Ch. 3 March, Pg. 61-62.

Man... The Universe is always there and always showing us, if we're aware. 

Today was the first day of a whole new chapter of life. 

Pg. 61....I came into Friday Hoping for an easy day but haha.. nope. But you know by 2:30 I was ready to leave and though I was set to I didn't until 3. I was having dinner with Lindsey and Candy, I took Tyrell home, it was a good day ultimately. We went to Essen House and Linds is fighting with Mom over renovations in their condo and I'm like... I'm glad I'm not buying or buying with another person. Not my problem. 

What was big about today was I paid rent. I paid rent and bills and I have some left. I am officially independent and that is a wonderful feeling!

It was a decent day and that's what matters! 

Pg. 62. Saturday. It was an interesting day, really. I dragged myself up and decided on coffee and Alicia..I applied for a credit card and I really thought it had arrived there but it did not. But it was perfect timing. Allie and Roger showed up 10 min later and we had a little meeting at the table. By then Tyrell showed up and I was in a good mood. It does humor me when I'm talking to him at that table. It really does. But it worked in his favor and I was in a good mood. I picked up and dropped off and set out for Sturgis. It was the only option as Alicia had planned to come over tomorrow to help clean and unpack stuff. So.. it was go now or never. 

I absolutely got Sonic and set out. I'd also decided I was going to go to Aldi while I was there. I went to Levels and did my business and left my change .. $6 or so worth as a tip. Then I turned out and pulled into Aldi parking lot and realized I didn't keep a quarter... Ugh man! I needed that quarter! So I ripped apart the car and my bag and no quarter. So then I decided I wasn't going empty handed, I have boxes. I'll go in and if I find a box then I'll keep shopping.

So in I went. And there was a decent mushroom box and I picked it up. Then I walked down the aisle and found a better box. Handles with a bag of apples ready for me! So I carried it around and filled it up. 

and it wasn't such a struggle to carry! It was heavy, for sure but I was not struggling, I was rather proud to be honest! Damn proud. So I headed home, realized I still needed a store so I went to Kroger. I spend more than I intended but I got food, I was tired of my things being so empty, I needed it. 

I got home, out things away and talked to Mom. She sent me several things including my cute tool box! And a can opener lol and all things I definitely needed. I can find none of my pans and I have an insane amount of Tupperware 😂. I'm trying not to worry about my pans. 

So that made it necessary to think. I used my Tupperware pasta cooker for my medium shell pasta and sauce was made in the skillet. I had picked up ground sausage and put half in a pan and half in the freezer. I continued forward. 

Easily four meals made, two casserole dishes..

one in the fridge and one to eat.

im absolutely not disappointed in my decision to cook. Delicious..

it was a good day!
