one of my many 'on this day's lands today. Last year I did a thing that I call 'the big shop'. I've done a few 'big shops' since then. It's a sign of having gotten a bit more work since working at the sentinel to be able to spend money on myself instead of just eking out a living and barely having enough to travel and eat.

Of course, I'm not the only person in the country and the world thinking about money. Nor is my situation 'that' dire. But it isn't great either.
