Now I'm feeling so tired eugh.




Today I tackled the hall closet.




It's so embarassing to show it how it was lol






But now it's better and that's one less thing that's horribly cluttered.







While I was doing that, the repairmen came and replaced our sink faucet. They managed to do so without touching the broken drain stop or the clog, which is honestly kind of impressive. They also refused to acknowledge the mold, even when I pointed right at it. One of the guys even smeared it with his finger, showing how it wiped off the surface like a powder, and said "see, it's just decomposing wood!". I didn't push it, but I find it annoying. 

Now we have dehumidifiers running in there to dry to dry out the floor of the cabinet, but since our bathroom is so tiny it basically takes up the whole room so using the toilet or shower is basically impossible. So annoying.








recent meals

Recently we've been flat broke so I'm cooking at home a lot with what we have.

This is fine, I just generally dislike cooking and I get bored of food very quickly and crave variety...




On Monday night we had pre-made mushroom ravioli. I basically made them into 'alfredo' with butter, olive oil, pasta water, and parmesean mixed in the pan. I prepared mushrooms and spinach sautéed in garlic butter and topped it with crushed red pepper flakes. 

It was so good I made it again in the morning on Tuesday with regular pasta LOL


This time it was not as good as with the ravioli.







Yesterday's lunch:



Garlic butter sautéed green beans, protein instant roasted garlic mashed potatoes (with butter and sour cream), and Dino nuggets LOL with reserved McDonald's sauce packets. 

It was my first time trying the creamy chili sauce and it was really good!



Actually this was generally very good, and the instant mashed potato packs make a TON of servings for the $1.50 or whatever they cost. Kept me full for a long time too. Really happy with this.






Sorry not so aesthetic pic, but dinner last night was pre-made beef and beans chili with cornbread.

(How do you prefer to have chili? I eat it with tortilla chips.)



Cornbread mix is another item that is shelf stable, costs very little (i think it is $1.19) and makes a ton of food. And its soo yummy. 



Finally, breakfast this morning: 




Miso soup with bone broth, mushrooms, spinach, and tofu.

The tofu was one day expired so I had to get rid of it... that's why theres so much lol 







Main reason I'm making this post is because I have a compulsion to photograph every meal even though I never show it, because
Actually I'm embarrassed by the food I cook tbh. Especially the lack of side dishes im really embarassed about. 

Plus, this isn't every meal obv the sardines and rice with miso soup and spicy tuna mayo rice balls I usually make for lunch is kind of boring to see... lol

eugghhhh


I've been feeling so anxious lately like, 


nothing is to my taste anymore and I'm out of the mood for everything I own and I feel SO STRESSED OUT by all the clutter everywhere. like CLUTTER EVERYWHERE. 


Even though I think it's really not like that?


I'm looking around for clutter to fix but I can't find much because really it's not so cluttered in here.




...The closets are a different story though...




But to make myself feel a little better I thought I'll reorganize under the bathroom sink since it's a nightmare again. 




But when I pulled everything out I found out that the sink has been leaking so a lot of stuff was ruined and there's mold growing on the floor of the cabinet FUCK THAT


I HATE mold. 




So now I'm just feeling worse honestly...
