Life update that I've been keeping on the down low:
My social interactions/conversations are purely centered around one coworker and she really got me thinking about some very serious life choices. Ones that would impact not just me but my pug and also my finances.
I fork over $1400 per month for rent. This cabin life already feels like I'm homeless and there's only four walls protecting me from the elements and the only thing I use for heat is a small table heater because I broke the firebox and oddly it's kept me pretty warm without a single complaint. I was without electricity for a week and had to survive on my landlords generator because of the storm that knocked out two trees and our towers.
I make close to 3 grand per month and for some reason I can barely even save $500. Which is why I made this final decision;
Buying an econoline work van- you know, those white ones and convert it into a camper to live out of because I did my math and minus the $500 necessity spending, this is how much I'll be saving per year :

Finding a place to park my car and sleep is going to be a fucking hassle at night but I already have my solution for the day time. Might even create a youtube channel so y'all can witness my build out with me. it's gonna be hella dope.
I've got 10 months to get this shit done. FYI; that's when my cabin lease is up. It's gonna be a very slow process because I work every day and my disability is a constant annoying and dibilitating factor in what Im physically able to do but I'm staying positive c:
#I'm really excited about this tbfh#also this plan has been in the works for three months and I still#Can not find a work van under my budget#All the campers are out in Bremerton or spokane valley#like tf get closer god damn it#I already have my layout pretty much figured out as far as what furniture and stuff I'm gonna build in it#Just need the van so I know the exact dimensions to build#I love the fact that my skill set is thus#just show me a video and I can build anything myself#I use that same logic with my cooking but I've been spoiled by working with top notch chefs so lol#Carpentry work will be no different here#Plus#I worked with a contractor before so I know all there is to know honestly#In other news it's been half a year and I got one more month of light duty#My spinal arthritis has gotten worse over the holidays bc#It only takes two weeks of no doctor for all the pain to fucking floor me#im stage 3 any worse and I'll be considered terminal#But this month I feel actual improvement because I saw my doctor every day for two weeks#I feel stronger as far as my spine is concerned#so I can ditch light duty that's killing me honestly#last night I identified a thief in the store and warned HR#prevented that but the dumb ass walked in again and stole what he originally wanted#I even told my coworkers before he bolted with food#But they wouldn't listen to me#This place has always used me as a discount security guard and I'm fucking tired of it#I can't wait to go back to stocking shelves
