Productive
Sep. 8th, 2025 11:57 amLast night was My Thursday. After work I took a shower, then killed a little time until roughly 6:30, when I got dressed and walked to The Ranch for breakfast. Then I picked up a ridiculous number of pakidges from the post office. Mostly snacks, but also three new bath towels & 200 sets of disposable chopsticks! Opening & packing them all so that I could carry them to the shuttle took so long that I missed the shuttle by about five minutes. I had eaten some tea aitch sea gummies earlier, so this did not stress me out too much. I just sat in the shade and bird-watched until the next one.
When I got home I started some laundry, then put away all my stuff, then took another shower. A few minutes ago I put away my fresh laundry.
Also, I went to ebay dot com and ordered Harry Potter hardcovers four & five (the first three will allegedly arrive in a few days) and they suggested a doll I am seriously considering as a birthday present for myself. 1990 Babysitter Skipper in the box. For $55. Very tempting.
I think I want to try to spend as little as possible for the rest of September, though. I mean, obviously I will continue to treat myself to new books & more edibles, and I can never have too many snacks, and if I need new toiletries I will buy new toiletries, but I can wait to purchase any new furniture and slash or appliances (with the possible exception of a small drink fridge). If I do buy anything non-essential, it should be more work clothes (that reminds me, I legit need to order new work shoes pretty soon) or maybe rugs or something else for my room that is small and easy to carry.
But yeah, my general plan is to save as much as possible between now and October. While meeting my needs and occasionally treating myself.
