Gratitude

The “Hong Kong” Special

Let’s Discuss

Let’s start with the fact I had internet when I left for my doctor appointment at 9 am and returned to no internet. Turns out our modem died. So, I just got back online. That is why there was such a long delay on getting this up today.

I did get a lot of progress completed on my shirt that I am making for myself. That is a plus.

I am having an emotional, rough day. I am feeling very sick of stuff and just drained as a whole. This darn humidifier was the one thing that really brightened my rough day. Ever since my better half broke my small, thrifted Hello Kitty humidifier, I’d been waiting for this one to come in the mail. It came from China via a 3rd party through Walmart’s online market.

I call it the “Hong Kong” special because it is definitely a knock off, but I knew it would be when I ordered it. I was just amused that I had to apply all the Hello Kitty accents to it myself. 😂

Then I did a lot of bill paying. The first thing I did was upgrade my phone service to unlimited data because it is getting used up when I am in my car. Now that I have a smart radio where my radio used to be (think built-in tablet) and I connect to Android Auto so I can listen to my YouTube playlist… I went to check my data on my phone because we had no internet and realized it was almost maxed out with half a month left. I just went ahead and upgraded; I needed to anyway. Now I don’t have to worry about the amount of data used for Maps and music.

I’m still sick. I’m irritated with my boyfriend. I feel undervalued and unappreciated today. My chronic pain is still… painful.

I will say that I did upgrade my blog and my business website to a premium option. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of space for images. I need to look, but I think this option also allows me to make money from advertising on my blog. I cannot remember if it was “premium” or “business.” I’ll look in a bit.

I paid for two years on Stitched Delights and one year here. It was worth it to me.

Oh, the featured image. Before I forget, that is the sign that hangs in my psychiatrist’s waiting room. It is also the mantra I use every morning on my Mental Wellness list. I keep a mental health routine to help me stabilize myself when I feel less than I should. I just knew it was perfect for my gratitude post. I may use it regularly, I am not sure yet.
