Unbelievable.

Packages, coming in, from Philadelphia, somewhere in Florida, and California.  Said they would be here today, but that... wasn't possible.  Here.  Today.  Okay.  I won't argue with reality or honest assessments.  Just... didn't look possible.  I don't mind being pleasantly surprised.  I just don't expect to be.

I paid the card off, that bought all the goodies.  Cut my mortgage payment, currently, to just what is owed.  Have a savings started.  Took one of the cards off accounts, and will be paying that off as quickly as possible, while cutting spending and increasing savings.  Yes.  The hope is to have a small heap of cash for an exit strategy.  Though, to get the eyes fixed?  And get sorted out how to leave.

Lots of tricks, traps, perils, expenses, and... other things.

Oh, it wasn't six months supply of cat food I bought.  It was a year.  I have an half year, or so, in storage.  I just... wasn't thinking straight.  But... all good.  That is of of wet, canned, food.  I plan, next month, to buy dry kibbles.  I have quite a few boxes of treats.  Not sure how long those, or the dry food, last.  But... In good shape.  Cat litter last month, maybe more next month, too.  Ugh.  But... yeah.

I need to call the doctor.  Never did get back to them, or they to me, about bloodwork.  And, I should have an appointment coming up, but haven't seen when or heard from them.  Eye appointment coming up.  I did hear from the dental, local.  But, no.  Haven't gotten clearance, yet.  They were more worried about getting provisions for as many x-rays as they could take.  Must be able to charge a boatload for those.  Do need x-rays, been a long time.  Then again, I haven't had a cavity for... since 1993.  Meh.  Still, it's... been... five years?  Though, not sure I should let them.  I don't think they could do anything even if they found cavities.

Ugh.

I also found where to get a haircut.  The wife of friend works there.  I found out how they arrange it.  When... my schedule works to get in, while she is working, I'll give it a whirl.  I think, possibly, in a few days.  If I get a friends and family discount, I'll just give that as tip.  We'll see.  If it works, I could get in twice a month, and keep the appearances a bit more trim.  Pun not intended, if not completely unconsidered?  Maybe.

So tired.  Just had some burger.  The burger was long in the tooth, couldn't finish what I cooked.  I... think I'll just toss the rest of it, that is uncooked.  And toss any other meat in there.  I've... pushed.  That meat was let stand just too long, while I tried to get out for propane.  Yeah.  Hoping it won't make me ill.  I'll get fresh out, tomorrow.

Trying to push through for a bit longer.

While I'm not doing much, for work.  I am getting quite a few things checked off the more passive list of things to do.  I have done some laundry.  I am showering nearly daily, if not today.  I'm... trying.  Wonderful, if exhausting.  I'll sort through things, life, boxes, time.

Tomorrow I will begin the process of obtaining my birth certificate, and attempting to obtain a new ss card.  As well, begin seeing about a visa and visa id.  I am certain I will be kept in a holding loop for as long as government workers can do it, between needs and wants and just whatever else.  Yeah.  As well, I may begin exploring laser eye surgery.  Perhaps seeking a clinical exam, to see what might be possible, and costs.

I'd best get to it.  I really wish there was a way to get a motorcycle license, too.  Before I go.  Much... better to have one before you get there.  Testing, with language issues... driving tests there?  Lots of problems.  Much easier here.  Cheaper?  I can't see how, unless I can find a rather inexpensive bike in good condition.  I just... I'm not sure that is even possible.  Still, I may begin looking in on that, too.  Ugh.

Tick-tock, tick-tock... not just for women anymore.

A bit more gaming, as I get ready for bed.  Goodnight, and day.
