I'm not sure if I've shared before that I have Bipolar Disorder.  Well recently I discovered that my Disability application has been approved!  And praise Jesus that I didn't need to hire a lawyer to file an appeal!  What all this means is that I'll have more income at my disposal, nearly as much as I was making washing dishes full-time.  My mind has been going wild with ideas about all those things I couldn't afford because of being out of work for over 2 years now.  But I've learned my lessons about spending so I plan to be very very careful with what I'm going to be getting and resist the urge to go on a shopping spree and end up poor and depressed again.

But as long as I only get one or two things a month I should be okay and be able to save up for a modest car in a few months.  I've started fantasizing about going to another Renaissance meeting now that I'll have the resources soon to get the smooth, dainty, traditional look that I prefer.  After some makeup experiments I think I found a look I can be satisfied with.  I've come to terms with the fact that I'll never be as adorable as I wish I could be but I can still give some credit to the softer aspects of my personality.  Who knows?  Maybe if it goes well I'll be brave enough to take a picture of myself this summer?
