Post something that made you UNHAPPY today.

I think I worry in case I won't be able to pay my direct debits. Apparently my bank can charge you if you go below £0.00, which is a pretty dumb rule because how can you pay more when you haven't got the money? Sometimes it's not your fault your money gets eaten up, especially when you live in a city where it's so easy to get a fine because things aren't clearly sign-posted on where you're allowed to park or drive.

It's like the government want to make the poor poorer then punish us if we don't have the money. It just isn't fair and it doesn't help with anxiety and mental health.

Somehow already have a headache from not taking my meds. Oof.

Yeah, sad. The two adults are both female. I forget how it happened but this was their chance to increase the flock. Things were dragging on but... to everyone's amazement these two fluffy, yellow chick's hatched. Sad and a slightly disturbing anti climax.

Maybe, just maybe when I go into work today the chick that was handed over to a human will be alright.

Already having to resist the urge to go buy alcohol.

Intense feelings.

The store was busy before Canada day.

Being poor is stressful and expensive. It's stupid, but reality. Banks here charge overdraft fees to and then tack on extra every day you're in the negative. You can end up owing hundreds after a few days if you start off a couple dollars in the negative because of something like an atm fee someone forgot to consider (I had an ex who did that to me a few times). That stuff always blew my mind. Same here with reconnect fees. Like if you can't pay your water or power bill one month, they charge you something crazy like $100 to turn it back on if they shut you off for non payment on top of late fees. And you can't even ask for help from local organizations or govt. organizations with paying your water or power until it's shut off because you're considered a non emergency. Most non essential companies charge late fees to, so if you have to fix your car or something and you're late on, say a credit card or student loan payment because of it, you 'll pay for that the next month and be behind on something else that you'll pay for the next month and the cycle continues on. This kind of stuff makes me nutty. I agree, it isn't fair. And truth, it does no one any good to stress money stuff...it's no good for overall health and wellbeing. And it seems so unnecessary to me. How hard is to not penalize the crap out of people who are barely getting by in the first place? It's like the odds are so stacked against you.

Well. That was a bit of a tirade, huh?


While I'm here...the air quality outside is dangerous again for high risk groups as well as times today it will be dangerous for everyone. I'm feeling it again today. My lungs feel heavy and I'm coughing, the dog is coughing like crazy to. I still have random skin rash crap from it as well. My oldest daughter has the same stuff going on with her. I feel bad for her though, she's way closer to Detroit than I am and they're getting hit extra hard lately. From what I read, this whole month might play out like this. Between the smoke and the ozone, it's rough out here. I can't imagine how brutal it has to be for people in Canada. This stuff is crazy.

Today I tried out this cafe that a friend recommended to me... the carrot cake tasted more like gingerbread than carrot cake and the cafe's toilet's walls were covered in stickers of political movements... a few stickers that show where the owners stand would've been fine, or if the stickers weren't so clearly one sided, but since the wall was full of one and the same it kind of gave off the air of "if you don't think exactly like us, you're not welcome here." And this was in a place that had a "this is a discrimination free zone" sign up.

Well, THAT'S pretty ironic and hypocritical, don't you think? :/

My Unrewarding job bothering me to come in on my off days because the coworkers are too lazy.

My mom accused me of making myself sick on purpose.

(I've been having a really bad cough since the beginning of this week, but have been taking medicine. )

high school disabled my google account today. I'm not even graduating! All my docs and youtube recommendations...I'll probably have to wait a month for school to start up again to get it back

Well not unhappy, I'm not traumatised, or maybe I am but in The Witcher series 3 episode 3, this happens:

^ Not reading that spoiler, I'm waiting for the series to finish before binging it.

My sleeping prescription wasn’t ready, so it’s probably going to be a sucky couple of days. The pharmacy will be closed tomorrow on account of July 4th.
