So, I didn’t get murdered on my walk today…

Bummer

Vince, thanks for my dose of reality. I needed someone to just hit me over the head with some truth. You’re right. Never has a person been more right!! This is why you’re my best friend.

And thanks for making me laugh when I told you how weird it is for strange men to ask me if they can help me. “You mean you’re finally getting a normal level of attention you deserve from men and don’t know what to do with it? 😂”

Its a very low day for me. I miss my little girls so very much. I thought getting almost 12 hours of sleep would help. But yeah, not so much.

I went to bed at 7:30 or 8. Got woken up by Joey and Jason messaging me and the same time asking if I’m all right. I think I fell back to sleep around midnight and was up at 6:30. I could sleep another 12 hours…

When I got home last night, I was so exhausted. I was on the verge of tears and just wanted a hug, to snuggle, and someone to stroke my hair.

So I need to find some happy things to do today or something to distract me. I close tonight so that’s not improving my mood.

So I had a fun little experience today…

I took Connor back to Tennessee last night. On my way back to Missouri, I only cried for the first hour. So that’s good.

I was on my way to the Paducah Kentucky Starbucks when I got a flat tire.

Called a tow truck, and had my tire fixed within an hour and a half, probably sooner. And yes, I can change the oil in my car but not the tire. It’s stupid, I know.

I made a joke about it on Facebook and had 2 guys message me to see if they could help and one guy sent me a pic of his certified tire repairman certificate. Wtf?! Am I living in some sort of alternate reality?

I blocked a guy too…you know nothing!!!

And this bird just flew in my car and landed on me!

I’ve got my countdowns started on my phone…

102 days until I’m back in Portland for my birthday.

I want to go to the lighthouse at Cape Disappointment, Deception Pass, and that waterfall.

106 days until my birthday. Yeah, no one ever celebrates my birthday, but I like to countdown to it.

448 days until my deadline for moving. I fully plan on getting there sooner, that’s just the absolute last day possible. My plan is to be there in the beginning of the year…we’ll see.

Apparently it’s my 3 year anniversary at work…

And I’m sorry, Cassandra, no matter how many times you make fun of me, I’m not changing my key chain. Pikachu is cute and Meowth reminds me of my son. 😝

I forgot how much I like working with Cassandra. Her and I have been singing Grease songs all day. I haven’t watched that movie in about 10 years, but I somehow remember most of the lyrics to the songs. I guess my mom making me sing them to people growing up had some impact.

I wore my converse to work and a jean skirt. My apron goes below my hemline so it looks like I’m wearing an apron dress! Lmao. I spilled coffee on my shoes. 😩😩

And how did I get Mango Dragonfruit crap on my legs?
