Just checking in, how are you doing?
Am okayish. Have a thing to go to this morning. Managed a bit of a trip (food and shopping up some socks and better walking shoes) yesterday, though it ended up kinda stressy for normaller reasons than the usual reasons that things stress me >.<; Lot of walking (well, for me. Wearing flats. :-\ ), hunams everywhere, missed a bus, that kind of thing. Got a little more accustomed to the bus system here, at least. Discovered that some drivers will try to launch me to the back the instant I step onto the bus 😅 😒
It's all baby steps right now, really :-\ I'm the sort of janky critter wot needs meds just to make it out the door so the difficulty of everything gets multiplied a few times before I even start :-\ Probably wouldn't have made it to the bus stop without them. For reference, there's a bus stop right out front of this place I'm currently at. I could fall down the little sloped area over there 👉 and just about roll onto a bus. 😮💨 Oh well, I guess. Hopefully some things work out.
*happy mews and hugs *
I'm really glad to hear you're making progress, the normal stress sounds so much more managable than at your old place!
Baby steps are still steps, I'm proud of you for getting out and doing stuff even if you need meds for it 😸
Managed to get at least one of my prescriptions sent up here :3 Rest should follow soonish. Also got onto TextNow in case I lose phone service. 🐭 squeaky skittery lil steps
Thanks for being all sweet an' stuff :3 squeaky mews and hugglifications Kinda weird to hear of critters being proud of me for normal stuff, even though it's actually really hard for me 😅 Is a weird life.
Yeah, well, I'm a weird critter myself and I think there's no greater victory than living authentically despite the haters. 😸
