Wednesday, What Dreams May Come

 Work is heating up. I really don't understand a lot of my job, but I'm getting there. I have an HR screen for a potential 2nd job. I hope it goes well. I prepped and reviewed my resume and job description.

I told someone about it so that may not work in my favor. Honestly, if I were looking at my resume I'd be impressed.

Still feeling a little lost without any real goals for this year (2022). I think I had some loose personal and/or mental health goals. But that's more for show than anything. Mental health is all the rage.

I'm proud of myself for going to get a physical, but my big plans of setting up therapy and physical therapy just have been pushed to the wayside.

I like goals with measurable objectives and metrics. Feelings and even lack of pain feelings just don't give the same pizazz.

Am I happier today than I was yesterday? Do I feel less rejected today than I did Friday? Hrmph.

Money goals were easier however daunting they were when I first started.

I spent a lot eating out these last few days. Like a human, I've actually gotten used to just staying upstairs. Now it's another mental hurdle to feel comfortable being downstairs again. Meh, or I could just stay camped-up up here.

Who knows.

Trying to kill time before my interview.

Think I'll splurge on some cut fresh fruit today for lunch. My body could use a boost of nutrition after my 7-day fried feast. 

I can't believe it's only Day 3 of the week. So many money moves and contact from people, it feels like a lifetime of things. I have to run a big meeting next week and I have no idea how it's going to go. Oh, Lord, please help me!

I think we're tabling the Husband Hunt indefinitely. Honestly, I'm surprised the Feelings lasted this long. I thought it was just seasonal because of the holidays and light workload. But yeah, onwards.

I got a $100 sign up bonus yesterday for an account I opened a few months ago. I used part of it to fund a 529 for a family friend's kids that lost their dad recently. 

Getting closer to getting a phone. I think I'll need one to do my taxes this year because the app requires 2-factor authentication. And then after that, I think I'll be able to sign up for Mint Mobile. 

Maybe I can get a phone for my own needs. It doesn't actually have to mean I give the number out. I can still have old fam and friends email me. I'm not signing for 2 more decades of being anyone else's low priority.

Yeah, I think that's how I have to look at it. The modern world is forcing me to have a real cell phone. I'll just get the cheapest one to meet my needs. 

Once I get the phone, I'm definitely going to change my GV number once more and likely get a new one just in case.  I'd like to think I was emotionally resilient enough to keep the old one, but that would not be consistent with reality.

Luckily the weather is nice outside. I hope it stays. I don't remember much what February weather is like. Probably a few more cold days will sneak in there.
