Good to hear about your day. It seems like in some jobs there is always someone that wants to one up you. Sometime it,s jealousy. I worked for a Engineering firm, Corporate office and one co worker was so jealous, she spread bad rumors about me. I had learned to document every day on the job. One year later, I sued the company and won a settlement. I think she had something on one of the bigwigs . Everyone feared this woman, and no one would help me, so I sued. We went to trial and my documentation and other proof, plus my excellent evaluatios won my case. Funny, no one stuck up for me, but after the case, two women who worked in same office, called me at home to help them get an attorney and wanted to know how and what to do. I politely said, Figure it out and hung up.
Most of my,,jobs I loved. I worked well with men for some reason. Being a single Mon with three babies in the 60,s it was not easy.
I would love to work today a couple days a week with the public, because, I'm a people person, but though I,m told I don,t look it, i'm 86. I have the energy and I feel older people can do better customer service jobs.
Your recipes sound good. Love pizza. I never liked Turkey,, but loved The Honey baked ham.
I know what you mean about desserts. I hate store bought marshmallows. My sister makes her own and to die for. OMG , I couldn,t stop eating them. She sent me a lot along with her home made hot chocolate.
Come the holidays, I get her care packages and so look forward to them. Oh,, her rum pecans yum.
You could bake deserts, freeze some, take some to work, or make little pkg. for neighbors. Great ice breaker to meet people. Plus if you love to bake, it's good therapy and. you have fond memories of your parents.
During the winter, I make lots of soups. Ministroni. I can,t spell it, but I can make a good one. Split pea soup. Melanie loves it. Chicken soup. She also loves it. I make a big. Pot and eat it for a couple of days. Give some to my Gen Z neighbor, which she loves. Then I freeze some. I find cooking is great therapy.
Talking about dreaming. I,m lucky to sleep a few hours. I Fall asleep at 9on the couch, watching TV, wake up around one, then lay there watching a movie on my ipad.until 3. I don,t take. naps during the day. I haven,t had a dream in quite awhile.. Melanie sleeps on the couch with me, then she cuddles in bed next to me. She is not a big dog. She is a mini poo. White with a pink nose. Kids will stop me when walking her. and they say,"I like your dog;".
Have a good week, and do something good for yourself on the extra day for the weekend. Are there shops you like to explore? Maybe a movie?
I use to wait for someone to do something together, and when there was no one, I learned to do by myself. I was in my 60,s and 70,s. It's harder now and covid changed a lot of things, but don,t close off , you are still young. You can not meet people if you close down. Sometime we have to push ourselves. I know, I was scared when I ventured out by myself, but got so used to it, I felt proud I could and it wasn,t scary anymore. I took tour bus trips and always met someone on the bus to talk. I just feel for you being down. Hugs 😍
