One Woman Show: Update 22

Every time something breaks down in the house I think about moving.
But then I look around at the memories I've made here and think this is my home, and I remain.

I still keep busy with working out as well as seeing if I can develop a green thumb.

Not to mention I'm getting pretty decent at this computer thing.

I do go out and interact with others. As much as I hate the idea of getting close to people only to lose them, I also can't live life as some sort of hermit for the rest of this challenge.

Woodworking/inventing. Part of the new goal in life. Considering how much stuff breaks, my handiness is pretty high so hopefully this will be a breeze.

Not bad for a first try.

Debra stopped by to talk about how both her sons got eloped without giving her any notice. I kept to myself the gentle reminder of how she came into the family the very same way. It's just how it works in this world.

And in a bigger issue, she told me that Rodgiro had gotten a woman, not his wife, pregnant.

 
We have been spending more time together. With the twins busy adults, and Hayes gone, we are a connection to all that we've lost.

Things at work were stressful for a while. My team weren't on the same level of dedication as I was and that unfortunately put us behind.

I hated to give that report to the investors, but in the end they were disappointed and understood.

My bosses were pleased and I earned a promotion. No more team projects for me.

After my latest promotion, one of my co-workers surprised me by asking me out to celebrate. I'm not looking for another relationship anytime soon, but I do have the urge for companionship from time to time.

We had a nice enough time. The food was great, the company...he talked about himself a lot, but it wasn't the worst. Though I'm not certain I'd want a second date.

**Anahi has maxed out another skill.

And she's moving right along with this new aspiration.
