Makin moves

Never let it be said that I don't know how to McGuyver the fuck out of a paycheck.
I needed Xmas presents, pants, shoes, and other things this check and even though I got my bonus it was going to be a very tight thing. I cashed out one of my receipt apps and got a pair of pants from Amazon, wrangled up enough quarters to get my shoes, and figured out how to order my Granny's picture book. I might have to do some last minute scrambling on Xmas Day, but I did what I had to do. Woke up early enough to wash bedsheets, went to Walmart and got shoes and comforter and Riley's present, then came home to drop things off, buy Dad's gift, and then came to work.
Grocery shopping tonight and running errands tomorrow. I slept wrong and woke up with a wicked crick in my neck. I really want some more croissants from Trader Joes but don't really feel like driving all the way out to Metairie so I guess I don't want them that much.
Still no word from my new boss as to how and where I'm going to begin this job. Hope says my last day here is next Friday so if I haven't heard anything by next week I'm gonna email them. I can't get out of here fast enough. Starting to feel the first bubbles of anxiety about it but my heart tells me I'm doing the right thing. I don't have very many moments when I know those things for sure, but just like I knew moving out was the next step, I know what I'm going now is where I'm supposed to be. If I could survive Diagnostics with Shelita and Adrina and fighting everyone else to make quota, if I could get past everything I've been through here, I can damn sure handle working from home and requesting things on the Internet. I hope.
ready to go home
