All the things I have paid for today

• Money towards a friend's emergency vet bill (looks like their dog is going to be okay, which is the biggest thing, but a Sunday-rates vet bill is also a pretty big thing!)

• money for friends who need groceries

• tickets to see Bruce Springsteen in Sunderland in May because diffrentcolours is amazing and planned this as a lovely surprise for me months ago

• tickets to virtual performances of the M.R. James stories "The Ash Tree" (on "Mothersile Sunday," haha) and "Lost Hearts" (on "Abney Day," I definitely remember us marking the occasion the same way last year!)

• money toward an air purifier filter for someone who badly needs it replacing

I am so goddam grateful for being able to put money toward every single one of these things.
