  • I used my loan money to pay off my CC bill. I moved the money I saved for Christmas into the loan money account as a mitigation. 

    I might have to lend my sister the flight money over. I mean I don't know if things are that bad yet but I want to be prepared for it all. 

    I am so tired. and so frightened. And deeply grateful for my friends both here and in real life.
