got the Patriot out of the shop and it was a wiring issue. been struggling with a UTI since Friday and it's not clearing up. swapped antibiotics and getting a CT to check my kidneys to be sure they're okay. it's absolutely insane the problems i have at work to try and get time off for this.

got two dead vehicles now. alternator is out in both which sucks and leaves me a car without AC that gets great gas mileage or the beast (as i call the Yukon) with AC and crappy gas mileage but decent AC. lights on the Yukon don't work much either so that one's out. sigh.

Finally got the curtains put up that we ordered and they look good. Showing an outside shot of the house as well.

Photo dump of scenes from driving places and getting things done. Some from sunset and one near the beach.

More photos of me from a few weeks back and through work and a crawfish boil.

Out and about again and doing some shopping before I go home. One of the pics has me trying to dance with the 3 yr old class. That didn't go over so well. Oops. I'm trying but it's not been that easy lately.

Wedding vibes and this is what we're wearing to it. It's at my sister's wedding . I'm just glad I made it here for this.

More pics of me out and about. Two were from work when I had to wear 2 jackets thanks to the cold weather we've had here recently. Other than that, it's been okay.

Several interior shots of the house from the living room to the kitchen. Got pictures hanging and working on some other stuff. The dog is Wally, our year old Dashchund. Have had him since November.

Relocated the Thundercats sticker to the back of my laptop to keep it safe in case I upgrade my phone later. It's fine there and the laptop is a new one so I should be good.

Posting stuff here and on X whenever I remember to do this one.

Getting ready for the last half of the day but I hate these damn kids. There, I said it. They're evil little snots that don't listen and treat every teacher badly. I want out of this place and somewhere else but as to what, I don't know now. I just don't have the vocals for them.

Snow days from January. This was fun and got me out of work for 3 days. Definitely a delight. Love the snow even if it is a bit odd here on the coast.

Two of the cats: Mittens and Lola and me. Work has been crazy but I'm surviving and have been there a year so there's that. 😁πŸ₯°

One of me with a new fleece jacket from work plus part of the damage from shopping. Done with that for the moment and I'm tired. Back is hurting something fierce as well. Not that happy.

Causeway in New Orleans at the beginning and toward the middle. Plus one of the end (23 miles total). Had 2 appointments for hubs and doing some browsing.

Semi new car and we bought a house too and are slowly getting the furniture and appliances that we need for it. It's a cute little home and we have ideas for a deck and some other things later. Can't wait.

Dyed my hair and this is how it turned out. I'm loving it and living for it. Work has been stressful but longer breaks have helped with that.

Out and about for the afternoon and found my new flavor of milkshake: a banana 🍌 shake. Yummy. This is me with my daughter at a walk up drive in food place.

Another one at the park of me and the dog that my daughter took. Was nice out and going to the park was a good way to wear out Wally before bedtime tonight.

Out at the park with Wally and it's in the 60s for a change. Sunny and bright too. Guess the dog likes it. πŸ‘ one of me as well.

Hoodie and mug we got from my son for Christmas and one of my son. Thought I'd better share these.

haven't posted on this account in a while but i'm getting an eye exam done tomorrow after not having one in a while. still waiting to return to work but so far things are going alright. glad that my son's home for a brief visit. will share some pics later.

Had to take a break in that I had to redo the fingerprinting for the center but that should come back clean within the next week as I cleared the background check already. It is close to Christmas and I can't believe it. Life has been crazy the last few weeks but I'm happy overall. Pic of Wally.

Training at the new childcare center that I got on with and started at yesterday. Looking forward to this opportunity now.

Halloween fun at the buffet from last weekend. Worth it and these were fun friends too. Will miss them but I'm moving on to better things.

job at naval base got pulled because of a problem but i got on at another childcare center and i'm thinking that this one might go through. filled out the paperwork and did the background form too. different from the one the Navy uses so that might work. pays more than the buffet job so i'm happy.

Fingerprinting is set for this coming Thursday morning and I am glad to get that set finally. One step closer to gaining a start date at the naval base rather than staying at the casino. That job was fun but it's hard work and my back can't handle it anymore so it's time and must move on.

Saw this when I went to fill my vehicle up before going to work. Thought it was hilarious. Guess that was the easiest way to move the skeleton and it certainly got a lot of attention. I liked it and why I got the photo.

Never had that happen for a drug test in that the cup I was to pee in sprang a leak on me and I have to repeat the test in a few minutes. Bloody hell. How am I this lucky? Has anyone ever had this happen before or was it just me? #test #drugtest

This job was the only one that I could get at the time a month ago and I'm exhausted as it is. I do have 4 days off after tomorrow so that's a relief. Being a hostess isn't easy and I'm hoping I will never have to do this job again anytime soon. It is never fun and our place stays way too busy.

Tired as hell and I worked from 11a to 8p and got off so I could go back tomorrow on the same shift. Not feeling it and not that hungry at the moment even though hubs offered something for me when I got in. We live an hour from where I'm working and it's a hell of a damn drive. Not really happy now.

Did not want to get up to take my kid to the bus this morning cause they had an issue yesterday when she came home from school. She's old enough to go to the stop on her own and all. I just let her go on her own and I stayed behind. I'll walk back after the bus gets her. Not worth it this morning.

I so want to go back to bed as I didn't sleep much last night. Tired as hell after a 6 day work week at the buffet. 1 day off isn't going to help me much but it'll have to do for now. Maybe I'll be lucky and get a short nap at some point this morning.

The super moon from last night. Been an eventful couple of days lately but I'm good. Waiting for the naval clearance now. We'll see how long that will take but I'm good for now.

all paperwork for the Navy CCD job went in on time so just waiting on the background check to clear and for me to get word to go on base (or close) to do the fingerprinting. i am still shocked on this but i'll take it. i'll stay with the casino till it comes through to be sure it does.

work this coming week is going to be nuts as i work 2p to 9.30p on Wed and Thurs and Fri from 11a to 7p. Sat is 2 to 10.30p and Sun is 12p to 8p. that's not counting my appts on Wed morning: one at 7.30a and one at 9.30a and then the podiatry at 2.30p on Friday during that shift. ay yi yi.

What the heck? I checked another phone I had since my daughter had used it yesterday and there was a message from the Naval base CCD that I was chosen for that assistant teacher role. Holy crap. I've got a lot of things to do and I need to call them after 7.30a as it's only 6.30a now.

New job at a new and totally different location. I'm a buffet cashier at a casino resort. Gonna be an interesting experience for me but I'll take what I can get for now. Pics are of the marina and the hotel itself.

Views of me for this one. Haven't shown many but I will do it this once.
