Hey, Miss J!

Time: 9:21PM

Today was better than yesterday – by a long shot.

So much fruit! I’ve been licking my fingers and face for most of the day.

I really love pineapple, which I got Friday for free, along with a huge watermelon. We got corn too, but a lot of it was bad. Like mushy… and some of it had mold. Out of 11 ears, only 3 of them were any good. It’s fine though.

Cos it was free.

We also obtained a chicken. My friend asked how on earth were we going to split a single whole chicken.

Good question.

Thankfully, she eats plant-based primarily, so gave me the chicken.

We also received more free lightbulbs. I have no problem with that at all.

Earlier today, we got a lot of fruit at a shop too. So that was very nice.

Lots of grapes, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, peaches… etc.

Since today is Sunday, I also had a place I went to for free cat food and litter. Somehow, I also ended up with cans of dog food mixed in with the cat food. At the time, I had it put in the trunk, so I had no idea.

I’ve spent a lot time in the last four days just waiting for things.

For free human food, I arrived at one place around 7:30AM. The food arrived before 8AM, but it took until 9 before any of it was dispensed. Today, I arrived at like 8:20AM and had to wait till like 9:30AM before cat stuff was dispensed.

Then had to fly (not literally) somewhere else to get to that shop.

So much strain and effort went into actually shopping for anything. When I got home, I had to clean out my fridge finally and put all of the fresh stuff away. I managed to whip up some lunch with the free veg we got a few days ago and cheese I picked up.

Then my friend came over and we cleaned up in one of my rooms.

This time I was smart and wore a mask.

I took her home, and to be honest, I wanted to go to sleep instead of update this blog. I really really wanted to just rest.

Since my memory has been sliding quite a bit, I’m trying to keep an up to date account of things.

Stubbornly, I want to work on NtC, but am very tired. I think this time I’ll set my alarm for 5AM and got to bed in a half hour or so.

That is the plan… now if it’ll be done… That’s another thing entirely.

My toothbrush also failed to arrive. In fact, I was informed that it was lost and granted a full refund.

That’s really upsetting.
