REALLY want to legit learn how to sew. I can't just buy myself things for various reasons, so I'm always looking at, like, how to make dinner with random shit around the house, how to alter clothes since they WILL fit differently from 2013 (because I only own old things and hand me downs), how to repair things at home, and I really just want to have things I like to wear without resorting to fast fashion or even shipping stuff to my friends and picking it up that way. I bought one jacket off of amazon as my, like, single purchase of the last five months and I feel really bad about it (which is silly and I know it, but alas), and I just really want to be able to sew actual garments on my own. Do I need another hobby right now? Not really but we'll see.
#vent post. ish???? idk i'm fine! vibing#it's not that I'm super controlled or anything per se re: all of this#though. that is somewhat debatable (it's in good intentions though. overportective rather than controlling)#but just. i have so many people in this house and SOME OF THEM take mail and lose it bc they're confused a lot of the time#so i never order stuff bc i won't get it anyways. but i usually can't even if i want to because#i STILL don't have a credit card. cash only. i operate on gift cards.#i can't drive either#constantly banging my head against the wall trying to gain independence and jump through hoops for it#i'm working on it though. really pushing and my therapist has my back on it.#again. GOOD INTENTIONS in my household. usually. but questionable impact#the GOOD NEWS about that iffy approach is that it's very incentivizing to me to learn life skills on my own quickly#one day. i will be able to do basic things and not have it be ten people's business.#i am only 21. this is fine and normal. I have time. telling myself that I'm 'not THAT behind' until I actually believe it.
