alatefelineI've been a bit more on top of some things the last few days. CN: anxiety, brain weasels, executive dysfunction, paperwork stress, career stuff, extra college yay, living situation during covid I've made a bit of progress towards applying for my teaching license here and also towards registering for classes to re-license if they don't count my experience, if I can fund that (realistically, if parents/relatives and/or another stimulus check fund that, or it'll be...awhile...but eventually yesss). I've been very anxious about it, but not too anxious to function, and I'll take that. Having meds helps. Having coping strategies helps. Covid lockdown does not help, but oh well.
On to Gratitudes! I've got a theme this time. Knitting with spare yarn. Making patches for a hat with recycled fabric. Embroidering with scrap wool. Making a computer box/temporary lap desk out of cardboard. Using cut-up plastic bottles for plant pots. Transplanting volunteer edible plants normally considered weeds where they won't be weed-whacked and can grow tasty bits for my lunch. Mulching with fallen leaves. Edging garden beds with gathered sticks. Kleptocratic-authoritarian-capitalism hates me because I like making things out of 'trash.'
Also, discussing a show with my parents. Making risotto with my mom. Singing along while my Dad plays the guitar. Going for a walk. Cuddling my kitty. Sending cat pictures to friends via text and Dreamwidth post. None of these make money. All of them are precious.
