Life Update

I had a-whole-nother topic picked out to write about today, but I didn’t follow through with it, so here we are. I figured it was better to come and write something, than to write nothing – that seems to be a reoccurring theme for me, trying to figure out when something is better than nothing. But I said I was going to post again on November 12th, so in case someone is looking for it, I don’t want to be a liar as well.

So anyway, it’s 11:27pm and I’m ‘bout to crank this life update out right quick, you guessed it, before midnight. Let’s go!

Editing my Book – I edited the entire book once again, and found more changes and edits I needed to make. I actually got tired while editing and just left a note in track changes mode to come back and make changes in some areas. Some edits require me to think, and sometimes I just wasn’t in the mood to think, so I left a note. So tomorrow, I will go back over those and make those changes. I should be finished with those tomorrow. I haven’t reached out to any editors yet.

I just had a thought: now that it’s getting close to the holidays, I wonder if these editors are even working. But hey, on a 9-5 people up to the holidays, even through the holidays. I remember this one job I was off on the 24th and the 25th for Christmas, then back in the office on the 26th. I even had a job where I worked on Christmas, so I don’t know – we’ll see.

My Job Status – Speaking of jobs, I don’t have a new one yet. To be honest finding another job hasn’t really been my priority…well, no I take that back. I guess I just really want to be intentional about the next job I take. I don’t want to take just any job. I just hope and pray that the next job I have will be a good job, with a good boss, with challenging and rewarding work. I just hope and pray that it’s a job and an employer that I enjoy. I’ve applied to four jobs so far – three last week, and one right after I got fired, though I withdrew my application for that one. But going forward I’m going to step up my game.

Truth be told, I love to work. I don’t see how people can retire. I mean, I do see if you have a shitty job how you wouldn’t want to be there, but I don’t think I would ever retire from a good job, you know, as long as I’m still good at it. I mean look at Joy Behar on The View, 80-years-old and still going strong. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love to sit at home and do nothing, but that’s only fun after you’ve been doing something. That’s only fun after you’ve been working. But when you are not working is boring as fuck. I’m bored as fuck right now, and I need to get back to work, if nothing else to give me something to do. And also for some mental stimulation, I need problems to solve, that’s just what I do.

7-Day Juice Cleanse – This turned out to be more like seven hours. First of all, I bought a Nutribullet not an actual juice, so it’s really a blender. But I actually prefer it that way, I think it’s healthier, because that way I get the whole fruit or vegetable not juice the juice. The benefits are in the whole thing, not just the juice. Plus, I thought that we make me feel fuller. But no, I was hungry after the first glass, and so I ate. But I have been drinking at least one glass of the juice a day, maybe, you know, in a week or two…or three I can go full-on juice for a week. We’ll see.

What else, what else – Oh, I’m sure you’d like to see some pictures from my recent travels, so that’ll be coming up soon, and by soon I mean who knows, but it’ll happen.

Welp, it’s 11:51pm, I better post.

Until next time.

Hello! Welcome to Shirscribe! I know my face doesn't look so welcoming in this photo, it's just that I did those braids myself and I actually like this pic. But I am really happy you're here, so come on in, have a look around, read a post or 50, comment if you'd like and come back soon!

Coming Up Next…

I’ll announce a schedule soon!

 

Thanks for reading!

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. — Psalm 46:4

Lord, let me be that river.
