Tomorrow I AM gonna get my hair colored, blue balayage. I decided f—- it. Because I’m getting some money next week from my Nana’s inheritance she left me (still SO grateful for that) so I can pay down my medical bills thank goodness and I’ll be able to treat myself just for my birthday. If it wasn’t my birthday in 3 weeks I definitely wouldn’t do it.

Next week I’m meeting with my tattoo artist to finish the tattoo she started a year and a half ago lol it’s already paid for so I’ll just have to pay tip. I’m going to restrain myself from getting more ear piercings I REALLY can’t keep bleeding money. But at least I’ll be out of the house for a little while!
Yeah, sometimes all we can do is get through it one day at a time. Doing anything that's reasonably safe helps.
I go to thrift stores sometimes too. For one thing, I don't usually like the currently popular clothes at the regular department stores. I'd rather pay $5 for something I like that's slightly used than pay $50 for something I would only wear in an emergency.

Also, I can get a nice jigsaw puzzle, a really good brand for $2 0r $3 that would cost $15 or more new. Most of the time ALL the pieces are there, which says a lot about the donors--they bothered to keep up with 500 or a thousand tiny pieces of cardboard. They often put them in a giant plastic bag too, so the pieces won't spill out if the box pops open. Maybe they were thinking about the people who would buy the puzzles at the thrift store. If so, it makes me feel better about the human race.

Hmm, maybe you could try a jigsaw puzzle? They can occupy hours of time, if you like that sort of thing. You have to just sit there and stare at the pieces and the picture, though.
