So much is going on... My hand is getting worse and worse.. Today I got a really bad nosebleed out of nowhere and had to call an ambulance.. I keep having to leave work.. I couldn't even go to dancing because I couldn't drive, I've missed so much and I'm so unprepared for concert.. To add to that I keep getting told off for stuff that isn't even related to me, and when I try to defend myself I get told I'm delusional.. I'm trying my best to do better but all these issues are undermining everything.. I don't even know if anything is worth it anymore.

I give up I give up I give up I give up I give up
#i dont want to live anymore#not if everyone is just lying to my face#not if every question i ask is a stupid question#not if i am getting trashed#not if i never get told something is wrong#if i don't know it's broken i can't fix it#well guess what#you win#i am done

House is clean! And I just realised I've only had a coffee today and nothing else. Oops.
Meeting with boss boss was okay; got a bit emotional but got my point across. Also need to send him an email later.
Finished paying for our new bed. Just got to get cash out for the delivery, and pick up our new sheets from the PO.
I finally called today to cancel my old bank acct and link up the new ones - finances are sorted!
Now back at home; I’ve put away dry clothes, hung up wet laundry, chucked dirty laundry in the hamper where it should be (not the floor!!), and got the majority of rubbish out of our room (how he goes through so much crap I do not know..). It only took about an hour.
Now to tackle the rest of the house. Got to clean the kitchen, mop and vacuum the floors, and then I’ll come back to sorting out our room. Preparing for a deep clean before our new bed arrives!
Ready.. Set.. Go!

Trying to write a summary of issues with examples for my meeting with big boss on Friday, and it's much longer than I thought. I hope we can still properly talk about everything.

Broke af?
But still interested in feeding yourself? What if I told you that there’s a woman with a blog who had to feed both herself and her young son…on 10 British pounds ($15/14 Euro) per week?
Let me tell you a thing.
This woman saved my life last year. Actually saved my life. I had a piggy bank full of change and that’s it. Many people in my fandom might remember that dark time as when I had to hock my writing skills in exchange for donations. I cried a lot then.
This is real talk, people: I marked down exactly what I needed to buy, totaled it, counted out that exact change, and then went to three different stores to buy what I needed so I didn’t have to dump a load of change on just one person. I was already embarrassed, but to feel people staring? Utter shame suffused me. The reasons behind that are another post all together.
AgirlcalledJack.com is run by a British woman who was on benefits for years. Things got desperate. She had to find a way to feed herself and her son using just the basics that could be found at the supermarket. But the recipes she came up with are amazing.
You have to consider the differing costs of things between countries, but if you just have three ingredients in your cupboard, this woman will tell you what to do with it. Check what you already have. Chances are you have the basics of a filling meal already.
Here’s her list of kitchen basics.
Bake your own bread. It’s easier than you think. Here’s a list of many recipes, each using some variation of just plain flour, yeast, some oil, maybe water or lemon juice. And kneading bread is therapeutic.
Make your own pasta–gluten free.
She gets it. She really does. This is the article that started it all. It’s called “Hunger Hurts”.
She has vegan recipes.
A carrot, a can of kidney beans, and some cumin will get you a really filling soup…or throw in some flour for binding and you’ve got yourself a burger.
Don’t have an oven or the stove isn’t available? She covers that in her Microwave Cooking section.
She has a book, but many recipes can be found on her blog for free. She prices her recipes down to the cent, and every year she participates in a project called “Living Below the Line” where she has to live on 1 BP per day of food for five days.
Things improved for me a little, but her website is my go to. I learned how to bake bread (using my crockpot, but that was my own twist), and I have a little cart full of things that saved me back then, just in case I need them again. She gives you the tools to feed yourself, for very little money, and that’s a fabulous feeling.
Tip: Whenever you have a little extra money, buy a 10 dollar/pound/euro giftcard from your discount grocer. Stash it. That’s your super emergency money. Make sure they don’t charge by the month for lack of use, though.
I don’t care if it sounds like an advertisement–you won’t be buying anything from the site. What I DO care about is your mental, emotional, and physical health–and dammit, food’s right in the center of that.
If you don’t need this now, pass it on to someone who does. Pass it on anyway, because do you REALLY know which of the people in your life is in need? Which follower might be staring at their own piggy bank? Trust me: someone out there needs to see this.
