I received several orders from amazon today. Itās weird, but they didnt even bother to put two different items in a box or padded envelope or plastic shipping pouch. This is the first time that has happened.
Also, one item that was supposed to arrive today is now estimated to arrive Thursday. I have had multiple instances with delayed shipping on amazon orders recently and they are starting to use usps and ups more often instead of the amazon delivery trucks. Their estimated arrival date is often not accurate.
Have you had any of these issues on your amazon orders recently?

Hey @Qwerty hope your first coffee of the day is going well.
If itās not too personal could I ask what instrument you were playing in the young musician of the year competition?
I love that show and am starstruck to know you were on it!

Thatās really weird that they didnāt put your goods in any boxes or envelopes. I know sometimes say for example if you order a package of tee shirts theyāll ship them in the original packaging and just stick your address label on it. I believe itās to help out the environment but Iām not sure if itās just another āgreenwashingā tactic.
I havenāt had any problems with delivery dates lately but I have noticed my deliveries coming very later into the evening and night. I didnāt even get my package tonight until about 9:55pm. I suppose better late than never though. I think a lot of their delivery drivers are probably very tired a lot of the time and very over-worked.

I donāt think my schizoaffective disorder is that bad. I take two medications: Zyprexa and Trintellix. I could probably improve a little if I exercised and stopped the energy drinks and reduced the smoking a bit.
I could eat healthier too.
I have bipolar type. I feel mostly depressed about my condition. Iām aware of it.
I think Iāve improved over the years, but seem to still struggle with delusions. Iām trying not to engage or talk about them as much. It can be non productive and self-absorbing.
I hate sleeping so much. I seem like I waste the days or time anymore.
I donāt have a lot of grit, motivation, or tenacity. I probably never did.
I have cognitive impairments. I probably do better on less medication. I donāt like mood stabilizers at all. I thought lamictal was okay though, but I prefer less meds.
About 75 percent of schizophrenics donāt work. I fall into that category. 80-90% of schizophrenics smoke too.
Luckily, I have a supportive and loving and kind family. Itās what you make of it.
I used to blame others but itās pointless. I guess Iām learning now lol.
I should probably clean my room instead of fixating on studying math on coursera.
Iāve got to the point of thinking about not using a computer anymore. It distracts me a lot.

Am reading this book on healing from trauma and attempting the exercises. Iām find the inner child work particularly liberating and enlightening. i think that if i do all the exercises and put in the work, I could have a chance at healing. there are a lot of tips in this book.

learning maths on Coursera sounds like a worthy thing to do too, remember to take little steps and talk kindly to yourself when making change.

LOL! For tonightās midnight movie I watched Death Wish Part 3. Oh Lord, it was great. I lost count on the amount of explosions in the movie. Itās the type of movie that just drips machismo. They definitely donāt make them like that anymore!
