Feeling a little out of sorts/distracted today. I tried working on icons for ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
your_favorites today, but after finishing one I realized I wrote the quote wrong on it and just couldn't get anything else for another one to work. Part of my problem is the images are dark. Why are period dramas always filmed in a dark room?? ::sigh::
I did finally take my portion of our tax return. I paid the agreed amount to the credit card and then added some of my half to it and donated all but the last $50 of it to charity. That's something I've been wanting to do for a while, but we hadn't had any extra money so I couldn't do it. Usually we split our extra money (like $100 each) every month, but with holidays and such, we didn't have any. But we got quite a bit back from taxes, so we ended up with a much larger sum to split. I initially didn't want it because I would never spend that much money, but then I remembered that I'd been wanting to donate money. So I took my half and split it six ways (after putting half of it toward the credit card) to leave myself something and give some to different charities.
I gave to RAINN, GLAAD, Planned Parenthood, the American Humane Society, and to a person that I follow on Tumblr that has fallen on some serious hard times. In the future I'll give to one charity each month and just rotate between those four. When I have the money to do so. I might not be able to find anything for myself with that money, but those people certainly need it.
