Good Morning all! Well, my super enthusiastic start to the week ended with a thud by about 9am yesterday. I spent hours and hours researching jobs to apply to and I was extremely disappointed by what was out there. I also had some frustrations with customers who were asking for the world, then ghosting me. But I think I was just overtired. I got a decent night's sleep and I feel less crabby already today :)

The weather around here has just been nuts. I think yesterday afternoon was about the hardest rain I have ever seen come down! The town next door to where I grew up got 10" of rain at once, and is completely flooded. The street I grew up on (down the road a few miles) is completely washed out. The pavement totally buckled and the road is destroyed. There is another huge storm about the same size coming through tomorrow, and then we get the remnants of Hurricane Lee over the weekend. Yikes! We'll be fine where we are, but I can't imagine how that area that's already flooded is going to manage!

QOTD: Do you typically dream? I am definitely an active dreamer. I remember at least something about my dreams most days!

Accountability: Solid meh. I got a groceries yesterday and switched a few things up, which were good choices, but I also snacked too much in the evening.

Good morning and happy Tuesday! Sorry your day was frustrating, you're only a week in though and I"m sure it will take some time. I know looking for a job should be treated like an actual job, but maybe be sure to set some reasonable boundaries for yourself in terms of the daily structure?

QOTD - very rarely

Busy day today, need to workout this morning and then this afternoon I have my trainer, trying to decide if I take something (retirement gift for a colleague) with me in my suitcase on my work travel (which will mean checking my luggage) or if I mail it ahead to a different colleague. If I send it, I need to do that today. Otherwise, just a normal busy Tuesday.

menu today

coffee plus half and half X2

left over cheese burger

pita with tzatziki and pepper feta dip

probably something else but not sure what

Have a terrific Tuesday all!

When I traveled all the time, I made it a habit to ship ahead whenever possible. Dealing with extra space in luggage and checking bags was extra hassle to me then. Now it would be harder because I am older and weaker.

Good morning all. More whacky weather, around the world. Time to start working on that ark. We'll have to call it early quantum state phenomenon. Only way to fit 5000 species of mammal on the same boat.

QOTD: I never remember dreaming. Not once. I'd probably be terrified if I did.

I have a roast I need to cook today. I'm going to try it in the Instant Pot.

Here are the boxes I bent a week ago, now with tops and bottoms fitted. Now I have to peg them, sand, and finish.

Those are stunning. It's amazing how you bend the wood into those shapes. Does QJB manage your social media? You would have thousands of followers.

He always has more likes and comments on his instagram posts than I ever get. Probably because he is insanely talented!
