Back in Brooklyn...It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be to come back home.
Honeyoye Lake was a blast. I got to go running, boating, and tubing. I got to take long, aimless walks with Linda and appreciate silence. I got to hang out with Linda's relatives her sister Jean, her niece Heidi and her husband and kids Eric, Courtney, Ryan and Zack, respectively. Normally I'm not a kids person but these kids were pretty cool and man do they have a lot of energy. I got to swim in the lake and I realized how much I missed it.
Now I'm back on the job. Everything is so hectic without Charlene here I feel like I'm blind. At least the doctor's aren't here...that would be even more pressure. I want to do things right but I know I can't put pressure on myself or I'll freeze up. I did the stuff I could do and I figured I'd wait for her to come back from the airport so she could help me with the stuff I can't do. I can't wait to be able to do stuff all my own and not be the new girl. My check was pretty paltry barely enough to cover rent. I don't know how I'm going to do it...I'll figure out a way though.
I took Benadryl last night because some asshole Chinese place thought it would be a good idea to put nuts with the shrimp dumplings and I immediately started to have a reaction. I had to pump my system with a lot of Benadryl and I'm still groggy. I feel like I slept most of the day off.
There was some roof goings on last night but I couldn't join in cuz I was so groggy and because I had to wake up for this job. Tomorrow I work 9 to 5 and then that gives me the rest of the week to search for job number 2. I think classes start too. Yay.
