Oh wow, what can I say?? I have been busy, busy, busy. I have been working like crazy. Sometimes I just think that I may as well move my bed into the back office. Hell why not. I wouldn't have to pay rent then at my house which I am rarely ever more at. I feel like anymore all I do is work and sleep. I was looking through the Canton Plymouth community class book and found a crocheting class. I have until the beginning of September to sign up and pay the $63. I have tried learning on my own but just can't get it right. I am gonna try the class and it will be nice to meet some new people. I want a hobby so badly. I used to cross stitch but don't really have the time anymore. It is way too tedious and the fact that I may have to get up for a while from it can lose my place and mess it up. The only time I get out anymore is maybe once a week to play cards. I love it and love the peeps I play with, but really need something new. I am so hoping I can come up with the extra money after all of my bills are paid so I can take the class.
I have a greasy scalp to begin with and in the summer time it is alot worse. I have been trying to find something to stop my greasy scalp issue. One of the girls that works at the salon up the street from my work gave me a suggestion on what to use when I asked her what to do. When she told me the brand of the stuff I thought to myself no way that product is too expensive. I would love to stop having to shower everyday just because of the fact that my hair needs to be washed. My skin is so dry and itchy from my daily shower. I have been researching and have found a soulution to no poo that is supposed to make your scalp and hair healthier. Most of my research has led to washing your hair with baking soda and using apple cider vinegar as a conditioner. My curly hair definately needs conditioner. I think I may try it out. I am a little scared though. If I go one day without a shower I feel super icky just because of the fact that my hair feels nasty to me. I have read comments from those that have switched to no poo and some it has taken up to a month to have normal hair back again. With my schedule I need to try this even if it takes time for my hair to look ok. My hair is long enough to put up so if it is having a bad day I can hide it.
Last week I took a few days off and painted my bathroom and put in a new floor. When I moved in the entire place was painted but they never painted the bath. I assume at one time it was white but had become a yellowy creamy color, YUCK! The floor was also nasty. I asked if I could redo the bathroom and was told that I couldn't. I didn't care and did it anyways. The rest of my house looks fresh and nice but the bath was so icky and bugging the hell out of me. Now the floor and walls look wonderful. I plan on being here for quite awhile. I put about $100 into it and know I will get nothing back. My happiness is well worth it.
I really wish I was able to post more often. I even tried starting a hand written journal so I could write while I am at work. We are just so busy everyday that I have no time. I really wish that I could have a regular schedule. I will make plans knowing that I have a day off but it seems that it always changes. I know that I have a decent job but at times wish that I could have a Monday thru Friday with some vacation time. I would love for once to have an entire weekend off. Weekends are the only time that my parents and Erik have time to do anything. When I do request that time off the bosses say no. I am so frustrated with it. I just wish that they wouldn't be selfish and understand that I have a family and a life also. I know that I am just an employee. And yes it sucks that I always seem to work for family businesses. I just maybe get to see my family once a month because of our distance and schedules. My bosses that get to see their family everyday that are holding me back from mine to be with theirs I feel is extremely selfish. If only I had the guts to speak up and say how I feel. As nice as they come off to be all they really care about is themselves. I am only human and have a family and need a life also! I am sorry that I sound livid at the moment. I am just so tired of giving constanly to others and being taken advantage of . I NEED A BREAK!
