You OWN what you were. Yes. I did horrible things. I was a bad person. I accept that. My addiction was the reason I did those things. Maybe you had a craving. Something that seemed as important as breathing till you quit. Maybe your guilt is entirely misplaced. If you were the victim of abuse, guilt is not earned. It is forced onto you. You can't change the past but at this point in your life (you are 28) your parents are still pretty young, your grandparents are getting older and if you have kids they need you very much. Spend time with your family. If you have no family left, learn to accept yourself for who you were and who you are. Maybe work can be your focus. Maybe a hobby. Maybe love. And if you need to cut toxic people out of your life do it. But what mostly affects your mood is your health. Get rest. Eat well. Love the people you care about. And brush your teeth.

The fact that you acknowledge your bad choices and feel badly about them shows you are an emotionally healthy human being. That you have a conscience. So take those cringe moments as a positive. The best thing you can do for yourself and for others is to move forward with your life, keep building on the good things your embracing. And try to remember that so many of us have done things we aren’t proud of. “To err is human, to forgive divine” - Alexander Pope

There are 2 months during the year that have 3 pay perioda if you get paid bi weekly. I think it's October and May . One is on the first, one in the middle, and the third on the last day . I budget for two pay checks per month ( between the first and last day of each month) so the months with three checks between the first and last day seems like a bonus

It sounds like you and your wife are looking to make the most of the situation by reducing the amount of trips to the laundromat. It might be helpful to invest in some items that can help make washing clothes by hand easier and more efficient. For example, a collapsible laundry bag or a portable drying rack can make the chore of washing clothes by hand much simpler. Additionally, you can also look into buying a portable washing machine or a washing machine that hooks up to your sink. This could help you save time and energy when it comes to doing the laundry.
