I went to Aldi yesterday. I do all the food shopping for my house and in-laws. I toyed with the idea of DH doing it, but think I am going to have him continue to isolate for another month. My state governor talking about opening things up in the next couple weeks - May 4. Since DH is not very healthy and has underlying medical conditions, we will take it slow and then probably just plan on isolating again near September. I have thoughts that the virus will make a comeback in fall.
I finally told my "friend" I was resigning from the charity we started. I told her last year before I got the paperwork done, that I would just get it up and running and then focus on job prospects. Well, I have a new job (sort of) and with all the stuff she was asking me to do and all the group texts...I had enough! I just blamed it on my new job, but honestly, I was not in agreement with some of the information being shared on the charify Facebook page. Primarily, my friend is a zealous Christian and vegan. I do not feel we are qualified to tell cancer patients what they should and should not eat. Friend also comments about people not giving donations and I pointed out that some were possibly waiting for 5k (which has been canceled as of Wed) and some gave in work/filing fees - me. She remarked back that we ALL have given money or time...uh, not our working friend. The boss friend told me to assign working friend as Vice President - so "she does not have to do anything".
Boss friend pointed out that VP worked and was too busy and was not good about following through. Meanwhile I get new job - she was just asking me do this, do that, post this, share that, etc. Enough!
I feel like a weight lifted off me!
As for the job with the government agency- well I did 2 days training and did at least get paid for that. But I have done literally hours of emails and paperwork and get emails anywhere from 5:30am to 10pm and have yet to get paid for that! I finally got my laptop computer UPS to me Wed and email 6am this morning saying we will have more training - next Tues. Ugh.
Here are some nice flowers to make me happy.
I will just consider today and Monday 2 more days of freedom. But honestly, I am in work mindset, ready to get into a schedule and make a little money. I feel grateful very much because I really do worry about the country right now and think the rest of 2020 could be ugly.
Be safe and find beauty where you can!
