Last night I was reminded again that I haven't updated my blog lately. That statement was followed by that person saying, and I can just imagine what it would look like if you did. Meaning that I just haven't been quite myself lately.
Things at work continue to be a struggle and I find it weighing on me every time I go there. In addition to my ever changing schedule, I find it difficult to navigate the continual lack of structure. We all have to find our way through the chaos from time to time, and I'm willing to work through my share, however in my current work environment chaos reigns supreme and I feel like I'm constantly walking on egg shells.
Thankfully the past few days I have had some normalcy. I worked a 7-3 shift on Thursday and was off on Friday so Jak and I were able to go for our evening walks on the beach. One of the nights we ended up walking with a couple that have two dogs. Though we often see them there, this was the first time we were all going in the same direction at the same time. They are nice people and I enjoyed having the company. It also made me realize that my crazy schedule puts limits on the amount of social contact I get outside of work. So, I'm applying for other jobs, looking into perhaps transferring to another store and really just trying to be clearer with myself about what I need from a job to at least feel human.
It's hard to believe Memorial Day weekend is already upon us. The beaches here will be busy this weekend with highs in the 90's predicted. (I have the front door open for Jak as I write this but that won't last long.) Here are some pictures I took earlier this week. I think they will be the preferred modes of transportation around here this weekend. I had to take the second picture three times in order to get the Jolly Roger flag flying.
Peace & Love,
Hope
