Holiday insanity

I am so glad that I'm notone of those kinda of people that get super into the holiday's. Its just another dark, depressing time of year for me, with a pagan holiday that the christians stole and called their own cause they couldn't stop the pagans beliefs, so they incorporated them. The whole true meaning has gone commercial, its all about the $$$ and stimulating the economy.

Holiday update

So after asking and asking about the holiday schedule at work, and then being told I had a week off, things of course had to change, and now its not like that any more, and I should be ad I guess, but i've already worked out a back up plan now, I'll still get the car for a week, but now will make a cuople trips to the storage unit and try to move as much of my stuff as possible, the little stuff like clothes, pictures and such. Then I'll still drive to either Hermiston and then to Boise to get my stuff, or something like that. I'm still working things out.

Almost the weekend, again

So where does the time go? It seems like forever ago I moved up here and really its been just over two months. Same for missing my dog, its only been a couple months.
I was hoping to have a little fun money this check, or at least a little to put away and try to save, but I still owe the landlord Gil the rest of my deposit and still owe for Boodah, when he gets here, which will be whenever we can figure out who and how to get him here.
I wish I had more to report, but life is pretty boring right now, without any money or anyone to do anything with. Lame!

As the dayz blurrrrrr

So I just started another week of work, and still no true dayz off again. I did manage to get almost 9 hours of OT again last week. So that will be 2 good checks in a row, which is good cause i still owe the landlord $255 in deposit, and another $300 for BooDah. Plus all the other stupid bills that tend to eat up all our money, like phone and storage unit, though after next month, I think we are both done with it, one year exact that we've had it. I need to rent a truck and just get it moved over here so I can go through it one bag at a time, there are so many.
That's about it for my life right now.

So bored

So with no tv, or computer, or radio or any of our modern devices, my life is so isolated and boring that once again, I have given up both of my days off this week to go and work in other stores for OT. This week, I am filling in at Specialties in the Bellvue Square Mall. Never been to Bellvue before, its a whole different city on the other side of Lake washington. Its quite the commute and yet its really not, about 45 minutes on bus, but it takes three to get there. Need my dog up here sooo bad, so like today I could say no thanks to work and go run around with Boodah all day, since this is Seattle and he can go everywhere with me, cause I got papers for him, as a service/companion animal!!
The paycheck this friday will be nice, as will the first one next month, and that's the only thing keeping me going.

First Day Of Not Being Homeless

So I'm at the library using the computer, listening to the Halloween show on Drum And Bass Arena, thanks Terry and Karen for the headphones, cause I got the volume up sooo loud and nobody can hear a thing. Listening to a little old school with DJ AMC. Plus I've been catching up on everyones blogs, so please don't forget to post!!! I love Carisa'a blog with all the pictures of Weston. Can't wait til i get a computer again and can start uploading pictures to this blog. I want to show everyone all the wonderful places that make up my world here in Seattle. I was so glad to wake up this morning and walk in my boxers to the bathroom and take a shower!! Its the little things that you miss being homeless. I don't mind being cold as long as I am dry.
Work is going well, though this new 4 soup a day promotion is really making me work on tuesdays and thursdays. And there just isn't any room in our walkin fridge for all the soup I have to make now, close to 80 gallons a week. Trying to keep track of it all, inventory and product rotation and waste, is kinda tricky too. And I have to use soups up before they expire, so changng dailies and keeping the litchen lead informed, something new with working for a corporate store.
I just need my dog up here now and then I can start over again, get a routine and some kind of life.

Things move on

So while I am depressed and upset that i didn't get that place, I am thankful that I have the ability and the resources to get myself out of tent city someday and have a real place to live. My education and job skill set is far superior than most of the residence of tent city. I sometimes feel for them, as we sit around the table at night. I mean, the worse thing that is holding me back is my eviction, so I'm glad there's no felonies, sorry kevin, against me or that I have a job that is paying me pretty well, and has let me turn a part time job, into a full time one, even got 7.6 hour OT last week, so for now things are ok. I am tired of being wet. I can deal with being cold, the wind, just not being wet, with no way to dry out and get warm. It suck when everythimg gets damp, not really wet, but far from dry. There's a chill you just can't shake. I miss my dog BooDah alot, and hopefully he'll get to move up soon, cause I need him here, cause its too depressing a winter to be without him, come on now, he is a service dog.
Sorry to disappoint everyone with such a mild rant on Saturday. I just didn't have the energy to properly vent my anger, and now the moments passed. I've moved on, and hopefully this new place I'm calling on today will turn out.
