'I grab some vegetables, a salad mix, apples, berries, black beans, sour cream, half-and-half and brie, which comes out to $40.21. It's still the beginning of the month and I've already spent over $100 on groceries, which is stressing me out.'

9:30 a.m. — I head over early to my parents' house. My dad is helping me with my taxes. I got a 1099-NEC for a part-time job that lasted all of one month and while I've figured out that I need to put it on a Schedule C to put it on a Schedule 1 to put it on my 1040 , I have no idea how to fill out a Schedule C.

Followed by some more writing, some more reading and bed.7:30 a.m. — It's one of those mornings where I have zero motivation to get out of bed so instead I just lie there for an hour, telling myself I should get up but not actually doing it.

6 p.m. — I call my grandma and we chat about her upcoming trip to a casino. Then I put together a grocery list for tomorrow, which my grocery app predicts will cost $47.98.
