Life

 It's been quite a week. The summer heat has been rough at work. I am counting down the days until fall and the time change comes.

It looks like I will be in a new home by or before October. I can't wait for it to happen. I can't wait to get a home where I plan to spend the rest of my time until it's time to move back to my hometown.

I can't wait to finish accomplishing the goals that I set for myself for this year. 

Soon, we will see the beautiful changes of the season, I love it! Watching the leaves change color and the air become crisper makes life better in my opinion.

Labor day is a week away, and with it comes the beginning of it all. The only sad part about this season is that the new school year is not happening as it should because of the pandemic. I miss seeing the school buses going by...they always gave me a sense of nostalgia.

This last week, I got a little lucky.  We had someone return to work after a long absence because of his sick child...I was doing his job the entire time while being bullied by a very hateful human being.  I am now doing a different job where she doesn't have any reason to talk to me unless it is necessary, so I have not been stressed out at all this week. I can't wait until the world rights itself so that we can bring in the staff that had to be laid off. Usually we pick up around the fall and early winter, with the world situation right now, I can only hope that it will not be that bad.

It has been a weird year for me at the age of fifty.  I can't believe that it ended up like this, but it is what it is so I can only take things one thing and day at a time while being patient. Things will get better, and the world will find a new way to deal with things after this. I was looking forward to turning fifty and making it memorable, but it looks like the world had a different thought on making me always remember this age. Gotta love nature and the state of the world.

I am planning on a vacation. I finally get one week, and it feels great to start going in a normal direction in life  It finally feels like I am doing right things to move forward in life. 

This week, I will set up my 401k, try to work more hours in our other department, and start packing an saving for my IRA plan. 

I may have to wait for a while to go to the dentist to get my teeth fixed. I want to save a bit more for that. I normally hate going to the dentist because it means that someone has to spend time in my personal face space. It drives me nuts, but I know that I have to do eventually.

Recently, I have been reading more. Mostly Outlander or Regency romances. It has been years since I have wanted to read a book for relaxation. I think that I am starting to do things as I used to do. I love reading.

I am feeling more and more like i used to feel. The person I miss more than anyone on the planet. I am happy that I can see her once again.

Have a great day!
