Had a NOT so jolly July, but soon a Happy B-Day?
a year ago
.... OH BOY was July a trip! Defiently a BUMPY ride!
Aside from ALL the crazy news in the world of poltics, legal standings, current events, and entertainment... there was ALOT to deal with!
For starters, kept getting shorter hours at work for the month, which is NOT good with a big car insurence bill waiting for me around the end of THIS month! I had to keep showing up at my work-place and BEG them to give me more hours so I can at LEAST get a paycheck that is more than just roughly $150 a week!
Had family visit for over a week, meaning I not only had to entertain the kids visiting us, but having to share my room with my brother, which limited what I can do at home.
Also been having a mix bag of my birthday coming up.... I just feel like despite my "best effort" socializing and supporting different artists and people on here, I don't really stand out to most others online... I think I've over hype my birthday as the ONE excuse for people to "care" for me to some degree... but I have notice outside of close friends, I don't really get as much as I give out... that has been bugging me for a few years now... especially the last few months... and, AGAIN, with how my job has been cutting my hours, which cuts in my pay to which I use to fund commissions and projects, I feel like I am just spinning wheels and going nowhere... been considering getting a 2nd gig job to help, but still need run the hurdles that come with that.
Still paying off my car repair debt from the start of the year. I am paying off directly to my folks, so I don't have to worry about interest, but still... cut hours make paying it off go LONGER than I want it to be...
I am still somewhat hopeful for the future despite all the dread, trouble, and dissapointment going so far... this is what it means to be an adult, right? Will try to enjoy my birthday as best I can when it comes around next week... I also wish everyone some good times for now and the near future too. We ALL need a good break from this steady path of BAD stuff we've been dealing with.
