Spent the last 3 days packing & cleaning and saying goodbye to all my RVA friends repeatedly. Driving north all day tomorrow, my lifestyle of living free or dying officially starts Sunday. New job starts Monday. I'm so exhausted.

Big thanks to all those who bought or took some of my items that I don't need and didn't want to move. To all those who said they wanted stuff but didn't put their money where their mouth is: you're dead to me.

Prepped everything today for the anticipated cold for the next 3 days. Probably will work on the raised beds as the coconut shaving should be here today. Get those prepped for the warmer weather Wednesday. Have several veggies ready to go in. Planning a surprise of nasturtiums for my mum. She had them at her house in Indiana before moving here and has looked for them for the last 3.5 years. Got some seeds started in egg crates to plant out in front by her windows.

Prepping for a job interview on Monday. Radio silence from 2 x panel interview company. No good news from VEC. Such is the pain of job hunting.

I was fired from my job because they lied about it being a full-time position. They said they tried posting the job as part-time but couldn't find good candidates, so they decided to pull a bait and switch and lie that it was full-time. And they said it to me like they did absolutely nothing wrong. The worst part it was the State government, and they have a one year probation period, so they had the right to fire me for any reason since I was still on probation.

I honestly don't think I will be able to recover from this. I have already started skipping my medication so that it will last longer.

Chorin mostly, hopefully along with some down time for video games. Hoping I get some feedback about a promotion I just asked for to counter the job offer I got at another company. Potential new company has the worst PTO I've seen since the aughts, so actually hoping my current company steps up.

I really wanted to love Breeze, but I will not be booking with them again. Wildly unreliable, always delayed, no WiFi on flights, just a pretty miserable experience 3 months in and what should have been 6 flights on the RIC-SFO route. What a bummer.

Not only is it console too, but it's supposed to launch with cross play. If the husband's computer is unable to play it, that's going to be our work around, me on my laptop and him on the Xbox. If my laptop doesn't cut it, I guess that means we'll finally be getting that ps5. I want to play Stray anyway.

Suspiciously good day so far. Got an early Friday and the owner of my company randomly gave me an unasked for 10% raise this morning. Very much suspect I'll get hit by a bus or struck by lightning before the day is over lol

Congratulations on getting in to see your neurologist! It only took me six months to see mine to confirm I have idiopathic peripheral neuropathy and that nothing can be done for it. Yay me. He also referred me to a rheumatologist that I can't see until November. What in the heck is up with these long lead times to see a doctor?

Working late tonight, and car shopping tomorrow. Hoping to look at a used 2011 Honda Fit for what seems like a reasonable price - I wonder if there's something wrong with it. Anyone have experience with lemonsquad or pomcar?
