See, Deneb - listen to you!!!! Read what you've said below!
You're going to be just fine!!! I think that you need positive support & you certainly can get that here!
You have done a lot of positive things for yourself & look how you accept ideas & find ways that they might work for you!
Just be gentle with yourself & don't compare yourself with others. There will ALWAYS be others who are doing "better" than any of us! (Or at least on the surface...we don't know what their bank account looks like, or how they feel when they wake up in the morning....everything can LOOK great, but might not be!)
Anyway, YAY for you!!!!!!!
much love, Kath
PS - I think it might be very difficult to live alone on $800/mo. Maybe if you shared a place, but maybe get some good skills under your belt first & some money in the bank. I always say that it's good to have at LEAST a month's rent in the bank with some extra just in case, if you can.
