I've been down so lately that I thought it was worth celebrating a positive. I used to walk twice a day for 30 minutes each time, but I stopped doing that and haven't walked at all in the past two months since I have been dealing with my mom's issues. I haven't been eating well and gained 5 lbs which made me really feel worse about myself. So I decided to do something about that today. I went for a 15 minute walk this morning (since I am not in 30 minute shape lol) and then for another this afternoon. I am hoping I can get to walking at least 5 days a week. I probably won't get the chance to do it tomorrow which is why I made myself do it twice today.
I also had some other positives. I paid the bills extra early. I went and visited my mom. I finished all of my readings and completed my last assignment for one class. I am now doing the laundry. It wasn't the most jam packed day ever, but it was a good one considering how I've been in such a terrible place.

Many of you know Mr K told me to "shut your mouth" in March 2025 when we took a road trip to Alpena Michigan. Since that time, we have had lots of ups and downs but I have never intentionally hurt Mr K in anyway. And when we first started dating in 2024 he let me know, although he is an engineer by degree, he has an extremely low EQ. Overall, he is ok (not off the charts nice like other guys in...
