ravena_kadeTonight I need to limit my on line time. It's why I said I wanted a desk top. I get mad...then try to find interaction on line... and I spend more time mad than I need to.
Yesterday I got pissed at a cousin...not the Sunday cousins, but related... I only mention the lay off because they know people and my resume does not parse because I have no college listed and most Business operations positions list an associates degree even though I have 40 years of business operations experience. So I mentioned it in hope my resume can be just nudged into a spot to be viewed. That's it. Instead I get the lecture of how they know I want a job where I can use my creativity and make things and work with people, but I am not allowed to do that. I need to grow up. That I have to double down on computer stuff that I hate at get a competitive job because I only have a few years left. Ummm... I'm 58 and I have kind of dependent that needs to be at DR appointments 3 times a month...and while he can get there he doesn't have the competence or the memory to understand the medical people so I have to be there. Just how competitive in a field I hate do you think I can be? They cousins are all heard animals... unhappy so they delude themselves that money is the answer. I didn't say F off as this is someone that goes out with Dad socially. I dont want to torch that bridge.
Anyway I spent last night stewing... not good.
My Saturday plans have been postponed because of Hurricane Lee. We may not get much rain but the winds here are now already over 30 MPH. It will be worse tomorrow. We may also get flooding because of the storm surge. I plan to use the day to cook.

Date: 2023-09-17 11:37 am (UTC)I had a second thought...caught myself. The bus driver thought I was going to faint at the curb side so I told him I was dehydrated and went into a store and got a water to drink.
Not making that place's trial period was a blessing.

Also, you are allowed to have dreams. No matter what your horrible cousins say.
