Monday, February 15 I wasn’t scheduled to work this Monday, which means I have now had the past four days off. It seriously feels like I’m on vacation. If I wasn’t receiving unemployment benefits to compensate for the drop in hours I’ve experienced due to covid, I would probably be extremely upset to have all…

Sunday, February 7 Now that we’re in February, the reality that I’m moving to Maine in April feels closer than ever. I’ve already found someone who might be potentially interested in subletting, and I’ve also started amping up my job search.

Friday, January 29 I’m very proud of myself for *not* procrastinating and actually getting started on my newsletter before the day I’m actually supposed to post it!
