So I woke up at 4 AM because I knew today was the day!

Mind you, Social Security will take half of everything I make over $58 a month so I can keep $227.54. Social Security won’t take my Ko-fi money because Paypal doesn’t report to the IRS unless you make over $20,000. Stripe reports, but that’s OK. I am so grateful!

Also, the state of Florida just notified me that my food stamps were dropped to $20 a month. Thank God for Medium!

I am not stopping now. We are on this ride together, so onward and upward. I want to know for all of us. WE ARE FUCKING WRITERS…OMG…YAY MUCH? Sorry. My finger typed the -F- word all on their own.

I am flippin’ disabled and I am making money. Last month I went crazy and bought $200 worth of groceries.

I am learning to walk again. Some day I plan on running again. But for now, we are on this quest, so I say, let’s kick some Medium butt!

So here’s the drill…
