your rent is paid for May, that's great.

One thing at a time.

Also - don't drink.

I really enjoy getting out on my john deere riding mower and just cutting for hours listening to my iPod. Soaking up the sun.....it's very therapeutic for me. I have been trying to surround myself with inspirational books and staying connected with people that I have ignored in the past. I have found that by staying connected with people helps me so much. Even if it's just a quick "hello" text to someone I haven't talked to in awhile. It breaks the loneliness and reclusiveness that I sometimes hide in....I'm so happy you called your aunt
