Post a New Entry

Damn, I didn't look, but I know it's been a minute since I've posted a new entry. In fact, I bet it says the very same thing at the top, haha - how it's been a minute. I'm silly. Anyway:

Life has gotten pretty awesome but adulty with a dash of fuckery, and that stresses me out! haha

Well, I'm not sure where I left off last in my life but here's what's going on now.

At the beginning of the month, I was promoted to HR Generalist and got a fat raise! I just wanted to break 50K (omg, I remember I was so impressed when I broke 30K back at Latinworks haha). I actually got 56,5! I was filled with joy and pride. I love what I do and I get paid well for it. What a blessing! I am overwhelmed with gratitude. I'm taking two steps forward, one step back on my debt reducing process, but for the most part, I keep moving in the right direction...I think.

That said, I put a bid on my very own space! It's a cute little duplex in E. Dallas. Everything physically about the space is perfect. I love it, so much. The catch is it's right behind a high school and even in the short while I was there looking at the home, they were up to all kinds of dumb high school shit. I looked up the crime report and basically, it was all vandalism under $100. AY! I'm really scared to move to a new neighborhood, alone, again. Fortunately, it has a huge privacy fence and an alarm system, and maybe now I can get a dogggggyyyy! woof! Also muy fortunate, my Gamma daughter Kitzia, lives in the duplex almost right behind my house! lolz i said "my house." I mean, I should put that out in the universe, right! I won't actually find out if my offer went through until tomorrow or sometime this weekend. Then the real fun begins: inspections, appraisals, lots and lots of money, then finally getting the lenders blessing on my loan and signing my life away! Haha, that's one thing I'm okay with actually. I don't feel sooo committed to this house. I mean that if I wanted to move out in three years from now, I could totally do that. Then I could start My Own real estate empire! muhahaha. I don't actually want an empire, but if my parents are going to inherit me their empire, I might as well start trying to loan the ropes. I don't know what I did to get blessed with humans who could love me so much. It's pretty cray. I hope I do get this duplex not only because I love it, but because the house hunting process has been one of the most stressful and exhausting processes. It to make matters worse, the Dallas market is INSANE right now. I want to be done!

[side note] omg, I'm so glad there is an autosave feature on livejournal! I just closed the window on accident. I remember the days when that feature was not a thing. Those were some sad days. [end note]

I've started feeling incredibly overwhelmed lately to the point that I felt it was necessary for me to start journaling again. I'm glad when I started journaling tonight, I typed out a little list of the things I wanted to write about, otherwise, I'm sure I would have forgotten most of it by now. That reminds me, I finally got diagnosed, from a realllll psychologist, with ADHD. It was very validating, and treatments have been very useful, though I'm still adjusting. (I'm not talking about medication, though they did put me on that too, and yes, it's helped so much.)

I'm exhausted though. I'm peacing out, and I'll continue writing tomorrow. <3
