6 Days

After laughing at my roommates who were experiencing their very first “Miami Tropical Storm” I went in and started my new job the other day.

It wasn’t difficult. I like to talk to people so I just start a conversation and then tell them about our resorts timeshare and the gifts that they can receive if they agree to listen to a presentation. My little sister and her fiance came by to help me out by listening to the presentation. I appreciate that so much. My sister is a sweetheart!

My boys came back in town on Sunday. I picked them up immediately and we rode around while I had a talk with them explaining my living situation. I tried not to sound fearful because I’m not really but I often wonder how they are processing my situation. Do they feel sad for me? Do they resent me? Do they understand how difficult it is to handle all of these responsibilities? I’m sure they have no idea that their Dad has put me on child support which makes it even more difficult to see them since all of my money goes to that..well, not yet. I haven’t had the money to pay it yet.

At night my body shakes because I haven’t had any affection in a long time.

~sigh~

I’ve been working overnight shifts at the restaurant. I like it better than the day shifts because the tips are bigger but with this new job, I’ll be working from 4pm-11pm and then from 11pm until 7am the next morning. Double shifts for a while and we’ll see what happens.

I have exactly 6 days until my hotel stay is over. After that…I have no idea what will happen.
