My world (a Sunday seven)
- The picture sums up my life these days. I had my PRP injection(platelet rich plasma) 2 weeks ago, and im still wearing this boot. It hurts less, but I won't know how well it worked for 8 weeks. I was told to take it easy, but I don't know how to do that, so im doing everything I normally do just with the boot on and a shoe on the other foot. Why? Because if I don't do it, nobody else will. It just is what it is these days, and im kinda over it. But Henry and his tractors? They're pretty coo.
- I've really loved this time off, but I can't wait till the clock starts on starting up the mill again. Even from the word to start the clock, its still 46 days till we fire off. Our COO and management want us to start and keep running, so they will pull the trigger when its good for the business. I just need to get back in the routine and to put my nose down and work. It will take my mind off of the world.
- I bought another guitar, but im regretting my decision. The guitar is great, I've always wanted one, but its not like the rest of my instruments aren't gathering dust as it is these days. It just seems like I have all these commitments to everything else, stupid and good things like health issues, getting a second job, trying to be a good parent and s.o. that it just gets pushed by the wayside. I told H the other day I wish I had a quiet hobby, but all I hear from her and everybody else is, "oh it will get better, it will get better". 3 years, and still not better. I think I mourn this loss the hardest...
- I'm battling to keep insurance because my COBRA payment has been $830 per month, just for me. Henry is covered under H's policy for now, but I simply cannot afford to either pay my premium on a shite policy(which won't cover a procedure that will save them money in the long run) or drop my coverage because my meds are so expensive. I mean, my problems are miniscule and I shouldn't complain, but im kinda reaching the end of my rope.
- So far so good on being a notary, but the Surface that I bought to use for digital signings already gave up the ghost. Microsoft already has it back, and are sending me a new one(Way to be Microsoft!!!). I had my first loan refinance signing the other day, and it was cool. Weird, but cool, because I go to them. We all practice social distancing, mask up, disinfect the hell out of everything... its just a trip to do this stuff during the time of covid. That being said, if I can do a couple of these per week, its an extra 1k in my pocket after taxes per month, which will be helpful once I finish all my training and get certified. Gotta respect the hussle, right?
- I cant even wrap my head around having 2 hurricanes in the gulf at once. Im sure lord Dampnut will say something like, "who would have thought something like this could happen?", meaning covid and a hurricane. Because, of course he will. Of fucking course. I hope with every ounce of my soul that neither of these storms are incredibly destructive. Not just for those in their path, but I truly believe that the social darwinists in the senate have zero intention of really doing good for the American people or helping people at this point. Its all about their agenda of promoting big business and the wealthy few. Its good for them if poor people suffer; its good for them to twist the only pillar that these folks cling to, religion, into a whip that stings them into voting against their best interests; And its certainly good for them to keep to keep the fear of minorities, persons of colour, and anybody else who can be termed an enemy of the state stoked like a poison stew as fear drives votes like no other. So as a great leader once said, "pray for the dead, and fight like hell for the living".
- Good grief! If you've made it this far, you are seriously brave and must have good boots. All I've done is complain when I should be happy I have the things I do have. My family is healthy, I have a few dollars in the bank, my job will be starting again soon and I have a profitable sideline starting. And I want you all to know that I read your posts, sometimes over heart stuff, and hear your voices, and I just want to thank all of you for being here and sharing you. It really does help me get over me. Much love!
