Belated Welcome to 2025
10 months ago
Okay... sorry for the delay... just kept busy through the holidays, hardly had the ability to just sit down and focus on whats going on around me.
2024... was AWFUL. A rollercoaster of few highs and TOO many drops that seem to just went on FOREVER.... dealing with things like death relating to friends, mutuals, and celebrities in general. The election as a WHOLE was disturbing outcome. Seeing so much broken images of people we liked and had faith in, broken pedstals at best while full on betryal at worst...
I finally gotten a chance to cross train in my work place, allowing me the chance to be full time with ALL of the benifits to it... except around the late Spring, my hours were DRASTICALLY cut from the normal ammount. I was working pretty much HALF at what I was used to until around the Fall. This was bad because I needed the hours for decent living wages (I STILL live with my folks, and it was JUST BARELY enough with all the bills) as well ensure I get decent coverage for health insurance (paying out of pocket with my old pan was crossing over the $100 a month). It doesn't help either that later half of the year, it looks like they are cutting down on "work" time for some areas of the job, like cleaning the store is now tighter than it normally is and makes thing more stressful and hectic to do. Sadder still, it seems like applying to full time nowadays is VERY limited in general to ANYONE in ANY department now, so despite all my efforts for the last few years, it seems like things went BACK on me with all the progress I made.
I had to drastically save up for most of the year to cover BIG bills due while my work hours were so short, they would barely cover anything outside of small things between weeks. I think I devlope a unique take of cabin fever and depression.
And with how the government is going forward in 2025, it does feel like EVERYTHING will be reset back to 2020...
"
And yet, despite all of that, I still persisit in my beliefs and hobbies. At the very least, that is the most ANYONE can do with these trying times...
Wishing everyone who read this some good luck going into this year... it maybe some of the longest ones to get through.
