Talk about your habits - the good and the bad.
I honestly can’t think of any good habits except the way my early mornings go .... dishes and laundry are usually caught up. They don’t sit forever because of the good habit of doing them (or checking on doing them) everyday. The lack of other good habits may be considered bad habits as I could incorporate 30 mins of movement into my day and just don’t .... Actual bad habits? I drink straight from the bottle.... I have a gallon of Crystal Light Peach Mango Green Tea and it’s just me and Rocky.... I drink straight from it. No kind of eww in the comments is going to stop me from doing it. If I pour it in a cup I waste a lot of it .....
How have the past 2 dark years of the pandemic era changed you?
The past 2 years have been dark for more reasons than the pandemic. Honestly, at first it was a relief. Let’s see.... I’d been off work for 9 months and gone back in October 2019.... I think that’s right.... our fiscal year at work renews in April and I hadn’t used my vacation because I was out on long term disability. So I planned it all for March 2020..... the weekend I was to go back was the first weekend they shut down the plant .... we were out for 2 months. We made more on unemployment than our weekly checks.... and we were being asked to “stay home”. I had 3 months migraine free with very little dizziness. Then when we got back to work Rocky tried to switch jobs .... he’d been working the whole time I was off and had some kind of lung issues he contributed to his job. He ended up not being able to start a new job because of those issues… My issues also increasing because of stress … physical and emotional .... slowly the emergency fund emptied out till we finally nailed what had been going on. Apparently, anxiety and asthma he’s doing better now and we are working on digging ourselves back out. It has been dark though. I know others have it worse, loosing all income and whatnot, and I don’t want to downplay how dark it has been for others..... but it was here. The fact that Rocky wasn’t working.... and that he’d have an attack anytime we had sex lead to where we are now. In that respect we are changed..... also the lack of income has proven that I could pay for things on the most part on my own leading to a new doubling down on paying loans off. So it’s not all bad.
