I’m sitting here waiting for ACT to deliver my medicine and possibly give me my injection and it snowed this morning. I’m bored and I’m trying to find ways to entertain myself.
I promised a entry every day, so here is day two. I have no plans for the day and I really want some coffee but can’t get any. 😔
So I was homeless for 8 months which I stayed at a shelter twice and couch hopped mostly, then I got linked up with RSI who found me this 2 bedroom apartment that I have been living in since March. I found a roommate which has been helping me with the rent and food and I’m still linked with ACT which is for my mental health.
I am still single but I have male friends, I haven’t been posting on social media lately. I lost everything when I became homeless and now only have furniture because of RSI and clothes because of my mom. I lost a ton of weight and my clothes are mostly too big.
I’m probably not going to do anything for the holidays, they cut food stamps in new York State because of the government shut down. My health has been okay but my asthma has put me in the ER four times in the last six months.
I’m using my friends wifi and I can’t play any games, watch movies or go on TikTok cause she gets pissed so I guess I’ll just try to blog every day and try to revamp my website via my phone. I still don’t have a laptop since mine was stolen by my ex in October of 2023.
I mostly sit in the apartment bored and try to fill my day up with reading and writing. I have writers block and haven’t written anything in a long time. My phone is off and has been off since July. I’m going to turn it back on in January I believe.
Nothing really has been going on the last couple of months, I’m going to start blogging a couple of times a week to keep y’all updated.
So I’ve decided to do Nanowrimo next month or rather attempt to do it, I am going with an idea that I have had in my head for a couple of months now and hopefully I will be able to complete it. I am in the prepping and outlining process. I will keep you all updated.
My best friend and I are supposed to go out to dinner with my mom, next week, but this morning I woke up feeling like shit and I really hope it is just a cold or a stomach bug. Not Covid! I have managed to avoid it for this long and I am hoping to keep the streak going. However, I will take a test and since I have been around my BFF, I will have her take one as well. Hopefully they both come out negative and I feel better by early next week.
I had my injection today, so I called and cancelled my taxi and the appointment, but I did keep my psych appointment because it was via video chat. The appointment went well and we decided that my all my meds would go to the same pharmacy that my side effect medication for my injection goes too.
I have been making a lot of TikTok’s lately, most of them have been about my crazy FWB which I am working on a blog post about. He is driving me crazy and has been showing a lot of characteristics about himself that I really don’t like. Honestly, I am thinking about cutting him out of my life all together.
Besides all of that, I am doing good. My mental health has been great lately, I am taking all of my medication and have been streaming a lot of TV and movies. Halloween Ends, came out today and I signed up for the peacock at the beginning of this month in preparation for today. My best friend and I are supposed to stream it tonight, I am so excited.
The last new movie we streamed was Hocus Pocus 2 which was amazing, I liked it a lot. Even more than the first movie.
I am trying to be better about blogging and updating, I have a new to me, but used laptop that I just bought a new battery for and was finally able to connect to my personal wifi. Hopefully I can finish the blog post I am working on and get it published as well as plan out some new blog posts and updated other area’s of my site.
So I’ve moved into a new apartment in August, it’s a lot bigger then my old apartment although it is also a studio. A month after I moved I’m they renovated my apartment and put me up in a hotel for three weeks as well as gave me money for transportation and food. The new renovations look really good, they are working on the last few apartments on every floor now (there are 12 floors, I’m on 6). They are also renovatioing the hallways too.
I’ve been dealing with a lot, I’m struggling with some stuff mentally and it’s been really hard to concentrate lately. I signed up for a couple of interesting courses through Coursera and it’s been helping keep my mind off things. I am keeping my mental health appointments through zoom although the office I go to tried to force me to come in person. My therapist appointments are via zoom so I didn’t understand why my psychiatrist appointments couldn’t be.
I contacted my case manager and had her advocate for me, and now I have all zoom appointments except for my injection which is in person. My mom and I are going out to dinner once a month again and we will probably go next week. We went to Applebee’s last month and I updated her on everything. I don’t remember if I blogged about why I moved so I’ll recap.
I got in altercation with some neighbors in my old building why I was off my meds and I was basically sent to the hospital. I stayed for two weeks before I was released. A couple of weeks after I got out, two neighbors were fighting in the hallway and decided it would be a great idea to try to kick my door in. I called the cops several times and they said they couldn’t do anything even though one of the times they caught the person in action.
The next day I packed a bag and went to Ds mom’s house where I basically lived for 8 months until I found this apartment. The rent is higher here but I can manage. A month after I moved in, D’s mom got new furniture and gave me her old set (a sectional, a couch and a love seat), I wouldn’t been able to fit all of it into my old apartment.
I had to do a recovery on my laptop to fix the issue that I couldn’t play the sims. I can play now. Im so sorry I haven’t been blogging more often. I’ll probably blog once a week from now on.
So it’s been awhile since I blogged, I’ve been so stressed out over finding an apartment. I definitely need my own space again. Well I’ve found one and was just waiting for the background and credit check to go through.
Yesterday I got the call, I was approved for the apartment. Now I just have to wait for BMHA who I get section 8 through to inspect and approve my voucher. I also have to apply for a security agreement through social services.
I’ve been doing a lot of self care and self growth recently. I want to get back into skincare but I think I’m going to wait until I’m in my own some again. It’s been stressful here.
Hopefully I can get back into blogging more regularly.
