I saw Beau again

 He was with his sister.  He did not introduce me but put his arm around me.

Now, to be crude, if I weren't saved I might consider a quick fling but there are a million reasons it wouldn't work.

He watched me work for a while and left without saying goodbye but 2 of my bosses were present.

Work is going OK just tired.  I am carrying dead weight with another worker who is more interested in taking very long breaks and texting all night 

I have decided I will text the one boss and tell her I will do A, B, and C leaving D for the other girl and they can make their own evaluation tomorrow.  

I got in trouble last time I worked with her as, yet again, she did NOTHING and it showed.

Other than that I feel good, looking to tomorrow off but not telling anyone that.  

Friday before work

 I have been thinking some about my hair and decided I am not going to change it.  I have to pull it back to ride the bus, to work, and prefer it back at home so I might as well leave it as is.

I brought in the cell phone case for my friend I hope she likes it.  She was working so I just put it on her cart.

That manager just came in, the one who brings her grandson to work, leaves him in the break room, and expects the associates to baby sit him when they are supposed to be relaxing.  That's going to end pretty soon I would imagine, I know our AP (loss prevention) guy saw him the other day.  

Tomorrow I would like to relax but I also need to do meal prep and housework.  The cats are using the box more which is great I don't want them outside.

At some point I need to buy more candy as well.  Oh, and laundry.  That is stacking up.  

I may wish I was at work, tomorrow!  

Friday morning

 I will post some pictures but I finished my cell phone holder.  I made it for a coworker - she doesn't know but had admired my ratty old one, and another day admired the "bright stripes" yarn I bought so I thought it would be fun to combine the two.  

I think, for me, I'm going to do more of a neutral.  I got a nice variations of gray ball of yarn which I will use to make mine, next.  

It is fun to have a small project then I don't get sick of it.  

Today I will have the boss until 8 PM.  She said last night "they have me coming in at 11".  I don't think it will be awful she has been very busy with a project and not much time to micromanage.  

Two concerns about my trip to work: the dogs, and crazy people at the bus stop or on the bus.  

I did my shower, got dressed, did up the candy.  I like that I am writing a little personal note to each recipient letting them know I'll be praying.  One of my sponsors is sending me some pretty index cards for that.  

One of my bus drivers yesterday said they talk about me which I find funny.  I have told them (collectively) a little bit about my personal life so I guess they have something to talk about.  

Let's see if I can do the photos: 

The blue floral bag is the one I use for the candy.  I have a knitting project, water bottle, and some headache pills in there as well.  

My left calf is bugging me a little so I am wearing compression socks today.  Hopefully that helps, I'm hoping all the walking will work out the kinks.  

I heard a lot of frenzied barking a little while ago but that could have been a cat, or possum, walking on the fence, or one of my neighbors walking a little yapper past a big dog's house with a fenced yard.  There is a very aggressive little yappy dog that goes right up the other dog's fences and barks aggressively at them, which gets the big dogs very worked up.  Overall my neighborhood has good fences, they are the wooden slat ones that go up about 6 feet, you can't see through them.  

That's it for now; I like to text my Mom and aunt in the morning and ask them to pray for me.  

Made it to lunch!

 I will only have an hour when I get back.  Boss only worked until 6 and wasn't awful to me, either.  

I am glad I have a ride home tonight I am tired.  It is exhausting being around unstable mentally ill watching my back and staying out of reach.  

And I should get a decent amount of sleep too.

That's it for now.  

There are a lot of manic people running around my city

 I think it's the nicer weather.  I was OK until I got to the transit center there was a woman at my bus stop.

What I should have done, seeing that, was ride one of the other buses to a shared stop.  But I did not.  I will say I was very careful handing out candy and made a point to stay out of reach; which was a trick because she was very agitated and restless, moving around a lot.  She did not get on my bus, not that I think the driver would have let her.

There was the usual noon crowd of assorted nut cases on the route and I was really happy to get off.

I had a headache on the bus but it cleared up when I ate.

The morning shift looks aggravated so maybe the boss worked an early shift.  We will see.  That's it for now!  

Wednesday night

 So there is a pack of dogs living by the bus stop, I saw it tonight.  

Good to know: my new stun gun arrived tonight and I put it on the charger.  It is actually done charging and will be traveling with me from now on.  

Work was OK; when I left the homeless man was at the bus stop kept trying to talk to me.  I think, to them, there are 2 sorts of people; those who will feed their habit and those who will not.  

The bus was late and we picked up the crazy man again, the one who beat up the old man, then was raving to me about demons.  

Don't get me wrong, I believe in demons.  But this guy was delusional.  Today it was robots.  He said his daughter was replaced with a robot and I really hoped he did not have any contact any more.  

We got stuck in traffic which meant I got to the transit center after dark.  I had all sorts of new drivers coming by I had never met and handed out 4 bags of candy with Scripture booklets - and they were happy to get it.  One guy was grinning widely as he opened the door and said "I haven't seen you in ages!"  I thought that was cute.  

I got off the bus and saw the dogs up ahead but they did not bother me.  I came home, talked to my family, made myself pancakes.  I took my pills because I don't want it to be me raving on the bus one day.  

And I'm going to bed.  

Wednesday lunch

 Yesterday I got an invitation to a dinner hosted by World Missionary press.  It will be in Houston.  I am very interested in attending.  I went ahead and asked for the day off I just need to figure out transportation.  

That boss is coming in at 2 so I will likely only see her for an hour today.

Biscuit kept sleeping on my foot last night it was cramping today.  He was waiting on the porch last night when I got home I don't think he likes me feeding them at night.

My mood is up and down today not crazy about that.  

That's it for now.
