Derek\u2019s in Chattanooga, and I\u2019m in Houston. We\u2019re both alone, but Derek got the better end of the deal. He\u2019s got all our furniture (not to mention the bed) and the cats too, so he\u2019s surrounded by familiar things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I guess I could say that my cot, and my folding lawn chair are familiar too, but that\u2019s all I\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s hard having the minimum, and because Derek left in a bit of a hurry, we didn\u2019t exactly think about who would need what the most. Derek has complained about wanting the shower caddy, and an extra trash can, which I still have, and I have gone through the motions of trying to microwave something without having a microwave!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It hasn\u2019t been too bad though. We\u2019re already down to 29 days left at most. Less than one month left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve settled into a routine, which isn\u2019t too different than the routine we had when we were together. I get home from work, cook dinner, and then watch an episode of something through a streaming service. I have gotten into The Last Czars on Netflix, a miniseries about the Romanov family. Then I usually read, and chat with Derek through FaceTime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before I know it, it is time for bed. Once I\u2019m settled, I watch YouTube videos. I have settled on watching the YouTube channel Super Carlin Brothers, which features videos on Harry Potter, Disney, etc. Each night I have watched them go head to head on various Harry Potter quizzes. Last night\u2019s video was a Christmas themed quiz. There are so many quizzes that I\u2019ve been watching them for a week straight, and there are enough to go on for another week at least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sleeping on the cot isn\u2019t uncomfortable, but I would prefer my own bed. I alternate between sleeping well and not sleeping well. I have been having anxiety dreams about job prospects. I hope that something will work out in real life sooner than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
