Open Forum: You’re not going get rid of me that easily

Copyright Allie Brosh Please Don’t Send The Copyright Monster After Me.

Hey y’all .  So sorry to worry everyone. As you all know from my constant whining, that I kind of needed a bit of a break. Or breakdown? With Bravo not really airing much ( I may try to do a Vanderpump Rules recap soon) I decided to take some down time.  For the last decade or so, I have been online pretty much every waking second of my life. I’ve gotten stuff up almost everyday. I was feeling a bit unwell, and decided while we are in a Bravo lull, I would take a day off. I slept for most of the first 24 hours except for when Banjo woke me up to feed him or let him outside.  He’s very specific when it comes time for food or going out.  I found myself wanting to do nothing but sleep.  I’ve been sleeping most of the time I have been away. And intermittently bingeing Insecure on HBO.

I think I have some health issues that might explain what is going on with me. Eventually, I will look for a doctor and let you know if as I suspect there is a physical reason why I can’t clean my own house or think straight anymore.

I’m sorry for scaring everyone. I’m sure I will be fine after a bit of rest. I miss you all and thank you for caring about me. I can’t wait to get back to recapping.

xo~tt

EDITED TO ADD: If you could possibility avoid diagnosing me when you don’t know my medical history, that would be swell.  I am a grown ass women with knowledge of my own medical history and do not need your medical advice.  I can’t deal with anymore ignorant parathyroid bitches right now. Which is why I just took some time away. Keep your diagnoses to yourselves. TIA. I’m going back to bed.

    TT, we all need time to ourselves, yourself included. Doesn’t matter why….but we must recharge our batteries. So glad you’re taking the time for yourself.

    You have turned me on to so many wonderful shows and the great recaps that I wouldn’t know what to do without your page. Thank you for all you do.

    Yes I’ve been looking for you the past few days but I knew you needed a break and was hoping you got some much needed sleep. Take care TT and
    many blessings to all for the coming new year!

    I ordered food from Whole Paycheck. It involves some healthy things and frozen Thai food and ravioli. I do not feel like cooking today.

    There is also some chocolate arriving today.

    Thanks for sticking with me you guys. I could try to pump my source because everyone flees when I do not post, but I really don’t have choice at this point. This is the longest I have been awake in ages. Partially because someone online is irritating as fuck. And I was on the phone with my sister. My days and nights are backwards. I just need some rest. If you are new Sheree taking me to court was pretty hysterical and a good read. https://tamaratattles.com/?s=Sheree+Whitfield+Court

    You will probably have to scroll way back to get to when we were in court together…. She’s been there A LOT. lol. And I have only ever been to court with her dumbass. LOL.

    And yes, I need the page views. But must sleep.

    Also, I finally unfollowed Cho on Twitter. He’s been posting on Twitter as everything from a skin care expert to a financial advisor. As a financial expert he asked on Twitter, “Where do you have your business account” that kind of went from stupid to um… creepy. I’ve sort of mentioned to him that he has changed. But his most recent Tweet about being glad to be in Florida so he doesn’t have to wear a mask…

    Seriously? Going back to bed now.

    A lot of people are not at our best this time of year. I think at least some of it is the cloudy and short days. My sleep has been iffy lately. And I love to sleep. Thank you for checking in.

    I’m sorry you aren’t feeling well and sincerely hope you feel better soon. This time of the year is a bia#ch for me also so I understand. So you’re bingeing on Insecure….you’ll love it. I’m critical about shows of this type and never thought I’d fall so in love with a show about millennials. However, it’s so well done and so spot on for us Gen X’ers too….I fell hopelessly in love with EVERYBODY but that Granola person. If you don’t know who that is….don’t worry, you’ll find out, and it will be delightfully delicious.

      I’m so sorry, Cody. I hope this poem brings you some comfort. It did for me when I was in your shoes.

      Grieve not,
      nor speak of me with tears,
      but laugh and talk of me
      as if I were beside you –

      I loved you so –
      ’twas Heaven here with you

      So sorry, Cody. One of the things I am doing during this down time is spending more time with Banjo. He’s not going to be around much longer. But, I’m doing everything I can to extend that with the help of a kind person who got him the meds he needs to to keep walking.

    Thanks for the update! I was worried about earlier this morning. My whole house is sluggish and tired (and has been for ages), so I feel your pain. Brain fog, low energy, anxious, and melancholy. I’ll work on it tomorrow…

    Glad to hear from Tamara! Self-care is always good.

    I appreciate everyone’s honesty on how they feel these days, I realize I am not alone. The weather, the holidays (mom passed in December a couple of years ago) and an unnecessarily demanding job have my drained me. I took a few days off to recharge, and boy it’s made a difference. No more applesauce brain and my energy returning.

    Thank you TT community for being great people. Wish you all the best in 2022, especially those struggling (🤗🤗sending hugs).

    Thinking of you and Banjo, and hope to see you back and feeling happy before long. Everyone needs time off.

    Please tell me that you are watching our favorite show on Paramount + (aka CBS All Access). The Challenge: All Stars. It is a really awesome break from fake Bravo crap. I love that all the women have real bodies and the dudes are still buff. I cried so hard at the finale of the first season. I know it is a fave of yours and it is just fun and enjoyable to watch.

    Had a talk with my sister about if we’re going to make it to midnight awake. I think it’s a challenge.

    Happy New Years. I expect to hear fireworks. A time to keep the pets safe.

    Banjo and I are in our Tornado shelter trying to survive the tornado heading our way. We’re trying not to die. The good news is that the fireworks fools have temporarily stopped.

    The good news is the tornado fell apart, so we lived. The bad news is that fireworks are starting up again. Also, as it turns out, I can no longer get myself up off the floor. I literally had to scoot on my butt to get back to the couch where I could pull up. UGH.

    This is the last post that says open forum so I’m putting this here. Am I the only one who feels like we should have a national moment of silence today? We have federal holidays for all kinds of things, and it occurs to me that at least a moment of silence to recognize how precious and fragile our democracy is would be appropriate. Anyone else?
