You’re healing every time you

get out of bed because there’s something you’re excited about.

don’t think about people who left.

clean the clutter in the room and dishes in your sink.

smile at yourself and random people.

do something kind and out of the blue to make someone happy.

work out or meet with friends even though you have no energy to.

calm yourself down when you’re thoughts race.

remember to drink water.

don’t dwell on things you can’t control.

do things good for yourself, even though you have no motivation.

tell yourself that you’re growing from this, and you won’t feel like this forever.

with no context and full accountability, here is where my money in July 2018 went

I started a side blog mostly because there’s over 5 years of embarrassing emotional stuff on this one and also i’m obsessed with personal finance lately and this is my latest version of me Fixing Things

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed and helpless when things are happening around you that are out of your control, whether it’s in the world at large or something a little closer to home. Remember, though, that you can exercise control over your immediate surroundings, and that taking a few minutes to get your personal environment a little bit in order can make you feel a lot better.

In other words, go wash some dishes, put some laundry away, or pick up that mess you’ve been ignoring. It’ll help, even if you can’t control much else right now.

You’re telling your own story: You graduated college and you’re a grown-ass woman now. Tina Fey is your hero; Beyoncé, your preacher. You know how to take care of you. You’ve learned self-defense. If any man ever hit you, you’d rip his eyes out. You’ve seen Mad Men, and if anyone ever sexually ha

I ask for your hand in it

Some infinite understanding

But I don't know nothing of what I'm asking

I've no idea of what it will entail

I asked for your hand

Like it was too intimate to ask for your mind

Or to count on kindness

Like I count on your presence

Like I don't count on nothing else

Oh, it was always a marriage

From the moment that you stepped into my hallway

Shy as anyone I'd ever known

Curious and alone

hi internet, here’s a soft roll out of what I’m working on now 

[jmrich0109]

When your animal crossing avatar is as much of a sad girl as you

[jmrich0109]

money’s been tough this fall, like really tough, and i’ve done some hard work i should be proud of, and there is progress (!) but it’s going to be a long slog til freedom and the only thing that will get me there is consistency. 

but one thing i’m grateful for is as i’ve been practicing this, i’ve learned the difference between wants and needs better and even though i don’t have what i had before, the things i want or wish for are much smaller now. it is definitely a brain retraining and once you really test yourself, it works. 

i’d say my number one wish for christmas would just be a gel manicure (i miss them) especially with a friend and maybe an outfit to feel pretty in.
