This year was not quite what I expected it to be. It was supposed to be there year of 2020 vision, which thanks to Lasik surgery, I got. I ended up having to have my right eye redone, but all in all, I see very well now without glasses. And oh, how my sunglasses collection has grown.
I'm not going to go through all the ways in which the Covid-19 pandemic has screwed me over because honestly, I haven't been that much affected by it. In fact, I have been able to make more money this year than ever simply because of what I do, delivery for a restaurant downtown and driving for Uber/Lyft. I will say that while the city was in quarantine, I delivered a great amount of food and I am grateful everyday that I did not have to go on unemployment. I have a few friends that did and my heart goes out to them greatly.
Let's see...what else has happened so far this year. Not a whole lot, really. I've been taking the time to get my debt paid down. I've been working on my credit score and I'm trying to get things together to try to buy a house. It isn't easy when one's primary income is based on self-employment and tips. I might have to wait until next year. *sigh* maybe it will never happen. I'm also planning on moving to Texas after Raven graduates high school to be closer to my mom. Who knows what will change in that time.
Other than that, nothing much has changed. I did stop the tap lessons about two months after I started. My ankles just couldn't handle the pressure. I bought a harmonica at the beginning of this year, but I haven't played much. I've actually become something of a workaholic this year. I'm just trying to hard to get the debt monkey off my back. One day I'll be able to calm down a bit, and perhaps one day not drive for the other guys so much, but today is not that day.
