Okay so this job just went from intense to insane in a matter of days. I’m working 14 days straight, and now I’m on a new assignment. The foreman is “loaning “me to another boss, and rather than working the ship’s engine room, I’m painting a huge open space of a new ship - a mod - that’s housed inside a 60 foot hanger. I fold up my body to paint tiny pockets and I climb on top 20 foot catwalks to balance on cribbing beams and paint the ceiling. ...and walls, and floors.. painting everything. And I’m exhilarated! I’m seeing my edge coming through: I don’t drink or smoke, and I have stamina. One year ago I wouldn’t have!!!!! I’m pushing myself, and everything I have is going into this job. I’m so physically exhausted and at the same time so emotionally happy I actually have a second wind when I get home. When I was in nursing I rarely had any joy or energy for my family at the end of the day. What a difference. I feel on top of the world tonight.
The hubby and I went grocery shopping, got corn on the cob, fresh Jazz apples, sunflower seeds, fresh kale (for kale chips) and mixed herb salad....all for tomorrow. We went just for something to do. We love people watching. And since we’re both at work 90% of our awake hours of our day, it’s important to spend those moments together when we can. Yesterday it was suntanning in the yard together. It’s tough because we say good night so early- my husband went to bed at 8, he is getting up at 2. I’m watching the Bachelorette with my cat and journaling, digesting my silly dinner. Silly because I had ice cream for dinner.... 2 pints. It only totaled 600 calories, and it was delicious. I was just too tired to cook anything and I’m like, Go for it.
Mmm
