Last week was... rough. I don't know if it's just the state of things or just... everything... but it was rough, and I don't think I am alone in that.

I cancelled pre-paid plans on Thursday because I just couldn't deal with being around people. Managed to get a refund for most of it back, so yay.

But then I depression/anxiety window shopped late into the night and spent more money on clothes. Not a lot of money, but I hadn't budgeted it or planned for it.

I'm trying to do better but I felt that mini-spiral happen. It wasn't as bad as it could have been. My restraint muscles are growing, but they're not perfect.

Anyway, we are into a new month now. That doesn't change much, really, but it feels like a relief that January is over.

On the plus side, we spent less than $400 in food last month! But I am trying to focus on the pandemic stash – either use it up or throw it out it it's no longer edible. Our big freezer needs to be thawed and cleaned out because I'm pretty sure the gasket isn't sealing that well, but our other freezers are also jam-packed so the only way to make space is to eat it!
