[2018] 157/365: Just a Little Rizzo In My Life

Poor Rizzo only gets nighttime sleeps with me ever since I got this job and it’s usually up to five hours! Poor boy misses his mama and couldn’t wait for these cuddles!

Work is piling up, and I kind of like it. I only wish I lived closer so that I am not wasting time in traffic or from driving in general. Oh well. One step at a time.

I had an hour and a half phone call with Delisha just now. I never thought, out of all the people I met at my old job, she’ll be the one I keep most in touch with! It’s crazy how life works out and I wouldn’t have it any other way. She seems to be so in love with everything in her life and it makes me SO freaking HAPPY! I love hearing her updates and I cannot wait for the next one.

I finally got a haircut. I’ve been meaning to get one but have been SUPER busy/lazy. The last time I went was with Scruffy to his aunt’s. That was MONTHS ago! I sat waiting for a good twenty minutes before the receptionist took me to get my hair washed. She wasn’t the best and I felt her nails digging into my scalp. I guess that’s her way of “massaging.” Also, the seat didn’t have a footstep so I was on my tiptoes the whole time putting a strain on my neck but whatevs.

[2018] 156/365: Hairdid

I waited for a while longer sitting in the seat before this lady cut my hair. She was super duper nice and I actually like how my hair came out! I have to wait until I wash and blow dry myself, but overall, it wasn’t bad. I was so happy to have found her and hoped she could do my hair FOREVER … but she’s pregnant and will not be of service any longer. Plus this place was supposed to be on the way home from work but they will be moving to a different location later in the year. Sigh. I haven’t looked up to see if it’s still going to work out but fingers crossed because if this lady is good, I am hoping the other two that work there will be too.

Now off to snuggle with Rizzo until bed time. Night, y’all!

[2018] 155/365: Delicious Breakfast

Guys, I’ve been to Black Walnut Cafe a handful of times and I’ve never felt this place was good enough until today. The meats were on point, the potatoes were perfect, and the eggs were delicious. Just everything … ugh. I like when food makes your day better. Maybe that’s why I’m a fattie.

Another thing about work … something magical happened. The mean lady had a 360 and have been super nice and helpful today. I’m not sure what happened but I’m thankful it did. I am able to do my work and get back on the right track. Sometimes, I feel like she could be lying about some things so that I look bad but other times I think I’m just overthinking it. I’ll go with the latter and hope for the best.

[2018] 151/365: KFC

Work has been brutal but I was able to look forward to getting away. Scruffy came to drop off Luna after I got home from work and we headed to Galveston.

This is my first trip with his family and we were able to borrow their friend’s beach house. I’m not too sure what is planned so we’ll see how it goes.

Scruffy’s opened one part to his presents because he couldn’t wait. I can’t wait for him to open the rest. I’m not sure if he’ll love it but hopefully he likes it enough to use it all. Eeep!!

I’m ready to relax. Until tomorrow! Bye.

When I walked into the breakroom my heart was a little broken to see we were having quiche. But when I took that first bite, I took back all my thoughts. It was very delicious. It was funny because the guy I went to grab it with said he had the same feelings until he took his first bite. This goes to show, don’t judge food by their looks.

Work has been tough the past few days and last week and it doesn’t seem to be letting up. I try not to let it get to me but it’s so hard when it’s your reputation on the line and when your work ethic is to always do 110% and someone isn’t letting you. Sigh … I guess only my perfectionists will understand.

[2018] 150/365: Michelle & Meeting Claire

I left work, went home and picked up my presents to Claire and headed over to Michelle’s house. They were finally in town and I finally got to meet Claire! She was born last September and I keep forgetting that it’ll be a year soon. Crazy. We didn’t do much but catch up, watch The Wiggles, and eat Chinese takeout.

Since they don’t have family around where they live, Michelle needs all the help she can get and seeing Matt be hands-on confirmed that. It made me so happy to see them be such great parents to little ole Miss Fussbucket, as Michelle calls her.

It was so nice to get to touch Michelle. I know, that sounds weird, but when you miss your friend, you want to hold them tight and never let them go. I keep telling myself, just a few more years and they’ll be moving back. By then Claire will be four and well, I’m ready. Counting down the days till they’re back forever.
