When Andrew installed it this morning, he put it exactly where I thought it would go. In the same exact spot that I had put it when I held up myself when trying out the adapters I bought, that didn’t work.

You want to hear something frustrating. I constantly talk about listening to my intuition. Well, come to think about it, I also constantly talk about how often I don’t. This is one of those stories 😅

Seconds before confirming the purchase for the adapters on Amazon, the thought crossed my mind that since I was going to embrace Navman anyway, there was no point in buying them. But I did anyway 🤦‍♀️

And in doing so, all I did was cause myself more stress and anguish. When all I had to do was listen to myself. But I didn’t. Thankfully, I seem to be listening better now 😌

Anyway, this morning, Andrew helped me by setting the camera up. Before he actually stuck it on the window, he asked me if I was sure, and happy with the position because once it was on, it was on. I was sure. I’m fairly positive that it is also the same spot as my mechanics worker (who did the actual installation of the smart box) planned to put it. Especially since there was only a short part of the original cable available to plug into the camera.

So, when Andrew asked me if I was sure this morning, I was. It wasn’t until I started driving to therapy that I immediately noticed the issue with the current position. I even tried to convince myself through telling my therapist that it is in the best position due to it not being a distraction when I’m driving or the light from the screen annoying me when driving in the dark. Those things are true, but what I completely forgot is that I bought the particular camera that I did because of all of the special features it has. Most of them I need to be able to see. Just like a GPS.

I am pretty sure the only adhesive that came with the camera was the one connected to it, so I have no idea if it can even be moved. I will ask Juice to have a look at it tomorrow morning when he comes to help me set up the roof storage on my car. I’m actually getting excited now about leaving. I am finally feeling good. Still sensitive as ever, but I am starting to think or accept, that’s just me. I am sensitive. I know this. And I’m ok with this ☺️

I watched the movie The Bad Seed (2018), which I came upon after going down the rabbit hole of the cast of Young Sheldon. I watched it in bed last. I’m actually in bed now typing this. Once I got my psychology session this afternoon, I put my ducted heating on since my house has been cold lately. I messaged my mum to let her know my decision about university. She is very happy with my decision. I kind of suspected   she would be. I read Reddit for a bit before cutting up and cooking the last two plant based sausages and reheating the leftover rice and peas from yesterday. As well as making some extra gravy. It was delicious 😋

My screen mirroring kept disconnecting, so I decided to come to bed instead. I turned the main heat off and put my bedroom heater on and got into bed. Mom is playing on my laptop right now. Well, it’s buffering every once in a while. I plan to watch the movies sequel tonight. The Bad Seed Returns (2022). I might wait a bit since Mom keeps buffering. Might be because it’s peak internet time.

I’m going to go put the last apple pie in the air fryer for dessert. I bought the low-fat version of the ice cream that I have been buying lately, and it is not nearly as good. I can taste the artificial sweetener. I have learnt my lesson. Much better to buy the full fat ice cream I enjoy and moderate my intake than buy low fat. I need to do that for everything truthfully. I have had no self-control lately when it comes to eating junk food 🫣

I still want dessert, though 😆
