I've freed myself from my phone for one. It really irritates me to see someone on her phone all the time, as if my presence were irrelevant. I now know how foolish that looks.
The friends I had on Facebook were an illusion. In reality, I had no friends. This was a first step back toward reality.
Somewhere between March, when we were all locked down, and now, I refocused on my bills. The thousands I owed are nearly gone. The car is paid ahead and balance is down nearly 1000. By the end of August, the car will be the only debt.
Then, I can focus on saving. I'll need about $5000 in reserves for the next step. Then I can move, to be alone again. It will be nice to think my 8-900 per month will go towards owning rather than padding a landlord's pockets.
There. That's the plan.
And I don't have to sell anything else to accomplish it, as I had to in the past
