Week in READview:
Last week I didn’t want to do another post about unemployment, no money and stress, so I skipped it. On Tuesday I FINALLY got my back pay and my extra for the 4 weeks that I missed and got my payment for that week. So today I will claim again and can now focus on upgrading skills and other stuff and not stressing about how I am going to pay the bills or pay for groceries! Fingers crossed it stays this way!
In other news, it snowed again…for like 3 days but thankfully it was only about 5 inches. It is suppose to snow again on Monday and I have about had it with snow this season. Good news is after Monday the weather seems to be taking a nice turn to the Upper 40s and even a few days of 50s so everything is going to melt and we will probably drown.
Now that things are settling into a new normal for me, I plan to get back to doing posts for the blog. I just couldn’t focus before so I am glad to have that focus back to be able to start living life again without worry. I have a few posts ideas and hope to organize a good schedule and get drafting to prepare for March. I have had some design work that has also kept me pretty busy and still working on some other stuff but I am always available if anyone needs anything *whispers* see below! 🙂
This week coming up I am planning to get organized (again), do some blogging posts and finish up some designs. Jumping back into creating more of a routine to help me make the most out of a day.
We also celebrate these two, Auggie (orange) and Calliope (torte)! We got them 3 years ago on Feb 16th,
drove to Brooklyn to pick them up. The first time driving there, it was the best decision we ever made!

I needed a distraction this week so I read 3 Monster erotic books, they helped. Sometimes those quick reads, even the ones about yeti sex, are just what I need to get better focused when it comes to reading.

Ugh I am over the cold and snow! We went sledding today to see my niece but man was it freezing. I’m ready for spring. I like the cold but not quite this much. 🙂
Glad the unemployment thing came through. Stressing about money and bills is the worst.
Love your cats!!
Take care this week Michelle!!!
I am so glad the unemployment $ has come through! What a relief, so glad you have some breathing room again and now hopefully some better weather ahead!
Yay! Glad your backpay came in and you can focus beyond the stress of those needs. Ah, I love seeing that your cats are still a joy.
Have a good week, Michelle!
I am so glad to see that you have received some much awaited backpay. What a horrible stress finances are, especially when things are such a mess as they are for so many right now. I hope everything stays as it should and you can have a longterm reprieve from the stress of it all.
Happy kitty anniversary. I am a cat person myself, and have two here.
Thank goodness the back pay finally showed up. What a relief. I had to laugh at the yeti sex story. Now that’s a new one on me! LOL
I am thrilled you got your unemployment straightened out finally. My daughter just got her 2019 tax refund, only about 10 months later this week. Have a great week with your new plans and off to your future!

Oh I’m so happy you got unemployment sorted! What a load off that must be. And Happy gotcha day to the kitties. Have a great week!
I’m so glad you finally got the unemployment straightened out! What a mess that was!
And hooray for monster erotica! 😉
I am glad it is hopefully behind me. I can now focus on my design work and also figuring out what I want to do.
Monster Erotica is my favorite! lol
What a relief to finally have that unemployment figured out! I hope you can have some peace of mind moving forward and can start to really focus on what you want to do next! And yay for yeti love lol!
Aww 3 years with Auggie and Calliope! It seems like just yesterday that you got them!
Have a great week 🙂
YES! I just chatting with your brother about figuring some stuff out with UI/UX design. So I am hoping to start figuring things out soon.
Yeti love is the best love. lol
Me and Julia drove to Brooklyn to get them . I can’t believe it’s 3 years with them. Poppy will be 1 in march and here 1 year in July. Animals grow up just as fast as kids!
I’m so glad for you that your financial position has finally eased.
Happy Forever home day to Auggie and Calliope!
Wishing you a great reading week
Thank you, it took over 2 months for them to figure it out but it is good to finally be able to move forward with what i want to do next.
They are good kitties! 🙂
