OK, so I'm working my way out of the 'I could us some help bit', but...I'm still kinda meh.

My friend's gift of cat food got here today, though, which was a nice bonus, especially since it wasn't originally supposed to be here until Tuesday...and I'd've been out of the canned cat food another localite bought me. I now have two cans left (Which means a treat meal for both cats) for later.

I'm not sure when my other stuff (Yea speakers( is supposed to get here, because it hasn't shipped yet, but it'll be kinda nice to not be under over ear headphones 24-7. Even if it wasn't technically 'essential.'

I'm jealous of my room mates: they get to go for groceries, so they at least get to get out. I haven't left the house in almost three weeks, except for short walks to the mailbox a few times, and the same four walls seem small. It's making me pace because I've got to move. In between cleaning everything out of everywhere and reorganizing things, which in your own small space doesn't take long. I technically could've done it in one day, but I didn't want to, because I wanted to give myself something else to do.

Hugs from a Mitten

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

Stay strong. When I worked in a call center, I had a plushie/beanie baby to stroke because it could get stressful from all sides. Perhaps a fuzzy scarf if it's too warm for a coat, something to imply a hug?

Saw one of the cats in another post.

Someone else suggested putting your hands on opposite shoulders and sort of hugging yourself. I think the addition of a scarf and/or soft thing would be good.

I've taken to sleeping with a teddy bear again. I stopped )I don't know why, but I did) and it seems to be helping too. I have many stuffed things, and they help. A lot.

That's my ESA, he's a big boy, and I love him to bits. The other one is a little fisty panther-like thing, and that's my little lady. :)
