Wednesday

The old lady at my work announced that she is retiring at the end of September.  No wonder my boss has been in a filthy mood.  The old lady told him yesterday, which was when his mood turned sour.  He is frustrated at shit applicants to fill my job, he’s trying to figure out what he will do when another woman goes on maternity leave in November, and now the old lady is retiring.  

Not much doing over here.  Pay day today, and I am not sure what to do with the money.  Obviously, not spend it.  I need to put some into the account that my insurance comes out of, and I need to pay the internet bill and gas bill for the apartment that came in this week.  Next week I should get an electricity bill, and then we will be paid up with our bills.  We aren’t required to pay any bills at mother’s house, but I do plan to leave money for her when I leave.  The bills are quarterly and should come in shortly after I leave.

I should send some more money to the dog exporters.  I have only paid $800 of the $2300-odd that they need. 

I have to get some serious work done this weekend on assignments.  I keep trying to predict what I will be like without M here.  I will certainly spend a couple of Saturdays at the library to get these assignments done (I have 4 due in one week, 9 days after M leaves).  I will probably stay later at work, to around 6pm.  I will not want to cook, I find it depressing cooking for one.  I will probably eat salad tubs, frozen meals, toasted sandwiches.  I will make more effort to spend time with friends, instead of being a hermit.  I might even take myself on a few walks or gym trips. 

And before I know it, it will be time for me to leave.  It will be okay.
