It’s one of those weeks I can’t believe I’m off my medication.
Haven’t had a meltdown at work. A ton of candy orders and they fucked up our app so the seasonal aisles are out of order and picking candy is difficult and tedious. Plus the displays are flimsy and off-balance and I keep spilling candy. This kind of thing normally wears me down quickly so I’m relieved I managed to keep it together.
Made plans with friends and actually stuck to them! Even though it required me to clean my nasty kitchen! We carved pumpkins and got to play with each other’s cats.
I also got some quality time in with my niece, although I’m a little disappointed because it cut into my time at the zine fest that I’d been planning to go to for three months. Told everyone I had shit to do and we had to leave, but no one listened. 🥲 Got about 30 minutes before the fest shut down, I tried to meet some artists but it was rushed.
Still, my niece will have good memories of her aunts coming together for a trip to the library and a craft day.
Somehow I forgot the biggest advancement: Miss Shirley, my 10yo cat, is walking on a leash now! There are still some hiccups; she won’t go outside if there are other people nearby, or if she can hear dogs barking. But she’s been making progress really fast. She actually meows at the door now, she wants to do it instead of hating it.
