Friday in New Diary

Well it is a new day. I am glad to be above the dirt. I had a good day yesterday. I had a little bit of anxiety. I was kind of worried about how I’m going to get to Gumby’s. I called Healthways. They said they might be able to take me on the 1st They were supposed to call me back but they never did. I will give them another call today.

Other than that I am good. I wasn’t depressed or anxious. I think I am going a bit stir crazy though. I haven’t been out of the apartment since last Friday when Chocolatechip and I went to Wal Mart. It doesn’t look like I will be able to go anyplace until the 1st. I will be ok though. I have a lot of books t o read and I can concentrate on my books. If I don’t think of being “stuck” here it will not bother me.

I am almost finished with this one book I’m reading The Road to Disunion Vol One Seccessionists at Bay 1776-1854 by William H Freehling. I have been on this book for almost all month,. I have one more chapter to go then I am finished. Then I am going to start on Volume II of the Road to Disunion Seccessionists Triumphant

Speaking of books I was browsing yesterday. I came across a couple more books I would like to buy. I was strongly tempted but resisted the urge. I can’t afford it and I don’t dare put anymore charges on my card until I get the balance paid off,. I kept telling myself I really do not need anymore books this month. I bought six this month and five last month. I have enough books to read. I should read the ones I have before buying more It is too damned easy having a NOOK and a credit card.

I was talking to Kelly my worker the yesterday. She was saying that I am very impulsive. I agree with her on that. I am impulsive at least when it comes to buying books. I guess it is an addiction. What I have to do is remember the difference between wants and needs. It is like I want more books. I do not need more books. I need to have money for rent. I need to have money for meds. I need to have money for groceries. I do not need more books. But come the first when I get my credit card bill paid off I will probably buy a few more books. God help me I am impulsive.

Then again I really do not think I have too much of a problem. I always have money for bills such as rent and Comcast. I always have money for groceries and meds. I never over charge my credit card and always pay it off. It Is just that whatever money I have left over goes to books. So it isn’t like I’m blowing my whole check on books. If I did that then I would have a serious problem.

Well life is good. I am
