Dinner alone

So I’m treating myself to dinner. I just don’t have it in me to sit home alone right now. I would have like to grab the kids but I don’t have enough to treat all of them , plus I really have to get my head wrapped around being just me. As much as I hate it.

I have the next 2 days off and I know I’m going to suffer through them. As I said work is no real escape but it’s something. The weekend should be a handful since I have to open both days, but paperwork at least gives me something to do.

I really don’t want to job search again, especially after the summer from Hell I went through. I realize I’m battling myself with it all and it feels like I am constantly losing. Why can’t fate have a nice woman just come and sit next to me at this counter?

If that did happen, how would I be? I feel broken and worthless to people right now, but it seems the more I try not to, the worse it gets.

Now I’m wondering if I should have spent the money tonight?

Do you know how to cook that you could have the kids over for dinner once a week or every other instead of taking them out? Sloppy Joe’s and frozen french fries, or tacos, or pasta, are all easy to make, inexpensive, are teenager-friendly and can be eaten on a sofa if you don’t have table space in your apartment. Maybe use one of these days off googling recipe ideas?

@elkay Agreed: and who in the world does not love a sloppy joe?
