got paid so i got some fish from razzo’s. i don’t think i’ll be spending much money for the next couple of months though. managed to resist buying myself a planner, which was hard. but i really can’t be spending money right now. just hope i can keep up with my finances. gas is so expensive now, it’s crazy…

getting paid tomorrow but already annoyed about it, because i know we will have to spend all our money right away. and can’t really indulge for several months.
At least we will get our septum pierced this wknd- looking forward to that.

horses were kind of disappointing today because we had a different wrangler and i had to ride blue. we didn’t get to practice trotting because i didn’t feel comfortable doing so on him. the wrangler was nice, but i just really prefer to have some normalcy. idk if it’s my autism or what but when plans change, i can get kind of pissy.
i told Elias that if her owner keeps taking shaker, on Tuesdays, we should change our ride days to Thursday. he was reluctant to agree but realized he’d been pretty lucky to always ride Wilkie so he said it’s okay if we need to change.
and ugh, one-on-one w/ gabby tomorrow.. it’s usually fine and only takes five minutes but calls make me nervous. it’s a miracle i didn’t revolt w/ the daily morning meetings @ TLC.
okay hand hurts no more writing

Horses tomorrow. I love being on the horse but hate starting up. I hate getting on it and also waiting for the ride to start. I wish I could fall in love with the starting process, too.
Until I do, I will always be annoyed with having to drive there, waiting around. Etc.
I’m also scared of trotting, so I need more practice with that. I can’t post for shit. I’ll keep practicing and doing my best.

today was very sleepy. mostly just slept. what a great way to spend a sunday.
unfortunately alisia hasn’t been feeling too good today, so we didn’t really get to do much together. i hope by sleeping, she will feel better.
not ready to go back to work yet… sigh haha.

lately i have been feeling restless and wanting to get more accomplished. i haven’t been able to start any of my hobbies back again for some reason.
still trying to get used to this new found energy. i guess.
i wish my sunburn would stop peeling too. and i’m not feeling well. tonight. feeling kind of sick? hard to describe.
i hope sleeping it off will work..
good night!!!

today i am so cold. i just got out of the shower oops (ah not this one too oh then it goes)
Amanda says i am journaling wrong but screw her bc Stephanie says i can journal however i like.
the irs still owes me money those bastards. sum bullshit!
tomorrow is friday. today i took it really easy today because there wasn’t much easy work. but i still hit my bare minimum. i might have to do that tomorrow too.
i finished a book about minimalism today. it was okay. kind of repetitive though.
anyway im tired zzz good night!

Work was productive today. but i felt tired all day and slept in later than usual. i accidentally have therapy tomorrow because she scheduled us for this week instead of next week. i don’t know what to talk to her about. maybe we will come up with something.

today was good. we went horse back riding and did more trotting it was kind of scary, but i think with more practice, i will be less scared. i was allowed to ride shaker even though her owner was there which was really nice of them, they definitely didn’t have to let me ride her.
um not much else went on today. it was a slow easy day at work so i’m thankful. i just hope gabby doesn’t get on me about only doing OCTS and segmentation. those are just the quick, easy ones to do. i’m too lazy to do the other ones haha.
still trying to recover from vacation so i’m easily distracted at work. my sunburn is also blistering and peeling like crazy. ugh… i’ll live though…

I got a lot done today. I had enchiladas for dinner, but they made my stomach hurt. I want to watch Chii-chan’s grad concert some time this week.
Tomorrow is horses. I love them, but I know it will be hot. I hope it doesn’t exacerbate my sun burn. I will need to drink lots of water. My stamina is getting better, though. I am excited and I hope they have Shaker for me to ride.
Um, that’s all for now. Trying to keep up with journaling, even if it is mundane.

Today was our birthday - 32. It was very fun. We got lots of presents and they were all amazing. The cake was also very good. I’m glad we have someone who spoils us, even though we usually don’t have the money to spoil them. I will try to get them lots of stuff next year if finances allow.
Wish I could sleep in tomorrow, but it’s church day. Maybe someday Phil will learn how to drive himself…
Happy

Update: Literally the next day, Elias got a job offer. They are very good, and I hope this place will actually appreciate them.
It’s at a place that does medical imaging, he’s going to be looking @ eyes all day. Super happy and proud of him. We went out to eat @ Cheesecake Factory to celebrate and then went to Barnes and Noble.
Couldn’t be happier or prouder of him (& them). I’m so happy.
We’ll see how the place is. It seems good because the starting wage is decent and they have good benefits. So, it should be okay.
Sloppy handwriting. Tired… good night.

It’s going to be hard, it looks like Elias may finally be getting laid off. I think it’s a blessing in disguise though. Welocalize has proven to be the shittiest little garbage company ever created. He already has a lot of promising interviews anyway.
Curious to see how it turns out. with how slow I am to update this thing, I’ll be Christmas and long past this dilemma so hopefully I can write an update.
My job is fine. I wish it was busier. But when it is busy, I get stressed out. I should just enjoy the “downtime” while its here i guess. I’m still going to ask tomorrow if Heather has anything she wants me to be doing. Since it seems like she kinda is my manager. I just wish it were clearer.
Who knows whats going to happen next. Life keeps going, and my life is pretty good right now. I just need to call dad at some point soon, I miss him…

Yesterday I got a raise @ work! That was nice. Last week, Phil and I went up to Fort Worth so that we could go to the potluck. It was fun.
This past weekend we decided to go no contact with the mother in law because she did something really horrible. I don’t like the way she has chosen to live her life. I think it’s pretty pathetic.
Today I had a really bad dr appt. It’s getting old to hear I’m fat. I know I am.
Anyway, that’s all.

tomorrow is the last day @ welocalize and it’s so weird?? they offered me a position on the financial team, but i’ve had a few interviews with better fits. i had already “accepted” the position with welo and it feels kind of bad to renege but it’s my life and i need to do my best for myself. not for anyone else, especially a company that treats their employees as disposable
still, it’s weird… we have been with welo for 2 years now, so quitting seems strange. it’s the same amount of time we were @ vtg, but vtg feels longer? maybe because we switched positions but it might also have been the general hectic atmosphere of Date: 2019+Date: 2020
anyway, it’s the end of an era. honestly fuck welo as a company and fuck anyone high enough in the food chain that they enable the bullshit.
(once again too lazy to get up and get stickers)

Today we got laid off basically without any notice?? Very weird and upsetting. We knew it was a contract position, but a group call isn’t the place to drop that info suddenly. Veronika and John were equally as confused.
I feel like such a baby for being upset by it. Especially since I have interviews tomorrow. I also feel bad that I am judging my emotions because I know they are valid. Doesn’t make me feel any less guilty though.
I hate not knowing what is going to happen. I also hate that you reading this, here, does know what happens and I don’t. Give me an update underneath this entry?
I’ll try to be grateful for what I have. I have my family + that is the most important part.
(the update written underneath the entry)
It ended up fine + we got a job pretty much right away again @ TLC.
You worry too much!!!

this last week was absolute chaos. between trauma dates, super busy work and the winter storm it snowed a lot for texas and everyone’s power had gone out.
on the bright side, i got paid on friday and i started a latch hook. it’s a rainbow latchhook. i hope i can finish it within the next few weeks.
i am going to have an interview next wednesday for a jewelry place and i had one last week for a freelance health care position. i am just mad at localice for how terrible and busy this week has been.
hopefully we get a new better paying job sooner than later.
i’m going to bed now because my neck hurts. and i also can’t write much without my hand and arm hurting.

I am trying to get over my anxiety of using stickers lol
I can’t believe we have had this stupid journal for five years.

The message written before this entry: “Tomorrow is a new day, cherish it.”
That is a much needed message. Thank you.
It’s been a long, terrible week. Good and bad, really.
I’m having trouble telling the difference between dreams, reality and hallucinations lately.
Everything is just blending together. Maybe this is a sign of too much stress. I do not know.
I am ready to turn the page to a new chapter of our life. One without Hoodoo, completely.
If only the courts would let us, that would be wonderful.
Anyway, I hope this letter finds you well. We are currently -300 dollars in our bank account so if you had a bad day, at least it isn’t this bad, hopefully.
Tired. Tomorrow is a new day indeed.
