My wallet is mainly full of receipts for things I can't possibly return because I already ate them.

Most people's stories are at near end or ending.

Apparently if they're 18 or 40, they already been through all the changes that they all thought they needed.


I cannot relate to that.

Mine just felt like it never started yet.
I still long for more change.

A more permanent change.
A type of change that I want to turnout to be.

I'm still not satisfied.
Still below my standards. Far from the way how I want to be.

And people who thinks I should "accept" the way I am not just never understands.
I've done that since young adulthood -- it led me nowhere but stuck and stagnating.

People just doesn't understand.
And I'm through with most of them.

You don't see many micro machines in charity shops. You'd think there'd be loads of them. Perhaps they all got sucked up people's hoovers in the 90s and are buried in landfill.

I save all of my receipts so that I can review them as needed for future budgeting. I monitor price increases and decreases which determines what I purchase later. For instance, I know exactly what my staple grocery items cost. If one or more of those items increase or decrease during my next shopping excursion, I’ll know and can reference the previous receipts.

It’s very useful to keep receipts, especially on recurring purchases. Looking back over several months or even years can give you great market analysis on any consumer products.

I’m super grateful to my inner guide who encouraged me to do my errands early in the morning today. Now I’m back home and the roads are icy. Shops will be closing early due to the weather.

I can enjoy looking out at the winter wonderland this afternoon.

Few hours ago, during a check up:

Medical staff: How old are you?
Me: 29.
Medical staff: Are you sure? If that's true, dosages would be upped since you're above 18.

"Am I sure??"
"Am I sure??"
"Am I born in the late 2000s instead of mid 1990s??"

You're holding my chart, one based on my own official national ID.
And this is a clinic. Am I in a bar or some liquor store where one would try to use fake IDs to show one is not underaged??


How about just few moments earlier when my mom thought I had a breakbone fever in Highschool.

Huh???
Unless I was still in highschool at age 20, instead of a college graduate with a year long full time job, how was that mixed up??



I don't even feel like a teenager anymore -- thank goodness!! ! :roll: :roll: :roll:
Yet people still mistook me for one??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

The human body is like a filtration system when you think about it

Boxes.

Tiny boxes.

Tiny sectioned boxes.

...

Pill boxes.

4 tiny cells of pill box.

And that is more than enough.

Bought some Squirrel repellent. I hope it works because those damned things chewed through the power line underneath the Nissan. Now it's in the shop getting that repaired and it won't be CHEAP.

900 dollars to fix the Nissan, but at least my yard smells like cooked garlic.

Roasted garlic keeps the squirrels away?
