Wow lots of changes.
I am no longer dangerously anemic. This past Christmas my blood test showed hemoglobin at 62 and ferritin at 3. Not sure how I wasn’t in a coma. But no, I was still biking to work, jogging, spinning, working full days, walking my dog. NO IDEA HOW.
But now I’ve had 2 months of IV iron treatments and i take iron daily and I’m better now.
I’m over the ridiculous crush I had.
I’m quite happy with my boyfriend.
BUT I’M VERY HAPPY LIVING ALONE. I don’t want that to change for a long time. Of all the luxuries I have cut out, paying to live alone is not one I am willing to cut out.
And I’ve been painting and drawing so much lately. I need to work at this. More, more, more more. How to commit the time, the energy, to painting weekly, on top of work and rugby and social life?
I think social life is the thing that needs to be reduced, in favour of more time for art. Rugby provides a kind of social life, so that’ll have to do for now.
And I’m financially planning my future: saving aggressively for 4 years now to top up my RRSPs within 3-4 years, build an emergency fund, and top up my TFSAs as well (tfsa may take a few more years though)
And I’m reducing my clutter, eliminating all luxury treatyoself spending, simplifying my food and cooking, and aiming to find what really matters most.
