I Just handed my 4 weeks notice to work in and it feels good. I don't know how the future looks but I will find a way and hopefully experience something of the journey. The mundane isn't working for me. I am thinking on a 2nd education in journalism as that's my other love but we shall see. It would be nice to write and advocate for disabled folks, maybe do some lobbying.

Just handed it in

Today I am putting my 4 weeks notice in to work. There is a lack of communication and I keep getting pulled around. I am done on the 12th to get the higher pay on the weekends. To dispel myths I am giving them more notice plus then its over and a new chapter begins. I am nervous but after all this thought I know its the right option. Its just a matter of time now, pick up shifts, get pulled and after school hopefully have a steadier career I can work my time and not need to be here constantly. I lived so tight from my last job, this one is better but it motivated me to want more from life after less then 3 months. The good news is I am off the next 2 days. Its been a challenging day to say the least so I need them, then training and then the weekend. This coming weekend is my last off weekend thankfully.

So there are rumors @ work that I am not going to az, boy are they in for a surprise. Given that I don't socialize with anyone outside of work that would come to that conclusion, I love people presume to know my life when its not open for them. But I don't care, in ten years it will make no difference. And heaven knows, something must be up that I am picking up all these hours. I used to work exactly 40 a week and scheduled only one less than that at this job. I love the residents and so forth but I must admit being part time somehow it motivated me to go back to school. I just can't imagine working the same job all these hours in the same place. Hopefully that will change.

I downloaded several gregorian chants and finished reading how to marry a millionaire vampire. It was really neat and adept my night. I definitely awoke too early @ 10 am and work was stressful today. But @ least I got my hair washed last night and got clean clothes for tomorrow and should have gas enough to getting through tomorrow. Had I drove home and back it would have been one shift and I would have had to borrow money which I don't want to do. This way I only have thursday to worry about and I haven't spent any of the change in my spare area so I should be okay. I would like to chill out for tuesday and wednesday and do some nice walks. I have also been leaving more often to get the dogs and cats used to it being this way. The cats will join me soon but I want a trailer or better setup in the van.

Final post for the day... Like I said before, this blog is saving paper and its my space. I really like how my skin feels with the no rinse body wash although I do rinse and dry. I shampooed my hair with cold water in a place nearby, wasn't a business, and boy, talk about saving water. None the less, its clean. I will go back to no poo with baking soda and vinegar when I leave as it can go through the stages. Even with poo, every 3 days seems to do the job.
I noticed even @ 3 days, its thicker and growing. I use the no rx stuff sometimes or just baking soda and sometimes a good brushing, depending. If I have been working, it gets something. Anyways, saved gas, didn't have to pay anything to stay clean and I feel better.

Someone asked me other day why outfit the van for more than sleeping, its because I want it to be home and to do that requires entertainment and I prefer more going into the back woods for a hike over dealing with traffic and nutjobs. I want the van to be home but in a spacious minimalist modern way with all valuable things to be carried in one bag should they need to be for a hike or bus trip or what not. I have access to a washer and dryer at the moment for free so I have been living on 2 outfits for 3 days and I could do longer if needed. I would say my 7 outfits I use now works well with a few tees and scrubs on the side. I do need new shoes though but for some reason I don't make it a priority because I will be in sandals or five fingers soon.
