1 Quart of Milk
I’ve been craving milk, chocolate, and oranges as of late. It’s odd, but easily fixed. I have some emergency mandarin oranges stashed on the front door table. And I was able to buy milk this evening when I went to pick up my meds.

I’ll be honest: I was going to put this off until June. But I need all the help I can get, and my therapist thinks this is a good idea so, here we go:
I’m going to be doing a blog entry a day, as per usual, but including a self-love journal prompt. And I’m going to publish these on the interwebs, which gives me no small amount of anxiety.
