It sucks, but... Am I prepping right?
Long story short, my ex broke up with me last fall and has moved to his own place, leaving me to the duplex unit we rented (he says he'll still help/pay rent, I believe him). The lease is up at the end of July, and I've been preparing to the best I can. I have almost almost everything that I won't need packed up in three large plastic totes/bins (40 gallon size). I've got my clean clothes in two bags (one is a mesh bag dedicated to hoodies... I'm a hoodie girl, lol), plus a cloth laundry bag to keep the dirties in. I've got one other bag dedicated to toiletries and needles for my diabetes medicine (I use insulin that comes in what looks like a marker, the needles are itty bitty). My stuff will go into a storage unit, I plan on getting a Planet Fitness membership primarily for showers (unless there's a better option), and a PO box closer to moving out. I'd work full time, but honestly, working 40-60 hour weeks just to be exhausted and even more broke at the end of the month isn't a life goal. One of my insulins is $800 every three weeks, and I can't afford to pay the deductible until health insurance starts paying that in full (I'm on government healthcare right now). So, yeah, burning myself out just to be exhausted on my time off and just as broke at the end of the month seems worse for my anxiety and depression. I lived that life once for years, it is exhausting. I have a car and a part-time job, so I'm not completely destitute. I am curious to know if I'm prepping right, what else I might not be thinking about, and if anyone can recommend an easy DIY for curtains in my lil 2-door car. But, dang, I feel like if my medications didn't cost more than local rent (every 3 weeks!), I'd be far better off.
