Hello everyone, this is Refried. It is Monday, May 11. I went to a meeting and then watched a youtube video of Princeton's Chapel Service. It was good. My therapist helped me with how I did not feel good.  I think I am okay now.  Soon I will go to the post office but I am waiting until the computer says my order has arrived.  It was a large order and I am taking my cart. I hope even the cart is enough room. It is 40 books total.  I think the cart will be fine.

So okay, there is some bad news, which is that my mom does not want to support the facebook video outreach.  So possibly that hobby is mostly over or at least postponed.  But she was not mad that I asked. She just doesn't like it for some reason. I mean that is weird to me. How can you not like that.

So anyway that means I will be kind of tight with my budget for a while and might not get to go to Asheville in October. Well that is okay. What I am worried about is that my mom is not going to double up on deposits and instead is going to grant my sister access to do the checks.  I could see this as a good thing I guess, like maybe it means my mom is about to cut me off for being gay.  So this is when and how we arrange for my sister to help me survive instead.  But practically speaking, I am a little bit worried about being able to pay the rent on time in June. But I think it will be okay.

About this thermostat quote, I think it can be cheapened to be about power, and maybe you aren't supposed to go after the power and even influence, but the service. That is how I felt before when I said it and I am going to have to agree with myself again.

Well have a great day everyone.
