I sat in my car and cried when I got home from work today. I’m so afraid of losing my job. I’m so frustrated that it seems like I’m not getting a second stimulus payment. I’m so tired of being tired again.

I didn’t get the ten thousand words written that I wanted to today. I got lost down a rabbit hole of research. It is highly unlikely I will hit 50,000 words this month. I could cheat, and just say that I did it, but I’m not going to.

I’m sleep deprived. And took my sleeping medication that didn’t work last night. So I’m fighting to stay awake long enough to knock this out.
I’m still behind in NaNoWriMo, but I haven’t given up yet. I’ve got my therapy appointment with Mx. Steph tomorrow at eleven, so I’m going to spend most of my day writing if I can.
I’m goi to go appease the Duolingo owl and go to bed.
Take your meds folks.

Had therapy today. Didn’t feel too great before it and felt even worse after it. I tried doing art or playing video games to distract myself. It didn’t work.
I’m tired of things being so difficult. It’ll get better, I know. But I feel like Im fighting an uphill battle right now and it’s exhausting.
I’m going to bed.
Take your meds, folks.

We have a tiny nightshade plant growing in a crack in the ground on our balcony. I’d take a picture, but it’s dark out. When I remember to do so, I will.
