Journaling the 90 day Go Hard workout Wk 5 ( LA Story)

In week five I ended up going back to work... The two weeks we spent on the beach selling art was really fun but nothing happened that made going back to work not an option. I was expecting it to go better than it did. I'm not exactly sure why it didn't. I couldn't immediately get back on schedule but they were nice enough to put me on call and I ended up working three days. Here's the kicker tho because I didn't go to work for two weeks by 8/25/22 which would have been my payday I had zero, hubby had zero too!

To be honest it was because he wasn't hustling everyday or as hard as he said he was. He has this habit of talking harder than his actions and it's annoying. Anyway everyone was happy to see me and I was happy to be back. Once again work had become the most peaceful place for my mind. The thing I like about my new job verses old career is the fact that, it's not burning me out like mental health did. I also get to wear a uniform! Yes that excites me because it's so refreshing not to have to figure out what to wear everyday. There's no pressure as to what people will think about your outfit or just plain ole having to decide.

I can just clock in and out no sweat, no talking about peoples problems, no taking people's problems home, no debrief meetings about other people that just can't seem to get their shit together. No more having to use all my mental energy to carry someone else. My God in social services you really have to create a work life balance. That's why self care is so important. These days I just go to work and go about my business, it's really refreshing.

All in all it's like i'm on a train and I have absolutely no Idea where it's going. I'm not worried about it but I would like to know that there's some type of contingency plan if the train crashes. I clearly don't expect it to but... I mean come on there's a fire drill once a month at school's & most places of employment. There's barely ever a fire. I went to school for twelve years & did all those fire drills and never experienced one fire. I never even expected one to happen, but I still had to participate & just because I participated didn't mean I was worried.

Thus ends week 5 on to week 6 the journey continues...

The Crystal (LA Story)

This is a crazy story & another one about someone trying to get in where they think they fit in. I was at work, at my lil retail gig and this lady walks up to the counter and says that she is clairvoyant and that she can tell I am going through some things, I shouldn't be at that job because I'm better than that and that my face is supposed to be well known. She said there are some other things that she would like to tell me. She gave me her card and asked me to come down to her shop and get my free palm reading. I know spiritual energy is real and she did touch on somethings that made me think maybe going to see her wouldn't be a complete waste of time. A couple days later I made the appointment and went to her shop. She read my Palm, said some things that I've heard before & then asked me to pick a crystal. I picked a heart shaped one and she stated as long as I had the crystal I will start feeling better. I know that these sessions aren'

Surviving LA part II

As the LA housing search continues... We found ourselves on the streets & out of money for a couple weeks due to the Beverly Hills swindle & the cost of staying in hotels. On day one on the streets, we both worked a night shift and spent the day sleeping in our storage unit, Day 2 was the Santa Monica/Venice beach night, sleeping in our tent & fighting a serious wind till the morning. On day 3 we fought with the wind again more severe in our tent at the Venice Graffiti walls on the beach & lost. We dramatically packed up fighting the wind the whole way & ended up camping not too far away in Penmar park. The good thing about this was that they had a bathroom available. The hauk was out too that night it was so cold, I thought I was gonna die from hypothermia. I don't even know how I made it through the night. All I know is that I was not prepared for this! The universe carried me into day 4 & we both again worked the night shift. I worked from 10
