Oh Say Can You See 1 Thing 2 Do

Thursday is a great day to do that 1 thing you don’t want to do but also don’t want to continue thinking about doing. When Thursday is a national holiday, Wednesday is a perfectly fine day to do stuff, too.

My 1 thing for tomorrow is to celebrate freedom. My 1 thing for today is to make a deposit to a savings account and then take a screenshot of it and send it to my therapist. Since I got a second job, I’m now paying him closer to his full rate, but still not his full rate. We agreed that the difference between his rate and what I pay will go in a savings account. But I haven’t done that yet, even though I think about it every day. [REASON IS: I have been cashing my new checks instead of depositing them and having cash money just really makes me feel very comfy and secure.] [And then I spend it.] [Which also feels comfy and secure.]

ANYWAY, yesterday as I was leaving my sesh, he asked, “Have you been putting aside money like we agreed?” And I said, “Um, no, but I think about it a lot,” and he said, “That’s bullshit.” And he was right. So, fixing that.
