Adulted like a boss
Mar. 27th, 2025 08:04 amGot my last tax slip in, so I did my taxes last night. The program can pull the income stuff directly from the CRA, but it didn't pull the RRSP deductions, so after I added those manually I went from owing $171 to getting $52 back. Decided I'd adulted quite enough TY and ordered in dinner. The site had a big sign that you needed to file before April 2 to get the last gov't benefit payment of a program that was cut like the first day the new PM took office (he'd promised to do so, and he did it), so I'm really glad to have that still incoming and the taxes off my mind!
I was chatting with the former roomies for a bit too. J found that his vehicle had been broken into earlier in the week and he wasn't sure if he should clean up the glass etc before the police arrived to take his report? I've never had to do that so I had no idea (in retrospect, I doubt there was much they could glean from the glass itself, that sort of thing happens all the time). Either way, it was the driver's window and he would not be able to get it fixed before today! He has a dentist appointment this afternoon so I said of course he could borrow my vehicle. OF COURSE the weather is awful today, but we'll make it work. (ETA: He decided it was not a good idea to drive a new vehicle for the first time in a snowstorm, so he rescheduled his appointment. Good call!)
Definitely feeling better over the past few days (amazing!! what a solid 5+ hours of sleep! can do!) but still not really translating into "yes I shall spend this evening in my happy place (sewing/knitting)". Once again I find myself kind of overwhelmed with choices all at a similar level of effort so I end up choosing none of them and do nothing. It's ok, self, we're kind of under attack at the moment. Deep breaths, we'll get through it. I do need to start doing something OTHER than doomscrolling/phone games bc my hands are just suffering so much from the weight of my phone and the fixed position my hands end up in. It's not good.
I bought these pants back at the end of summer and not only is the butt seam showing signs of damage (all the little elastic ends sticking out - you know the ones) but one of the hems came out completely yesterday. SIGH. It's just annoying.
