Update May 20th 2021

May 7th 2021
Place has been utterly and completely re-arranged and it now feels like home. I have separation in my place (Bedroom area, living area) and my bookshelves are splitting up my place between my kitchen and main area (living room/bedroom), I love how it looks, and am very happy with it.
Other Updates
Been keeping my place clean for the most part though I'm once again falling behind in dishes but only because I did a huge amount of baking today (May 20th). Yesterday was disability pay day so I got my groceries and stuff after paying my bills. Had about $300-ish after bills were paid. I've made myself a finance book so I can keep track of my spending better, it's a bit shaky rn and groceries are expensive as hell (baking ingredients took a lot out of my check because I really wanted to bake).
I put away about $50 for emergency funds JUST IN CASE because I'm trying to be better at putting money away and not touching it.
Got myself some melotonin gummies because due to summer and the heat, my sleep gets more fucked up than usual.
Therapy has been going well :) been having it every sunday (except for a couple like mother's day and if something happened in my therapist's life), and it's been helping a lot with past traumas I have, a lot of them have scarred me so, I've been working on that.
All in all, things have been going pretty well, and I'm trying to do more art as well and just take things day by day.
Had to reschedule my MRI appointment as I got the letter in the mail and it was for FOUR IN THE MORNING and cabs are too expensive, and buses don't run that early. I don't really have many connections that I can ask people to drive me so hopefully I'll get an appointment for later on in the day so I can catch the bus to the hospital across town.
I need to get this ankle figured out before I can even think about going back to work because it's been fucked up since 2016 and it affected my work when I worked from 2017-2019 because I can't stand on it for very long without severe pain (guess that's why I worked receiving at the time, doing pricing and getting stuff ready to go out on the floor, I was allowed to sit for my shift).
Hoping after therapy finishes and my ankle gets figured out that I can go back to work, because I hate not working but I won't risk screwing up my ankle more than it already is.
So...there's the update. :)
