul is in pain, because I miss you so much.

Mom, I love you.

I wish there was a group such as the AA but for chocoholics. Yes, my name is Nefer, and I am a Chocoholic.

My love affair with chocolate began in my childhood. The problem with it is that I cannot limit the amount of chocolate intake. If I buy, lets say... a bar that contains 3 servings... I cannot help it. I eat it all at the moment. I do not just enjoy a little piece and save it for later. I feel the need of gulping it like a caveman munching on its prey.

Not only it causes me anxiety and tiredness... but all the effects that I describe in "El azucar mata". Sugar, the slow and sweet killer that causes all sorts of problems. Anyway. I had to come over here and confess my crimes. I ate a full bar of Hazelnut milk chocolate... a total of 15g per portion, times 3... 45g sugar!!!!!...

I hope tomorrow I don't feel cranky and bitchy. But with this crazy weather (yeah, put the blame on something!), the snow makes one crave not only for delicious chocolate, but for mmmhhh another yet one of my guilty pleasures... coffee.

Balloon

Dear reader... I've been in limbo... between studying for the certification and losing myself in time... and a bit too much worried about too many things. Among them, the left side "balloon" that is growing in my pelvic cavity, feeling itchy and today... with a rash. I'm hoping it is only an allergy and not the feared IBC.

I just ate like an ape... hopefully my digestion will flow. I know, who cares, right? but when you get to a certain age, these types of things become more important than life/career experiences. Being able to taste food as it is, to breath deeply and freely, having all the routine physiological routines flowing normally... etc.

Anyway... I'll stop the nonsense today and I'm off to join the Pharaoh. Friday. Too many Fridays without him (yes... work is to blame).
