I wake up each morning reading that the one I have been dreaming about is jot laying next to me.

Now, I dream that in a week come Saturday that dream will be turned around and I will get to spend a full day plus with my man. A dear friend I find myself wanting to build a future with. I know my so will be his standard good self while being a grump bug at the same time. He is not use to having to share mom after 5 years of us being alone. I have no clue on how to make it easier on him other than being honest and letting him know I do have an interest in this man coming to see me. I know to let him I'm know the man I'm interested in is not replacing his father but know he will feel other wise.

Well, I can tell its fall here. The rains have come and though light are nonstop. I hear many complain about it but they don't seem to understand that the here is how the land keep healthy during the long winter months. If we get enough rain before freeze in the spring the valleys before they thaw will not run dry.

With all that said I have had the normal flurry of customers getting kids ready for school. I will say it seems strange, if only because this is all going on after school starts by about 2 weeks late. Many are finding the teachers are asking for the same things for the students to have as if they are in school simply do to those items being everyday use things. Sadly a lot of the desks, chairs and electronics are sold out with in 2 days of receiving so it is an ongoing battle to find things for the customers. With that said we do our best to have them walk out happy and with possible option that will fit their needs or if possible the next expected shipment date thought we do make a point to let them know thing are selling as fast as we get them in. With that in mind I make a point to say that there is always a chance for something to come in and that if it does its will be like an Easter egg because it might come in without me knowing about it. Its not uncommon for me to make myself look silly in effort to get a smile from a customer that seem to be having a bad day. On that note i normally call my pin-pad the young one; my cash register the old one. and that they think I'm the pickle in the middle to pick. A get giggles from adults even those having a bad day and kids burst out laughing thing that is so funny. My managers roll their eyes at hear that saying one more time but love seeing the reaction the customers have with it.


Sincerely yours,

Keep writing the words of your heart
and one day your dreams will come true.

Well I'm a bit tired but all in all things are going well. In fact there is a chance I will get to spend labor day weekend with my man.

As for the past several days things have been for the most part good. Take today I had my day planned out at work with what I needed to do. Sadly, it was taking longer than I had time for it to take. But they cannot get mad at me for that one simply because I do have customers to deal with that come first. And some how or way the shift manager forgot that I was doing things that have been needed to do for a while now so he kept stacking things on. Trying to say what I was doing was second to tend to. Now, with that said the funny thing was what i was trying to work on was a first priority simply because if it was done the rest would fall into place because there would be room for it. So. I kept plugging away at the main job so the rest could be done as well.

Though the manager did stop in to growl only to find out that i had things in the right order to do in spite of his demands. I just tucked my head to hide the laughter in my eyes and kept going.

Its it's been a while since I wrote here. But I can say my week of emotions lead to the first week of school for my son. With that said. My son's first day of school ended up going great thanks to one of my bosses resetting my schedule so that I started later in the day. That ment I was able to ensure that my son knew how to get online with his teachers and that lead to me having a great day. The following day was stressful but I think it was my owning doing. Grant it I had a productive day at work with all that I did do. My bosses are still not sure what to do with me since there is not a lot I cannot do. That mostly means I dont work 2 departments. Yet only one I dont help out in. Simply because I dont have training in that department.

But it comes down to I had a good week.

I have a feeling that my week off did more harm than good. I just dont have the drive for work that I did. I have broken down now twice since I got back. Grant it once was do to two managers complaining about the mess one was making while blaming me and not giving me the time to take care of it.

Then again it could be that I am simply emotionally worn out. I have my son at home but home is empty not a place I want to go. In fact it's gotten to the point I just want to either walk or just curl up. Things I want and or dream about are just so far away. I know my son dose not understand for all we have been through I have tried to not let him feel like I am not there. I know at times I have failed but at lest I'm trying to do the right thing.

Well, all in all today was a good one. Test came back saying my house is clear of this nuisance virus. My boss was cheering because she knows how much this is bugging me and that all our customers kept seeking their cheery cashier that know more than she shows. The other store managers I know are cheering because it eases their load and means I can jump straight into training new hires if we have any.

My son and I finally got out of the house after being locked in for 5 days waiting. Though i have to say he once he realised that it was us. He accepted that the game time was not just his but ours.

Just in time for school to start.

Ever had one of those days it feels like no one wants you around?

That is the way my day got going. Though I would not be surprised to find out that it is because I decided to clean.

I do my best to keep ahead of the mess but the way I have been feeling lately makes it really hard to do anything. I just want to walk. Grant it that needing feeling to walk has truly gotten me out of depression before because o kept blood flowing and did not let things build up inside. But stuck inside well that has taken away that right.

Well, my writing does not seam to want to come back as of yet. With that saying my son introduced me to ARK. It is an interesting servival game including dinosaurs and mythical beast. I do find it an interesting game to play if for nothing more than the survival aspect. Then you get to also tame creatures to accompany you. Some are easy if you have the right gear. Others take time and effort so you can to tame them.

The only issue I have is that there is no good guide to the game to start with. Having never played the game it took me about 2 hours to straighten out the game mechanics and figure out how to tame my first creature. But one I figured that out it all came together.

Well, I went in to get tested for the virus today. Now I get to wait to see what the results are. I know it is for the best I get tested its just annoying because my work really does not have the man power to cover me being gone. Then again each day has been a challenge for the store because we are short handed. a little is do to people getting better jobs We lost a few thanks to they were not able to wear the mask. One or two we lost so that they could go home and care for elders of their villages. leaving us with just a few people for floor crew. Sadly that means the managers are now working the floor instead of guiding those working the floor. At one time the managers would just help get stuff done so the floor crew could work faster.

I sit here thinking of what to write. I only find a blank screen meeting my mind. then again that is what we are looking for in life so that one day we might turn around and see the amazing mural our life has left behind. Sadly I keep turning around to see what I just came through and drop myself down because I just look at the last few depressing years I have been through.

Then again it might be that I am stressing simply because I have no way of spending time with my man. Thanks to being 300-miles apart. Them again I don't have transportation to travel that distance so it means this one sided on traveling. I feel the stress of it because I dream once more of being held just to wake and be alone.
