What Day is Today?….It’s Hump Day

Posted on by Gertie

As I stated in my last blog post I was having some high anxiety over money that the bank did. I learned it was mostly not my fault. The bank manager will be helping with setting a budget for my monthly bills. He really didn’t have to do this but he did. I will be doing monthly budgets within one month and then do a check in to see how things are going. The branch manager at the bank I go to is beyond awesome. So the money situation should be fixed for now.

On the plus side, I set up a veterinarian appointment for my precious cat, Billie Dean. I love Billie so very much. I love him to the moon and back. Billie doesn’t mind going just as long as there are treats for him. He also loves the extra love he gets from everyone. They treat him very well there and that makes me happy.

Something else that makes me happy is I got some art and crafty stuff from Amazon. I would really like to start them now but I really need to create a schedule so I can clean my apartment the way it needs to be not just for me but for my precious cat, Billie as well. I am planning on purging some things in my life and of course getting more creative stuff within reason of course.

Of course, I will be doing some workbooks for my own recovery so when I present a group on a certain workbook, I can let clients know that I did do the workbooks. I hope what I am planning on doing works well for me, my cat, my current home and my job.

I do not have much more to say. Thank you for reading my blog. I am grateful for you because you read my blog. Peace Out, World!!

Out of Work Today Due to Anxiety Acting Up

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! Right now, I should be arriving at work especially since I need to be attending a new employee orientation where all new employees are required to take. Sadly, due to a mishap with my bank once again, I am having major panic attacks over it to where I needed to take my anxiety meds which is a controlled substance. My work frowns upon needing to take those types of meds when you are working as you need to be on full alert. I did let my supervisors know that I would not be in today. I just worry I will get fired because I’ve already missed three days counting today and I’ve only been with my new employee for just over a month now. I’m sure I have nothing to worry about at this moment in time with work or they would have informed me by now or I would hope they would have.

The thing I am most worried about is the money situation I am having with my bank. I thought it was taken care of and it was at one point in time. Now it is screwed up again. I did call the bank to see if I could get it fixed. They said it is now taken care of but I will still go to the bank I regularly go to, to make sure it is taken care of. Even though the nice banking people on the phone were helpful, I just want to make sure it is fully taken care of when I go into the bank. Messing with people’s money is no joke and I know my bank with help with the money situation as communication styles were challenging specifically on my end.

Of course the lack of sleep last night did not help much with my anxiety around my money in my bank account this morning. It was quite a shocker when the same banking issue arises again as you barely wake up from a not so good night of sleep. Having insomnia sucks and waking up to money issues that were supposed to be taken care of already suck.

Good thing I have my cat, Billie Dean by my side to help with my anxiety especially when I go to the bank. No Billie will not go to the bank with me. He will help me with decreasing my anxiety before I go to the bank. Hopefully, this will help with everything.

I do not have much more to discuss in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be writing my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Sleepless in Seattle Once Again

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I am having a challenging time being able to sleep and it sucks shit. My grandma did five years ago and Valentines Day. Even though I never liked Valentines Day before my grandma passing away, her death just made me hate it even more. I just want one more hug from my grandpa however my cat Billie Dean gives me great hugs.

On to the hugs from my cat, Billie, he is helping with some art work. He is choosing what coloring book to color from and then the picture. So, I am hoping the picture I color that Billie chose comes out well.

On to a similar topic I ordered some crafty stuff. I ordered latch hook and cross stitching stuff to help ease my mind and do something with my hands. I figured I can learn new things like latch hook and cross stitching.

Something else I am learning is tarot cards. I am reading two books about tarot cards as well as the little bookletts in tarot boxes. I know I must sound nuts about learning tarot but if it can help with my recovery then I am all for it.

I do not have much more to say in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog post. I greatly appreciated it. I hope every has better sleep than I did. Peace Out, World!!!
