Hey, Miss J!

I think the title listed here is the perfect way to describe today. Firstly, I felt like I wasn’t even in my own body and thought everything around me had slowed down for 30 seconds.

It’s scary and funny at the same time. Because when I thought everything was moving slow, I was in the middle of singing. I apparently kept up correctly, but it was just my perception.

It’s not the first time this has happened, but it’s never been this severe before.

Once I got home, my hands were shaking so badly…

Now, I’m dealing with other issues, aside from fear because my CPAP supplies supposedly are coming via USPS and are listed as not being uninterceptable possible to intercept. So now I have to hope and pray that my medical supplies aren’t stolen.

I would try to put a hold on my mail, but for some reason USPS ignores it.

Maybe it’s the post office I visit.

I cleaned up downstairs, but stopped to try to get set up for a new vacuum.

Afterpay is an utter joke. I was never able to apply it correctly and ended up accidentally paying the full amount on my credit card for the item.

I was told by the company that they go through UPS only, so I put a request in to reroute the package to a holding location way away from here. Of course, I will also never tell my next-door neighbor how much I paid for that thing.

My credit card bills for the next few months are going to be a nightmare.

And by “next few months,” I mean probably until this time next year.

I’m sure it’s fairly obvious by now… but I got 0 writing done today because of both my state of mind and state of finances too.

Aside from the massive bills from purchasing supplies for my home, I’m floored by the price of food.

I was debating going and buying takeout and by chance checked after adding just cutlery. The total was already over $8 with items I purchased being $0.

Then, I remembered that I am a cook… and enjoy doing it.

I have to push through the fatigue. If I want yucca fries, I’ll have to buy a yucca and prep it myself.

YES, it’s more labor intensive.

YES, it takes a lot more time.

YES, it is more affordable.

So… I suppose I’ll be doing my reading tonight, cooking and doing some slower, but still valid writing. I think if I can manage 5-6K, I could be kept caught up.

For C&R II and C&R III, I’m nearly at goal already for NanoWrimo.

My cleaning got pushed back too.

 I need tea.

Yep.
