 Nice to have energy and spunk today. Of course after sleeping over 10 hours last night I can't possibly be tired. (I am tired.) I'm getting stuff done today. Work is going surprisingly easy today which is a change. It's nice when everyone shows up. Laundry is in the dryer. My pasta casserole is delish: it needed 2 jars of alfredo sauce because it's dry but it still tastes seriously good. I'm very happy with it. I wanted to start writing but I can't settle my brain on a story. I have serious ideas and a fairy tale idea but I think I want something that will be personally easier to write and funny.  Like: another God/Satan match. Or angel/demon. Maybe in heaven. Maybe not. One on one. Common goal. But what is it? Something with a child? Something that can go either way.  A revenge demon? Just a regular demon asshole? Brain is sparking. I want a nap.

 It's Mother's Day. I'm doing my Sunday meal prep and popping into my bedroom to do this and look at my budget and be a little obsessive. This week's main meal will be a pasta dish. Bowtie pasta with alfredo sauce, shredded chicken, peas, carrots, onions and cheese. Then I have home made chicken broth (smells divine) for ramen. I have coconut cake for desserts and later I'll make a couple of omelets also. Meal prep is the bomb. Taking the dread of worrying about what to have for dinner: And always making enough to freeze some so there's choices in the freezer too. I've never felt food insecurity but I often lack the ability to take care of myself so this just puts me so far ahead of the game. So I'm having money anxiety really bad right now. I think I'm so used to having that financial terror that it's almost like a default setting. Especially because right now I'm fine. I have enough in checking until next payday, I have enough in my wallet
