Sunday’s Chat on a Monday — Feeling Sick, HS reunion & getting comfortable at the new work
Good morning!
This comes to you a day late, ironically because of the exact thing I talked about in yesterday’s post.. related to some of my scheduling problems of not wanting too much of non-bookish posts too close together 😅
* This is my version of the meme “Sunday’s Post” going around the blogosphere (without the this week’s/next week’s posts) hosted by @Caffeinated Reviewer.

Last time that I spoke with y’all, I mentionned how leaving a job was scary; would you believe that it’s now been a full 4 weeks that i’ve been there now?! On my first day there, though I knew I could very much see myself working in that job, I was quite literally shaking so much that I couldn’t even type properly!! Which prooved to be difficult as I set my password for the programs to be super long too 😅
Getting home the first few days, I was amazed at how calm & collected I felt. So much different to being a barista, where i’d come home very angry most days.. bothered by either the staff not doing their job, or just super rude customers. To me delight, all the leftover anxieties vanished along with it; my hands & arms stopped itching completely from the moment I’ve told my former boss I was leaving — confirming what I knew was an anxiety response.
I’ve been told several times by other staff & our remote manager how well I was doing, and being very much above average. Ofcourse I still have things to learn regarding the marchandise, which is normal, but I was told not to worry as it will come to me with time and also doing the online trainings. Overall, i’m really happy with my decision; though I was scared. I love everything that i’m learning so far, saved SO MUCH for my own dogs aswell as getting the knowledge to get them better products.. and I just feel so happier generally 💕 😌 The team is super nice too, and i’ve gotten comfortable with them mostly after only a few hours spent with them.
I’m still psyched that I got reached for our 10years HS reunion this summer; I did graduated in 2012, so it does ends up mathematically but imean- HOW?! time past so fast! That also means that it’s been 8yrs since I’ve graduated college in my accounting diploma; which we all know I ended up not using 😅 thanks, anxiety..
I’m not sure yet if I will attend, because imean- though iknow people change and they aren’t the same as their 17yo self hopefully!, I’m not speaking to anybody that i’ve graduated with. I’ve long lost touch with my only friends that I had back in the day so for what it’s worth ..
I spent the first 8years of school back home (but hasn’t seen that gang since we were 12), VS the 4years of HS in this town; I never really felt like I belonged anywhere? It’s been so long since the people i’ve grown up with saw me, that they probably don’t even recognize me. While the people I graduated with only saw me for the short period of high school.. and being the quiet kid in her corner, I doubt much people remember me either.
After 2yrs of being careful and scared of the pandemic.. We finally got Covid within our household 🥲 While Me & Mother had been super careful & kept our mask on, dad chosed to not wear it and.. well, both my parents tested positive for it last Sunday.
Dad has it the worst, as he was already struggling with coughing fits and his asthma and all that; at first he was so sure it was the same “cold” he was getting after every spring at temperature change that he fought against the quick testing.. but sure enough it was covid 😆 We were so scared for mother, but thanksfully hers is more mild; she has more of a fatigue, slight side pains and throat/head hurting. It’s a good thing she had her 4 shots.
I’m somehow still negative.. Though on Monday I choosed to miss work preventively as my throat started hurting and I was losing my voice; I sure didn’t wanted to create a covid outbreak again (as 3 already had gotten it two weeks ago) and it didn’t felt safe as I would need to drink lots of fluids and although I could’ve kept a mask on & sanitize my hand often.. it just wouldn’t had done it.
Finally I tested positive too on Tuesday, my symptoms differents but still mild: Head & throat hurting, aswell as the lost of my voice, and I had wierd stomach spasms with muscle pain behind my thighs. We no longer need to isolate, though thankfully our job are thorough with it and we are both off work until Monday (April 18th) — With 3 days I had trouble onto what to do, 5days will be a pain.. especially how I can’t really sleep either 🙃 Opposed to when I had H1N1 and I spent my time sleeping
How are y’all?
What are you been obsessing over lately?
