A Clear Mindset

Hello friends!

A few weeks ago, I decided to bring back my blog... Obviously, this isn't a weekly thing as I have already screwed up and missed a week. But whatever! Here's a new entry!

So here's what I've been up to... My husband went to Toronto for a doctor's appointment and I had a week to myself to reflect on what I really wanted. It was nice to just lay back and relax. But, of course I missed David like crazy! He came back, and it feels amazing. My step-dad and him helped me bring my L-shaped desk to my apartment and now we all have our computers out in a corner and it looks amazing! I really love my life with David... He's made me the happiest I've been in a very long time. :)

As for work, I went to get a doctor's note on Thursday to get 10 days off, because my anxiety was through the roof. I take my job very seriously compared to most of my co-workers, which means closing duties need to be done to perfection, in my eyes. Therefore, when I start to feel overwhelmed, I put pressure on myself and then I freak out! Where does this problem start, you ask? Easy... It starts with the scheduling. They don't know how to properly staff the floor, and that leaves us usually completely stranded to do the work on our own making it ten times more stressful than it should be. They say we don't have enough staff... But they keep putting people 4-7 instead of 4-9, for example. That would help the closers SO MUCH MORE!!! Anyways, I'm going back to work on Monday, and we'll see how it goes...

On the other hand, I have school, which is going great! I'm taking a spring class about children's literature and it's amazing! I got my first project back and I got a 73% on it! I am extremely happy and I'm sure I will do amazing in this class. This is exactly what I needed to get back into the groove and focus on my education with a clear mindset.

So far, this is all that's been happening so I'll see you guys next time!

Love,
Eric

A blog reborn

After 3 years of a blog dying, a blog is reborn... Pretty cheesy right? I guess I just didn't know how to open up my blog after leaving it to die 3 years ago. Well, I'm back! Blogging is something I've always loved doing so why not jump back into it to pass the time every once in a while?

I can't promise I will be writing an entry every week, but I will try my hardest. This time, my posts will be a lot more positive than before. My life is going a hell of a lot better than it was during the time I was blogging before.

I now live in a one-bedroom apartment with my husband, David, whom I love with all my heart! (Side note: David and I met last July on Grindr and then we met up in Kap... And got married in January!) David has an apartment back in Toronto where he works, but he's currently on "vacation" to come live with me. He is a wonderful man, and has made my life a hell of a lot better!

Another person who has made my life better is my best friend, Sarah. I met her at McDonald's and we've been best friends for 2 years now. We are basically inseparable and our friendship is one that basically nobody has ever seen before! 

I still work at McDonald's, but I am a manager now. It's definitely helping the morale of having this job because quite honestly, I was getting sick and tired of it but this promotion has given me new life. Then, there's school. University is the worst decision I've ever made in my life. Can I just tell you what University is like? It's like walking on stilts, above lava that's melting your stilts, and you know you won't make it across... So yep. It's basically hell.

One thing that really pisses me off is the fact that I have no time for myself. I'm either in school, at work, or at home doing homework. I JUST WANT TO RELAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jk I'm not that mad. Okay maybe I am. Big deal.

Anywho, I don't know what else to say so I'll just end this here. I'll try to write another post soon!

Love,

Eric
