    I wish I was dead but thanks for asking. I have a busted tooth I can’t afford to fix, we had to get a replacement vehicle and it costs too much, which gave the insurance company and excuse to double the insurance rate even though it’s a newer, better car. We can’t afford that either. I’m going to have to file for bankruptcy just to get by.

      Good and meh. Personal life is great. I’m able to engage in all the hobbies I want to and am particularly chuffed about learning to play piano. Got a new motorcycle last month that I actually enjoy riding.

      Marriage is pretty good. Got a bunch of child support earlier this year, which helped pay off most of my son’s medical debt.

      Work is…meh. I love my job but I’m over it when it comes to working in general.

      Health-wise… it’s okay considering how bad it can get. I don’t sleep well due to my heart pounding half or the whole night (been an ongoing thing for over a decade and no one can tell me why) so I take a blood pressure supplement (the only thing that helps). Always tired. I’ve become more of an introvert, which is completely fine because I really love my alone time. Have a good group of friends that I stay in touch with and occasionally socialize with.

      Overall, I have no complaints. Unsure about the government situation but I can’t get stuck in worrying about that because that dumpster fire will just keep burning. Hoping for enough resistance to keep things from exploding…
