Yes. I talked to door. She said even if he doesnt set a goal, i can set a goal, and bring it up the month the end of the goal is, to him.

The apt we want doesnt open til fall anyway. Its under construction. So ill set it at September and crack down on my finances even more.

I did what you told me months ago and canceled another music subscription today. Spotify. I never use it since i use apple music everyday. But im keeping amazon music because its tied to my alexa and i use that everyday too. Plus its only 4 bucks. Cheaper than their regular subscription because it can only be used with an amazon echo.

I have a million dollar idea..

Bluetooth wires that wrap around your fingers so you can tap on anything like your arm as a replacement for a keyboard.

Nah it's just been invented..

Woah, did she ask this in roll call today?! That's awesome!
Intro Philosophy books:
The Story of Philosophy by Will Durant

A History of Western Philosophy by Bertrand Russell is a classic

If you have a kindle i recommend getting Plato's Complete works translated by Benjamin Jowett for free. I have the hardcover and they are excellent to read.

If you cant get a kindle and prefer the actual books you could just get The Trial and Death of Scorates translated by Cooper. It's four of Plato's dialogues that tell the last days of Socrates. Cooper is an excellent translater, you're in good hands with him. It's a very short read.

Ethics of Ambiguity by Simone De Beauvoir is an interesting read and she is a female pioneer in philosophy. She cuts to the chase on things.

Since your religion is a main focus now I highly recommend St Augestine's Confessions. It's a good read!

150mg paliperidone every 21 days = 4mg risperidone a day.

It's not as bad as I thought.

Unless the injection is more complicated than that..

Good morning. Slept well until my husbands alarm went off. Despite my lack of sleep I feel pretty good.
Working today. There was some sort of problem with one of my deliveries so I have to figure that out. Hopefully that will be it for drama.
Grocery shopping later. Just what I want to do.
Then my bestest is coming over. So excited. I haven’t seen her in months. It’s hard to be a mom and maintain friendships with non moms. Time constraints. Different hours. All that. We used to hang out until 4 in the morning. I can’t do that anymore. Or we’d go bar hopping. Another thing I can no longer do.
Have a good day everyone.

But your right.

I drank the past week for different reasons. Each to soothe pain. As usual. Today it was because i was looking for apartments for us. I felt upset and played because in January he told me to wait til april, when he got his car. When i brought it up in april he told me his bff was moving in with us. I was upset. Because the decision was made without me. We had a long argument and he decided he was gonna change a bunch of stuff. Like slowing down on pot and calling me more often. He only does one thing right now. Its been 2 months.

I brought up moving again 2 days ago. Long story short, we had another argument today. He said he had second thoughts about moving in with me becUse i smother him he says. I felt like shyt about that. But he says the moving thing is the only thing we fight about. Besides me being negative all the time.

So i drank a beer.

Idk what im doing wrong anymore.
I know this has been said before but it really seems you're putting all your eggs in one basket. no judgement from me tho because I was the same. however it would be so beneficial to make other friends... maybe when you start working it can happen. it's hard to just go out n make friends... I don't do that either. but I found having a job was a great avenue to potential friends

feeling smothered can create resentment a. and its never good to be totally dependent on one person for social connection
