Its been an alright day despite being unable to avoid several very annoying individuals. Perils of being on my team.

On the other hand, a lady on a different team that sometimes barges into to the room to chat with all of us was like huh you don't wear make up? how natural of you.
I don't think she meant that as a neutral observation since she's asked about my hair in the past (always tied up out of laziness). Either way I was like nope! smiled and then ignored her to answer a call

Oh wow, why do people feel the need to always comment on others' appearances? I used to wear makeup to work a lot when I was younger but later in life I couldn't be bothered. If anyone commented on it I used to say, "Unlike SOME people, I am perfectly comfortable with how I look and don't need to hide my crippling insecurities behind paint." Also, I remember getting teased by the boys at work about my car being so old and slow and I replied, "Unlike SOME people, I am perfectly comfortable with the size of my penis and have no need to compensate in other ways" (I'm female).

Spent an hour last night working on my resume and scanned my letter of recommendation to prospective employers into my personal database.

My resume went through a few drafts, still needs tightening up in a few places, elaboration in others.

But I am advancing in life. That's a win for me. Take the little victories in stride as you go through life.

Today, my aunt from North Carolina came to see us during her job of making sure my grandparents were okay after my Gramma Barb had heart issues.

Due to the distance within time, she gave me $100. I was able to buy myself some organizational items.

I thanked her, it was a pleasure for the transaction and she even gifted money for my parents' anniversary lunch. (they have been together 39 years and they don't fight over things like prime rib for an extra $1.50, because they are "worth the prime rib".)

Turned out my uncle Chip's parents passed and left many boxes of jewelry, as his mom wanted to open a jewelry shop. The box that was first taken for appraisal was worth $7,000 alone. So things are looking up for my aunt after her kidney transplant surgery.

I'm considering buying a prefab house. It's within reach. I can probably cut the unnecessary spending and focus on getting the job of buying and installing figured out.

The one I found should resist disaster.

Then again, I was described by a AI as having as much chaos as a whirlwind the way I talk.
