Mixed blessings of the day

I wish I knew a better title than that one, but alas, after such a long day, I do not.

I went to bed at 6am, after some difficulty which I don't to discuss because not many people will understand, I woke up at 1:30, and decided to move around. It was the start of a long day. By the time 3pm rolled around, I was going to make myself something to eat, mom informed me that we needed to go out to Owasso which is 30-45 minutes away because the two Cracker Barrels near us didn't have his Moxie soda. We told him not to guzzle it down because we didn't know if we could get anymore, but he called around and found some.

We left at 3:30, and didn't get back to 5:15. We had to stop at Walmart, QuikTrip, and Sclotsky"s before we were able to make it home.

At that time, I was going to record, but I hadn't had a bath. I couldn't take a relaxing bath because my dad bangs on the door and asks, if when I get out, I can out the dogs out on the lead, and not 15 minutes after he asks me, he yells at me through the bathroom door because the dog pushed open his door and got into his room. So there went that.

I got everything recorded, but found out the audio on my end was too low, but everyone said the video was good, and I was proud of what I'd made. I still am, as a matter of fact ^__^

A friend of mine, who colored and cut my hair for YouTube, called me to come over (she lives across the street), to watch her kids because she had to run and help her brother. I was able to get the video and posted, the copyright claim cleaned up, and the video settled before she got back home. And then we were able to do a livestream of scary games, so the night was worth it.

I finally heard back from Dr Pepper, and it looks like they won't be sponsoring me. I'm disappointed, but there are plenty of potential sponsors out there, so I know I might get one soon. Unfortunately, it looks like I might be getting a job to get a new computer. I've tried just keeping with a gofundme, and doing livestreams for donations, but it doesn't seem to be working. I refuse to go back to Walmart though. Between my PMDD, IBS, stomach acid disorders, and my anxiety disorder, coupled with their WAY less than generous call in, sick, and health policies, I wouldn't last a week.

It's now time to weigh my options and see what happens.

But, I was able to talk to Mel today ^__^

She was the Mod in my livestream and it made me happy to have her there. She always brings that added light and airy element into the stream that makes it easier for me to relax and be myself. I know she's going through tough times herself, but I know she's a fighter. I'm proud of her everyday for not giving up. She's become my inspiration, and my reason for continuing. I love her, and I'm honored to be with her.

This is the video I recorded. I apologize for the audio. I did try, but I am proud of the result.
