That's how things have been lately. Picture perfect. I know I am starting to sound like a broken record and people are looking for some drama. They're just isn't any here. Things have been so well that I have been enjoying my hobbies to the point of being enthralled. Beforehand, I haven't felt mentally able to enjoy my hobby, model railroading, in years.
Today, I still have tons of stuff in storage over at my late grandmother's house. My air brush and air compressor. Boxes and boxes. All my model railroading supplies. I am going to drive over and see if I can bring some home. I look forward to putting together my spare desk and using that as my hobby center.
Also, I actually have a spare bedroom to turn into a modest rail empire and my father thought that was a great idea. All the pieces to this puzzle that has been my life these past few years is coming together. The penultimate experience is me getting to enjoy life for a change. No addictions that always robbed me of time and money. No mental illness that always made me feel wonky and confused. Just smooth sailing and I think I deserve some time like that after years of upheaval.
Way to go Andrew...
ReplyDeleteI agree that you deserve it.. So, take advantage and don't forget to share some photos of the rail empire when it is getting completed.. Very exciting to embark on a old forgotten hobby. (especially when you still have all the parts needed)
This is the best story of all - peace be with you Andrew!
ReplyDeleteAndrew, I am sincerely thrilled for you. You do deserve to have a satisfying and full life.
ReplyDeleteGreat news... enjoy your hobby.

Yes, you definately deserve it. No looking for drama for me. I love to come here and just read about how normal things are. I think you have made so much progress. It's wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAndrew I have read from the beginning and I agree with the comment above: "No looking for drama for me." I am glad to come here and see things are going smooth for you. Best to you. About time you got some slack.
ReplyDeleteI am glad for this time in your life, Andrew. You deserve this and I hope it continues to be smoothing sailing from here on out!
ReplyDeleteGood for you!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea, getting your things from your Grandmothers. I bet you'll be surprised about what 's over there...probably some things you've even forgotten about. Youre so fortunate to have that extra room to enjoy your model railroading in.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work, Andrew.
You deserve everything you have and more!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to read that you are happy. And for the record.... I like this better than any "drama."
:-)
I am so happy that things are going so well for you! I read to see how you are doing good days and rough days and not expecting drama at all. I am so glad that you sound really truly happy and that you are involved in some things that you really enjoy being a part of. I too am eager to see pictures when you want to share them
ReplyDeleteThis is how life should be. I'm so happy for you! Drama is the part of life that needs to be gotten rid of.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trains, and remember.. pictures!
I'm so happy things are going well for you! :) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat is great to hear. You are an inspiration to all of us who struggle. I can not wait to see the new railroad empire!
ReplyDeleteSOmehow we're conditioned to expect a Cosmic Bananaskin to slip on on the sidewalk when things are going 'too' well, aren't we?
ReplyDeleteI think it's silly superstition, and yes, you deserve a break.
I've been sailing these last 7 years with no slip-up, and while I don't expect it to continue, I try not to expect it not to.. lol Things change, and that's the only guarantee, and you and I both had our fair share of crappy times.
Enjoy the break in the clouds, it might mean summer is finally here for you. I hope so. You deserve good times.
Glad to read your doing good. A train room sounds like a great idea. You could even post movies. well, maybe that's just me - I'm kinda a train guy too.
ReplyDeleteReading this post has made my day!
ReplyDeleteI think this is great for you and your blog. Don't worry about the drama! Drama is overrated.
ReplyDeleteOn another note,
When I was a kid we moved alot. I remember we moved into one house where someone had left their model trains in the basement. Oh. It was so fun to look at the minature train and the minature world that surrounded it.
Good for you! You definitely deserve some goodness.
ReplyDeleteI'm very happy to hear things are 'picture perfect'. You deserve some happiness.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear things are looking good for you. I must have missed something in the last few posts... was someone looking for some negative drama?
ReplyDeleteEverything sounds just peachy! Enjoy!
yes you do. absolutely!
ReplyDeleteyes you do. absolutely!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly deserve some smooth sailing for a change. I'm so glad you are doing well and you realize that your Dad and Dr. only have your best interest at heart. So sorry to see you Mom was having a rough time.
