Friday!!!!

yes, I'm working. I'm supposed to be at work in 4 minutes. It's a good thing we're all late on Friday's.

In the world of fast food there are no holidays.....except thanksgiving and Christmas.

So, for the last 2 or 3 months, I have pretty much just been disconnected from life and people. Basically I get up, go to work, go home and go to bed. I have no desire to converse or even function normally. I can feel myself becoming hermit and I basically just live in my own head. I feel like a bad friend, but have no ambition to even attempt to change that. Anyway, I just thought I would say something.

Working, but getting off at noon cause I'm going Eugene today and didn't want to deal with traffic.

I'm working 11-8 today because I had ANOTHER FUCKING ROOT CANAL today
Ugh

Hmm. I know when I am living in solitude/isolation, the longer it lasts, the harder it is to seek people out. Have you found that too?

Katy, I went through something similar for the few months around Christmas. It felt really heavy and oppressive.
I love you dear, talking or no talking.
I'll just keep trying to sneak up and scare you on gmail

yes... and it's easier to keep my worries to myself.

What's going on then? Tell us (or me, I'm chatting you on gmail as I type)

it's really just the same issues i always have.. and i hate repeating myself.

just pray my car doesn't break on my drive to eugene.

I'm glad that even though you are feeling like a hermit, you shared with us Katy. I know I do have times like that...mostly for me though, I have them because I worry that people don't want to hear me. I am grateful for the forum and this group of people who really makes me feel cared about....I hope we make you feel that way too.

What kind of root was that?

Very true. Thank you, katy, for confiding this stuff with us. Especially if you aren't doing so with many others. That's a real honor.

And yes, there isn't much that happens in my life that I don't share with you all--i feel very comfortable! Actually, speaking to you guys through this forum helps me formulate thoughts etc into words most of the time. I don't know what I'd do without you listening!!

Hey, how come the word censor didn't pick up my curse word?

"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. A righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all." - Psalm 34:17-19 (NIV)

This too shall pass, Katy. I go in and out of that mode myself.

it's because of the 'ing' at the end, it's a different word to the censor....hadn't really thought about that.

Going home 3 hours early with pay for the win!
Thank you slow phones for this good Friday gift.

Nate came home a little early too! YAY!

I worked, came home and napped. Got up and went to our church's awesome Good Friday service. I came home and got an unexpected phone call from some friends which was fantastic and then shortly there after got a call from my sister to tell me that brother rolled his truck tonight. Seems he swerved to avoid a deer and ditched the truck causing it to roll into the field.

He's o.k. just really shaken up, the invincible Julio (Bethany's nickname for him) has discovered how close he came to death.

At this point it seems there is no alcohol involved, but knowing my brother like I do I have a strong suspicion there was. He was working in the yard all day and then went and played 18 holes of golf and dinner with a buddy. I hate to think it, but I know my brother....I just hope if I'm right that this is his wake up call.

All in all an eventful day.

So my brother took a breathalizer and blew a 0. I was actually quite shocked, but happy. Now he's just worried he'll lose his job, we have no idea why as it's not illegal to have an accident. He's going to be sited for failure to maintain control, but he hasn't had an accident or speeding ticket in over 15 years. I think he's just paranoid, but we'll see.

Just happy he's o.k.

that is good news, Pete! I think his job will be safe.

What's his job? (Also I'm glad Julio's ok!)

He's a flight medic, but he's also employed as a ground medic which involves a CDL and they check his driving record every three months. I can't imagine how this accident would threaten his job, I think he's just being paranoid.

I just wondered, Nicole's brother was a long haul driver and he got in an accident in his personal vehicle (no alcohol involved) and was suspended from his job for 3 months because of his moving violation. So he might be right to be paranoid but hopefully nothing will come of it

Yeah, my dad lost his job over an vehicle fire that wasn't his fault because it went on his record and he does not mess around with his personal record either because it affects his CDL big time.

well, it is the day I have been waiting for. The cake is baked, but not put together, and I went grocery shopping....so I have to get dinner together and put my little scavenger hunt together....it will be a fast moving day.

Work first though, so I have to get everyone together to get out the door! And then lunch with Nate and then my birthday work begins.

I hope everyone has a great day!

I'm home sick today, my tummy is really really sick thanks to this antibiotic, which is the 2nd one I've tried to take the first one made it really sick too. But this time I'm puking too and having massive cramps.
Ugh.
