I know recently I have been under alot of pressure and with that will come food cravings. My body's way of coping with this stress of moving out of my apartment. Even though I JUST went grocery shopping on monday, I am still wanting to go out and get food. (Taco Bell) sweatdrop Part of me says to just give in and treat myself, especially if that's what's going to get me through this, the other part of me says no...Thinking about gaining my weight back and trying to save money. I'm not tight on money in any sense, but when it comes to moving, any little bit helps- you know? So it's between this sesame chickpea recipe i made, Parmesan chicken (comes out like alfredo), or Taco Bell (which im leaning towards because i can always eat the other things tomorrow)...decisions decisions lol!
Today I talked to my new roommate. We decided to go ahead with me moving in officially on the 19th. He talked with my mom (which eased her mind alot) and to my step dad. Everyone seems like to like everyone. My mom loves him and said he's nothing like what she thought. He's just an older gentleman with a nice sized spare room. We both are quiet people and enjoy reading a good book, keep to ourselves but generally friendly. I think we'll be alright! So that was pretty exciting to nail down a place to live. Today I should be getting the background check form and in 2-3 days I'll receive the official offer letter.
Today I'm mostly focused on cleaning my bedroom closet out, sorting through clothes, and selling some more of my things that I no longer want/need. It's exhausting. I didn't have much stuff to begin with but actually going through it all item by item is wearing me out lol! I worked on that for about 3 hours and made a nice dent. my room will pretty much be ready to go once I sell the furniture in there. My living room is so empty already from the furniture I've been able to sell. It echoes haha! xp Anytime I want to play my PS4 now, I'm going to have to sit on the floor lol. I'm happy I can atleast access Netflix on my phone so I can go lay in bed for that and be comfortable.
I'm happy that my mom is stepping up the plate to be a support system for me. My step dad as well. They both are super supportive and are willing to help in any way that they can from where they are. My new roomie said to give him a shout if I have any questions or concerns and to just let him know as things progress if there's anything he can help with. The company I'm being hired on for are super supportive as well. The recruiter said to just text her anytime if I have questions or concerns with getting my systems set up or anything about the job. They are understanding that I am coming out of state so nothing is being rushed for me, I'm very thankful for that.
Everything is going so smoothly right now, and I hope it continues that way. I know things could go wrong, but I'm as prepared as I'm going to be. I'm ready to heal and start living my life the way I want to.
