Waiting for a call from the National Careers Service for help starting a new life in Consumer Advocacy. 33 years and I finally have an aspiration worth a damn. Currently, I'm working menial jobs as physio therepy to help me recover from a traffic accident some years ago. It allows me to stick headphones in and widen my knowledge base via audio books and headphones (just finished History of Rome, 10 out of 10, have already forgotten the beginning so will go again) while getting an enforced light workout.

But, I'm done with that now... Maybe not done with that, depending on if I can source on the job training or of I have to go back to school. I'm nervous about committing to a full time position; part time plus homemaking is still a bit of an ask for me, but I usually don't do things till I'm forced to so shrug. Commit and deal with it I guess.

Also, heading out to a tailor to get my trousers fitted for a wedding next week, so that's nice. But also dealing with landlord and letting agent issues so that's not nice. All in all, can't complain.

Last Saturday I put a deposit down on a motorbike.. today I get the phone call to tell me they can't get one.. they offered a bigger bike for a cheaper price. I'm new to riding and think a 650 will be too much bike. Really dampened my day.. anyways,.gonna go check it out tomorrow. Who knows, it might suit me better!

I got up at 3:30am for work today. Ugh

Day off today and soon heading out to a contemporary art exhibition in a nearby town with my SO - and to take a look around the town too, since we haven't been there for ages.

Then I'm out again this evening for a bat survey at a new nature reserve, recently acquired by the local Wildlife Trust.

I started a new job last week and it’s not bad so far. It’s a good change after spending 5 years working with crazy bosses who were insulting people all the time.

Woke up with a bit of a headache. But caffeine and Advil seem to be doing the trick. One more busy day to get through, and then we’ve made it to the weekend!

A normal friday for me.. :)

I work with special needs students. This semester I'm 1 on 1 with one of the cutest Down Syndrome girls ever. Yesterday she just did NOT want to go to her culinary class. She just wanted to go home after being at school for only an hour. There was no budging her.

Today, not only did she go to culinary, but she had a blast taking part in the lesson. I had a blast watching her.

Now I'm laying in bed and my partner has fallen asleep spooning me. I'd say my day is going pretty well. Nice start to the weekend.

Trying to decide between The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind (OpenMW), Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, doomscrolling in Lemmy, or doing some work instead. So far, work has been winning, but I'm not sure of continued success.

It's Friday ! I can walk around and hang out during an easy day

It’s going great! Just finished my summer job yesterday, and I have two weeks off before I start my school job. Looking forward to lots of sleeping in!

I have a later shift today than normal. I woke up early and decided to go for a bike ride. Was nice but it gave me a migraine aura lol. I don't have a headache atm so I think I'm still good! Today I'm paired with one of my favorite coworkers when I go in to work today. I have a delicious sub sandwich waiting for me in the fridge for dinner when I get home. And it's Friday and payday! So all in all it's pretty good so far.

Going great. Got a coffee and Starbucks made my order right this time. Sat on a park bench and just relaxed there for 45 minutes. Can't complain about anything really, it's Friday.
