I just underwent major surgery on June 28th and sadly, experienced a sudden death in my immediate family literally the next morning. As a result, July is going to be a short month for me financially.

My recovery will likely take a month and it's only been a week so far. A brutal, exhausting, excruciatingly painful one at that. Nevertheless, I'm staying on track. I'm hoping I'll at least be able to work a week or two this month, but we'll see. Also, I had to invest in automatic feeders for all my cats since walking around was nearly impossible. A HUGE HELP, but it set me back the $250 bucks that wouldve gone to savings this week. Oh well. It is what it is.

Currently now: $2032/$6000

((hugs))) Im so sorry
sending you good vibes and a speedy recovery

Thank you to those who wished me well through my recovery and loss of my grandmother, I really appreciated that. I'm doing okay, but every day is different. I had to dip into my savings as one of my cats needed a few things (Unfortunately, she's had issues with spraying/peeing outside the litter so medical bills and many Amazon purchases later, I'm down from what I had)

My recovery is finally showing progress enough that I may test working tonight or tomorrow. I'll have to work my ASS OFF for the next two months to make up for what I've missed, but it's only temporary, I keep telling myself. I just hope my body allows me to do it.

One step back, but two steps will go forward :)

$1,582.14/$6,000
