Wow, no sensitives came to bash my last entry. Maybe that’s because I added that if someone thought they may not like something someone may write in their journal, then they shouldn’t be reading other people’s journals to begin with! Yet the few replies I did get basically agreed with what I had to say. In most ways anyway.

Hit a new low of 140.4 pounds this morning, and of course that means I have to be extra hungry today. Hey, I’m entitled to a day off here and there, so French Bread pizza, here I come!

Now I’m 40 pounds overweight, instead of nearly 50. Of course, Tom disagrees, saying I’m more like 15-20 pounds overweight, especially for being middle-aged.

Tom slept over 10 hours and woke up feeling totally refreshed. Now we’re thinking he just got his schedule screwed up by taking daytime naps over the weekend. Breaking up your sleep like that can really wear you out.

The good news is that there’ll be plenty of work at work the next few days that won’t be overly physical, but that’ll ensure him full pay. The bad is that he still hasn’t gotten any job calls.

The other day I said, “Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the reason you couldn’t get out of there was that they were going to give you a huge raise, like how you tried to escape MCX in Oregon before they gave you a huge raise there?”

But this place doesn’t do huge raises. Not these cheap, greedy people! So what could be the reason God hasn’t answered my prayers job-wise other than to keep us uninsured longer? The longer I can’t go to a doctor, the more I’m in pain, another prayer has gone unanswered. I really should quit praying for what simply cannot be. After all, fate is fate. If He didn’t want me to suffer for some reason, be it to toughen me up or whatever, then I wouldn’t be suffering. The sensitive toothpaste has helped ease my tooth pain, but my ear still bothers me every now and then. What’s the point, though, for as soon as I get these things taken care of, there’ll just be something else! I’m just not allowed to live pain-free.
