god im so excited guys aaaaaah! I have work on monday. living in a society where I have to work to survive sucks but oh boy is my sense of self worth tied to whether or not I can contribute financially to my family. yikes
#like yeah having money to buy like. games or crochet supplies or cake or whatever is nice#but if I don't help my parents pay for rent and water and all the necessities I feel like I deserve to die and it's. not great#but literally just working 2 days a week is enough for me to feel like a good person#is this healthy? fuck no! probably I should address this shit in therapy. however. it is also my reality#ALSO.#why can I not be my own household for food stamps until I'm 22. what's that about#like. I promise nothing is going to change between now and february like. wtf just let me apply man#can't apply now bc I count as just part of my parents' household even though if I was 22 I could be my own household instead#and my parents haven't been on foodstamps in years bc they hate having to do the paperwork#literally my dad got a job after being unemployed for years bc my mom told him he could handle the paperwork that year lmao#so trying to get them to do it now would just be. no#but I know I would be fine to do it for myself and I probably will end up doing it as soon as I turn 21#22*#but for now I guess I just have to deal with $600/month or less :/#which is literally like. well $400 of that goes to my parents. I'd like to save at least $100#so less than $100 for personal expenses. like food and entertainment. ugh#which like. that budget has been $0 for the last couple months so I know I CAN do it if I have to but it just sucks#with my last job I spent more like $100/week on food and entertainment#but alas#I won't be going out to eat much. maybe twice a month if I'm frugal or get extra hours#ugh it'll be tight. but I'll make it work
