@tyme that's something I'm really struggling with doing at the moment. I did manage to almost fully clean one room today but even that wasn't without challenges. [edited by moderator] I do everything I can with trying to do my distractions to keep safe, I just really feel like i want to disappear from the world. I'm safe and I'm about to start my bedtime routine but it's just those feelings that weigh so heavily.

Sorry to hear @MissGremlin. Sorry if I had missed the mark today also re how you were tracking or what you needed 🙏. Glad you are doing your bedtime routine and hope you and Casper are okay 💜

Thank you @MissGremlin It was a big relief because I was super anxious about it for weeks leading up to it.

I understand how much of a toll house inspections take. I want to acknowledge that before I add, the best thing about them is that they're over and done with quickly on the day and the positive is that you don't have to clean for a while because the house is spotless.

@NightFury i can definitely understand how you'd be anxious about it. I'm really glad you have that stability now and I'm so proud of you.

My house never stays clean for long unfortunately. Even on the day the person that now comes out to do the inspections, she takes a million pictures so it takes forever. The actual owner of the real estate place used to do them and she would come here, ask if there was any maintenance that needed to be done, look in every room and then leave.

@Chasingsunsets no it's ok sweet, you didn't miss the mark. I just needed to get it out, didn't tag anyone as I know it can be triggering.

Anyway I'm sitting in bed with Casper now.

That's generally what happens during my inspections @MissGremlin the real estate agent comes in, takes a few pictures, walks around the house and then leaves. It's about 5 - 10 minutes of time.

Have you found out anything about your lease?

All good @MissGremlin, here like @NightFury if ya need to chat 🙏. Hope bed is comfy! My favourite spot 😊

@NightFury mine take about 20 minutes now with this person that does them. I just find them really stressful.

They ended up doing a new lease with a $45pw increase instead of the $70pw that they originally wanted. I had no choice but to sign it even though I'm not going to be able to afford it for long.

@Chasingsunsets thankyou sweet. My bed is comfy. Just trying to decide what to do, not sure if I want to do diamond art or make some lucky stars.

Hi @Chasingsunsets hope you're travelling along okay?

@MissGremlin that must have been a little bit of a relief. It buys you some time and you still have a roof over your head for now
