For some reason this difficult period in my life has made me more creative. I’ve had the most story, character and plot ideas in eight years. I should save them until I have more writing experience in college…
 
Finally got the itch to play New Horizons after not touching the game in weeks. I wonder if today will be the day I finally make those changes to my island…
 
Cutting out sewing patterns is so boring 😴 but I’m excited to hopefully try out some new bodice patterns!

Time is crazy

It's been a full year since I quit my old job, the same job that caused me major depression, started affecting my health, physically and mentally, and because of that I ended up losing some weight. I didn't have any motivation to eat, so I would constantly skip meals, once or twice a day almost daily. I even bought myself my fav foods, sweets, (yes I know unhealthy but some food is better than no food) to try to eat but even those I didn't feel motivated enough to ever finish.

I ended up quitting cause I got sick from a manager who got Covid. I had to call out for two days in a row, somethin I've NEVER done in my two years of working there, then my (other) manager asked me to come in on what was supposed to be my day off, prob fully well knowing I was still sick. With that, plus seeing my BS work schedule for the 4th of July week, plus my manager testing positive for Covid RIGHT at the same time I got sick, kinda sent me over the edge. So I quit instantly. No two weeks notice. I was so tired of going throu it all. I saw I had a biiiig window of opportunity and dove head first. I thought if not now, then I would never quit, because it can't get much more worse than this.

A year later and I'm so much more happier. It took about 2 or 3 months since quitting, (esp since I wasn't actively looking a for a new job while I was at the old one) but I got a new job that I'm still currently at. In late October it'll be a year working this job. I get kisses from dogs almost daily, the work schedule is much more consistent than my old job, the job doesn't take a toll on my mental or physical health, the owner actually cares for her workers, unlike the big corporation job, and I get very minimal customer contact. The most I ever do is say hi or have a nice day, take the dog from them, give back the dog when they pick them up, or help bring a dog out to the customers car. I haven't been depressed since quitting. I actually want to do all my hobbies and have time for them. I eat properly and take care of myself. Life is so much more better than working at the old job.

Anyway yeah time is crazy. Looking back at it, it makes sense but it doesn't feel like a whole year went by since then. Time flies when you're in a better headspace.
 
Still over the moon happy that I found one of those DVD's, been wanting it and to watch the movie for a long time and it's a hella good one. And that handsome dude is in there doesn't exactly make it worse lololol.

Never been to a theater version where you throw bread and cards at the screen, looks fun.

It was a lot of fun, though the ones I went to, a lot of the throwing wasn't allowed anymore since hardly anyone stayed anymore to clean the theater. It was still a hell of a good time doing the audience parts and seeing the local cast perform as the movie played.
 
It was a year ago since I finished studying for my degree. 7 months ago I finally got out of my retail job and into something that was related to my field of study. 7 months ago. Since then I've got an even more relevant job and more experience than I thought I'd get at this time.

it just blows my mind how much has changed over that time, and for the better too
