The Adventures of Being Me

I go out grocery shopping. I message roommate asking if he wants anything. Candy and cereal bars. So in the middle of my shopping, I get a message how roommate and ex girlfriend had a fight (I guess her stuff is still in my house) whereas, my rommate punched a hole in my hollow basement door. I come home and inspect the damage. Fist-sized hole in my door and roommate shows the cuts on his hand. I told him the door will stay as is cause I have no money to replace it. Then he says ex told her new boy toy that rommate put a knife to her throat and he makes death threats. Roommate calls the cops on the death threats. He said he will fix my door. With no money, no job, can't pay storage unit, and has to pay resitution, How is He Going to Buy Me a New Door. He decides he likes my basement futon and set up a bedroom in the laundry room. Next day after work, I stop at my old job to chat with work friends. I need a margarita to keep from murdering my roommate. I messaged him that it may...

Well guess who is back. Ex girlfriend and the friend she screwed. They brought my roommate fast food, none for me of course. Then got to work on laundry and showers. I could hear the dryer still going at 2 AM. Then two days later they are kicked out again. Now roommate is hanging out with ex girlfriend's ex tonight.

I ordered a tent online. If roommate wants to live among the homeless cause that is where he feels among friends, then I need to let go and let him leave. He has a cold right now so not kicking him out right this second. I told him about my purchase. I said I prayed how to help him to back onto his feet. I had an Epiphany. I am being selfish not pushing him to get a job, not demanding he help around the house, and not really wanting him to leave. He leaves and I go back to being alone with 2 cats and a ferret. I finished by saying I need to let him go. He reponded by saying he could sell it and invest the profits in Bitcoin. I point out how I paid for it and he should split the profits. He din't really answer. He is not liking his friends, especially his ex girlfriend right now.

Interesting. Received a rejection email and I don't care cause I started a new job. Haha. Got paid yesterday Improving my walk times around the lake park trail. 1st time I timed I walked I did it in an hour while stopping to take photos. 2nd I timed it I did it in 50 minutes. Next time I timed it I made it in 45 minutes. It's a 2 mile walk. I was so happy I stopped by my old job bar yesterday and had a rum punch to celebrate my muscles toning. Today I took out the garbage using plastic grocery bags I keep in a cupboard. Next time I opened the cupboard, Bilbo cat was inside. Silly cat. Other things I did today were changing the sheets, doing the laundry, and grocery shopping. Ex girlfriend returned with the friend who thinks I'm attractive. Roommate said they looked like zombies. He fed them and let them sleep in his room while he slept the couch. He likes my couch better for his bad back. So I am in the kitchen when ex girlfriend gets into the shower. I thought ...

Ran an ad for Father's Day. Say Happy Father's Day with a candle or wax melt from (my company). We have fruity, woody, tropical, and musk scents. Check out my shop at (website). No sales. People seem surprised I love my new job. All I do is sit at a desk and do paperwork. Well, it's a lot better than fetching towels for guests or hearing them complain their A/C is broken. Had excitement when the visitor dog Ivory was casually laying on an ottoman beside me. My Misty cat whose been living under the sofa came out swiping with a growl and nearly hit me. I strained a muscle in my foot trying to avoid getting scrached. Ivory jumped and I placed a pillow between them. Pet both animals to calm them. No damage to the dog, poor thing. I splurged on new rainbow colored plastic plates. My old plates are scratched up and looking for new ones in the stores, I never find anything I like. I finally found some I liked and bought them right away. I didn't even care they said Pr...

I don't believe this. Roommate finally kicked out the train wreck ex girlfriend and the very next day asked me to play hostess to her and her son cause her 16-year-old son is visiting his mother for 3 weeks. He can't be around her so he will go stay in the homeless camp. And got angry when I said no. I'm not a social worker nor free hotel for his homeless friends. I replied, You just kicked her out and expect me to take her back in and take care of her son eating my food and increasing my water bill with laundry and showers. Hell to the no. He fails to understand my caring for HIM doesn't extend to everybody he knows no matter how much he cares about them. My work friend brought over some kibble for the dog. Roommate fed dog a can of tuna before she arrived. Hopefully ex girlfriend's mother takes this dog in next week. She's flaky like her daughter.

OK, now I am PO'ed. Return from night audit work and roommate left for the homeless camp. After waking up, dog in living room knocked over the gate so locked her in roommate's room with the cat after letting her out to pee. Tonight I go to change the water bowls and replenish the food. Let the dog to pee. I fed the ex girlfriend's cat the last of her food and can't find any dog food anywhere. I invaded my roommate's privacy to look for dog food. When ex girlfriend grabbed her tossed out stuff, she had brought back the dog. I gather the spilled kibble on the dog kennel floor for her and refill the water. I end up giving the dog my chicken and noodles that I had made today for myself cause there is no food for this dog. I checked online for vegetables and give a can of green beans when chicken and noodles was ate up. Dog doesn't like green beans so fed to rabbits outside. When the cat food ran out, the cat would eat my cats' kibble and canned food. I'm bro...

Ex girlfriend arrived with 2 guys. There were busy cleaning the basement for me for all the help I had given them. Yeah, sure. They left with the dog and roommate will be spending the night with them in the homeless camp. Cats get a dog free evening. Next day, roommate has a panic attack. Returned from the homeless camp to find mail for him. It is an arrest warrant cause he missed court. He asked when it arrived and I answered I grabbed it from the mailbox after he left the night before. He called his lawyer who didn't answer so left a message. He called his father who calms him down having him read the warrant to him. Eventually the lawyer calls back stating it was for someone with his first and last name, but different middle name. Court clerk sent it to the wrong address. Roommate's court date is next week. Roommate and ex girlfriend must have had a hell of a fight at the homeless camp cause he is tossing her stuff outside again. Front porch this time. He also said one...

Roommate received a phone call from girlfriend's mother asking if her daughter was living in a homeless camp. Roommate replied he doesn't know where she is when not here. Actually he told me she was living in a homeless camp to create an emergency situation to get into public housing. She is on the list for Section 8. So they had another fight and and he again says it's over between them. He did some contract work with now ex's old boyfriend and hopes to get paid soon. He says he is going to buy a tent and moving on with his life. Will see what actually happens. It's ridiculous how many times keep breaking up and getting back together. Ex Girlfriend shows up at dinnertime to take a shower, change her clothes, and do her laundry. She said she had her own tent in the homeless camp and city wants them to move because of baby owls in the area so land is protected. Next thing I know, he announced to me that she screwed his friend and he was not forgiving them. He was...

Had a short first day. The training manager called in sick so received the tour and introductions. Came home 2 hours later. But I receive a salary so hours don't matter. Going to help with night audit for 2 days. The accounting manager is in Chicago working several hotels so mostly get to know them via email and phone calls. I was offered and accepted the position of Accounting Clerk, but being introduced as the Accounting Manager. Tha would explain my salary instead of hourly wage. My 1st salary job. Next day got to work with training. A lot of reconciliation and data entry. Then get cash for people and make bank deposits. Typical accounting job. Friday night stopped at my old for a drink at the bar. Gave the new job updates. Saturday came into work to code invoices and apparently this trainer got behind on things so we are catching up. He said he will scan the invoices on Sunday since we worked 4 hours coding them. He said on Sunday he scanned the invocies for 4 hours b...

Took roommate to court and now he is saying he has resitution to pay or go to jail so trial/plea deal is done. Apparently one of his homeless friends thinks I'm attractive. I am not dating a homeless man. If that make me a snobby bitch then I am a snobby bitch. Started my new job and I am so happy to sit at a desk all day and not have to deal with complaints about the A/C not working or get towels for people. I accepted a job titled Accounting Clerk and was introduced as Accounting Manager. I get a salary so no complaints here. I hope I am worthy of the post.

My poor babies. Came inside from sunbathing to have visitor pets follow me to my room where Bilbo cat and Luthien ferret were napping. Misty is under sofa in living room. Well they jump on the bed which set off Bilbo to hiss. He jumps down to find Luthien to hiss at her. Get help removing the visitor pets out of my room. Pet Bilbo and pick up a shaking Luthien wondering what she just woke up to. All is good now. So now I have stopped looking for a new job and one less stressor off my shoulders. I reopend 1 of my webistes that has free subscription option. They charge me $16 a month for marketing fees (coupons, email messages to customers, and sale ads). I noticed some people don't like soy wax candles so gave a beeswax option too. I don't want use paraffin wax cause that's from oil and want environmentally friendly candles. There are also apricot, palm, and coconut waxes too. I also thought of opening a separate page for my candle business or maybe even a cat page since m...
