Well, I'm fired. I dropped the Saturday shift at the very start of January and kept the 5 weekday shifts, then was fired a mere 3 weeks later. Still don't know why. Former boss just said I'd "been given many chances " to fix...... what? The only thing he complained about was the cluttered state of the house, the the lardasses' caseworkers both said I wasn't supposed to clean for them. Oh well, I wanted to quit anyway. Just not so soon. It's like one of those automated toilets flushing too soon. I'll decide when I'm done!
So, now what? I've got enough money for this month's bills, and my savings account has enough for next month's bills, but I really don't want to hit savings acct.
I'm thinking of selling some of the hand me downs I get from richer family. Much of it doesn't fit. Why not get something out of it? And I need to downsize anyway. There are some things I'm ok with getting rid of, some things I want to keep, and some things I just want to use up.
Selling stuff would bring in some small income and downsizing would clear space for that sims 3 computer that is still in pieces 2 years later. Jobs take up too much energy from me, probably because I've yet to find a job I like. And I hate driving in winter. I've been enjoying the time off, staying in when it snows, and cleaning up after 7 months of exhaustion. I have a huge backup of recycling since the lardasses had no recycling collection at their apartment. I've also collected far too much junk food. My makeup collection is still insane.
And I really enjoy being with my cat. My oldest is 17 now, maybe 18 since she was an adopted stray and we're not sure when she was born. She sometimes let's me carry her up and down the stairs. She's a cuddly kitty and loves having me around more. So I'm actually quite happy, if you ignore the income problem.
And I need to try out for medicaid again. And call the student loan people. Sigh.

I want to do a fast for Lent. It would be a keto fast, not a water fast, because you know I want to protect what little muscle I have. But a type of fast. The hard part will be not getting caught. Not because anyone could do anything, but because I don't want anyone to worry. I want to do 500 cals a day for the 40 days. Now Lent does not include Sundays as fast days. Sunday is deliberately excluded. So Lent is actually longer than 40 days. So I can eat whatever I want on Sunday, but I think for my own comfort, I'll aim for low carb fare.
Ash Wednesday is next week, so I have some prep time to hunt down some dinner options if I have to be seen eating.
I'm excited! My brain works so much better during a fast. I'm more creative and I get so much more done.
Sorry about the job, but it sounds like it might have been a blessing in disguise. I really hope you find one that you actually enjoy soon though. Your cat sounds cute, I want a cat more than anything but my landlord won't let me have one and I'm a little too irresponsible right now haha. I hope you're doing okay.
