Just another day in the life

03-21-23 My back hurts

March 21, 2023


Woke before 2 am and tossed for a couple hours, even walked around the house. My guts were churning and mind was busy. Even had a crazy dream about a friend when I got back to sleep finally. When my alarm finally went off, my back was aching. It has been a while since I bowled. I had to super focus to get the day’s work done, and even nearly missed doing a payroll. That speaks volumes to the state I am in as I do it weakly and somehow didn’t realize it was Tuesday payday. I did get it done in time when I glanced at my calendar before I left office. The terrible part of today was learning that Encore was entered after we all left last night an around $30K of tools including those of the subcontractors, a milk shake machine, and the computer that runs the fancy bowling system, were stolen. Just heartbreaking for everyone involved. Only recently it has been noted that some has been recovered. Thankfully, it seemed to almost be a theft of convenience as there was no malicious damage done. With the first batch of beer brewing, it could have been so much worse. It was just so terribly deflating for those involved and my heart hurt for the friend who was to have locked up. It was locked, I hope he can let it go. Thank God for insurance and if it puts opening further along, small measure. I went from the office to get my nails done with Minh’s brother Lee as the family is away on vacation. It was fun. We had so much great conversation and he worked it out of me that I was single, let me know he was and that he thought I was fun and sweet, didn’t believe I was about to be 60 and still hoped we could go out for a drink for our birthdays next month. I would like to believe it was actual flirting as he was so straight up but it always could have been for tips. I told him I would check in next month. It would be nice to have a date with a cute guy of similar interests. Guys my age around here are… old. We had a good laugh together discussing dating in Cranbrook. I told him I thought someone peed in the dating pool and loved the way he laughed.

Went to visit mom after and she was more like her pre-move self than ever, good energy, good colour and very clear minded. She noticed I was tired, remembered to ask me pertinent things and told me about the Dr coming to visit. I think the meds are starting to work.

It was 8 before I finished making dinner but it was important as I failed to eat at all today. That will not keep me physically or mentally happy.
