Probably why we talk so long. For some reason I really love reading texts. It has grown on me over the years. I imagine the goodness from those people being spoken. Phone calls are nice too, I can definitely get lost in a phone call but I think video calls are on another level. I feel safe talking to my therapist on video call cause she is married but I have yet to have a video call with a date. I’d be too afraid to have a video call because I’ve gained weight since January but it is slowly coming down since I have been weaning off of the medication.

My brother admires my communication but also, I’m like a big kid too, especially from renewing my mind a bunch.

I'm trying to remember the last time I talked on the phone. I mean besides something that had to do with dad's death (like the funeral home, etc.). I think the last time I talked on the phone was over 2 months ago. And video calls, that was about a decade ago. Maybe I've been hanging out with critters too long :unsure:

My mother wasn't on drugs. She left me to go live with her boyfriend who had just got out of prison. At least he wasn't on drugs either, to their credit they did stay together until the day she died. He was younger than her. He was very sad after she died. He's still alive and well...I think.

I am sorry for continuing to keep you up. I didn't mean to...or maybe I did? Either way, please forgive me! I feel I need lots of forgiveness tonight lol.

You are forgiven! I just hope she’ll just let me know what she needs worked on and I’ll just do it later. I mean if I go to sleep now I’ll probably wake up at 2pm or earlier. Probably not the healthiest but once I work on my insomnia, then I’ll probably be going to sleep earlier

Thank you for forgiving me. In my defense, I was wide awake after someone posted a pic. Seems very understandable to me.

I should let you get some sleep. It's been a blessed night and I hope you are blessed with restful sleep. Thank you for communication...

The day was a blast but near the end both of us a little grumpy. She doesn't usually socialize with anyone on Fridays cause talks to people while she is bartending Monday thru Thursday. In my mind im like how are we going to get any work done if I don't have access to the person with all the information I need to get things done as quickly as possible because I've done this so many times ad know what im doing. Her on the other hand, she is not tech savvy at all, so she is brand new to all of this. I asked her if I could get a password for one of the accounts and she didn't want to give it to me. I told her "well, I hope I can gain your trust so we can get the foundation all laid out, so in case something happens to me she can have everything automated and won't need my help anymore. and then I told her I'm not shady." and she apologized that it came off that way and she just said that she isn't tech savvy.

So there was a hiccup at the end so I called it a night and responded with that comment. We are going to go at it tomorrow though, so I may not be able to stay up tonight, even though I performed just fine today. I did tell her I was going to take a nap many times but I never did and kept working.

Taking a trip to downtown was fun though. The people at Starbucks still remember my name even though I go there like once a month lol I am super animated when I go in and I think they find me magical because of my mannerisms. I was filled with the spirit today but around 8pm, I started not being able to function.

I'm elated to hear that you had a blast today. Though, I am sorry it wasn't going as well toward the end.
I hope things come together tomorrow. I hope you will be able to get to sleep earlier tonight and I hope you'll sleep restfully.

I am sure they do find you magical, because you are. And you are doing amazing things.
I hope you'll get much needed rest so you'll be functioning optimally (and magically) tomorrow!

Thank you! I feel like my brain is half fried right now and that I'm enslaved to a job that I can freely leave at any time and it's only been basically one day. Every day is a fresh start though, so even though the brakes were stomped on tonight, hopefully God will turn that red light green.

It also doesn't help that a lot of her designs have nude images on them, of men and women. I try to just ignore them and focus on the tasks but it makes me question who i'm working for.

I'm so sorry. I'd feel uncomfortable too. You're in my thoughts and prayers. I'm hoping and praying for all the best for you. Sometimes the road feels incredibly rocky, but I hope it smooths out soon. Thank you for telling me about your day. I sure hope tomorrow is better!

Thank you. I wish I didn't weighed down but I also think it's lack of good sleep, even though I'm basically used to staying up that late but instead of being able to sleep in, she was ready early. I didn't know some bartenders start work at 7am. We didn't start that early but I think I woke up at noon, which wasn't a full 8 hours, so I think I maybe have to adjust to her sleep schedule, in order to be functioning at the best of my ability. It's not the end of the world, just a little adjustment.

I hope everything gets sorted out for you to sleep well and work optimally.
I'm not very good at being a morning person. Nights are peaceful. My heart goes out to you. I hope you can get into a sleep routine that helps a lot. Little adjustments can seem like big adjustments in the beginning, but I pray you'll get it ironed out to work for you...especially getting restful sleep!

I love my nights but there is nothing like the burst of energy I get when waking up at like 6am and getting a lot done. I tend not to complete as many tasks when I get up later. For a while there I stopped working on anything and just focused on seeking God through any Christian media I can get my hands on but I believe if we just consume and we don't serve, than the life that God wants for all of us won't be attained if remain passive. I could be dead wrong by the way, so don't quote me on that. I know grace knows no bounds and he will lead us to where we are predestined, even if there are trials.

I should bid you good night. Thank you again for responding with details of your day. I was concerned about you, therefor I couldn't help but to inquire.
I'll continue to hope and pray that your current work gets better and better, and I hope you'll get more and better rest as well.
