Miniscule

Just a small update today. Changes to the background and added my animated bands from ages ago!

Nothing fance to type; still cold. However, it did go up 2 degrees LOL

10 degrees fahrenheit 

Still racking my brain on the Domanska lineage. Where did Domicella come from that warrants that last name... thing is that the documents from her marriages all state that as a surname but where it gets tricky is the first and second husbands. Her first husband had 2 last names, Bachora and Jarosweski and are indicated. Why would Marcin Jarosweski have the name Bachora too? 
After sifting through Genetka, his dad was the culprit with those.. was he a bigamist? Hate to sound accusatory here...

All good things do come in time and when least expected.

Had this on my fb.
My favorite. This was posted as a hurt piece response. 
Its hard to make friends when half your life was dismissed as shit but keeping them is another thing. Relationships of all kinds require work and effort.
Even through all that, don't expect to be a wonder woman either. You can't be everything to everyone. So when I read quotes about being yourself, which self is it?
The 2 sides of everything,  yin and yang, off and on, white and black.. 
It hurts big time no matter what. So what is the saving grace if we allow it in our lives?
To each his own?
Some will win 
Some are born to sing the blues... ok, that was a song lyric reference.. 
Don't stop believing from Journey. 
There's more to think in this world beyond the vein and veil.

Boundaries

Am going through this now. Even though I love my bestie, she made me feel guilty for calling her out on not respecting my boundaries. Made me feel like dirt.
I lived half of my life with a narcissistic dad and I'll be damned if someone else breaks my heart and spirit again.

"Can I let you in on a secret about friendships in adulthood

Sometimes they are really freaking hard.
Like, really freaking hard.

But so often the friends we have in our adult years are the only thing saving us from hitting rock bottom.

The truth is that even the strongest friendship bonds are not forged in stone. No, just as life is ever changing, friendships will always ebb and flow.

Sometimes your closest friends fade away into the background of your life.
Sometimes background friends somehow become part of your inner circle.

Sometimes brand new people enter your life and become the friends you never knew you needed.
Sometimes your heart aches because it misses the friendships that used to be but are no more.

No matter where you are in your adult friendship journey, don't overthink it and don't dwell in the past.

Instead, hold on tight and ride the friendship wave.

Welcome the ones that find their way to you.
Send peace to the ones who fade away.
Love the friends that are there right now."
