Scream.

Spent $700 yesterday having my damn water heater serviced. Water was only coming out at around 90 degrees. When he was done, it was back to 136.5. Took my first HOT shower in months this morning. We originally thought it was just because it had been so cold outside that it was struggling to heat up. Nope. Just needed to be flushed and descaled. The upside is that price included the pump and cables to do it in the future. Which means I can learn how to do it myself next year. It really should be done annually. C had doc appointment and everything went well for her. We took dog on two walks again. I am still struggling to connect with this place that wants an interview. Their software isn't sending out meeting invites correctly and the HR person seems clueless on how to work around it. Maybe something will come of that today.

I just noticed I messed up yesterday's title. Whatever.

Mild scream today. Up early because water heater people coming between 8 and 12. Went on another walk yesterday. Very nice. Didn't feel good in the tummy so made soup and grilled cheese for dinner. Otherwise, quiet day.

Head screaming and clocks changed. HATE today. It's "7:30" but it's pitch black outside and I did not get renough sleep. 

Had hair appointment, stopped at the store, scheduled a service for our water tank, did laundry, took dog for TWO walks, made bento boxes for dinner, played games, watched a movie. Good filled day.

It back.

Went to lunch with friend yesterday. Was nice. It rained on and off during the day then stormed like crazy last night. Fough the dog to go outside because for some reason she is a princess who hates being wet. Okay. Made pasta for dinner. Started new show. Played games. Went to bed.

Still silent. Go me.

More importantly, I got an interview!! Working on the when but the win here is that my new resume is working and getting me into people's hands. I applied Wednesday, got an email requesting an interview yesterday. It's not really what I want sadly. It's another consulting company. But if it pays the bills while I find something else, then great. I know the skills are a fit, but not sure about culture. I will go to the interview, see what they have to say. But my hopes are low. Regardless, I got an interview and that's the win.

C got home very late last night but I still made a pork tenderloin, we finished a show, and we played games. Productive yet short evening together.

Having lunch with a friend today and hair appointment tomorrow.

Blessed silence. I had to force myself to stay up until midnight and slept for 7 hours but it did the trick.

Applied to more jobs, watched TV, posted on linkedin, got my unemployment, went to the grocery store.

We received Merlot's urn yesterday. It's very beautiful. Fitting memorial for the baby. 

That was weird. My whole window closed. Whatever. Thankfully it saved a draft. Anyway. 

Same shit different day. No interviews, two rejections. Just got to hold on.

Still the same on all fronts.

We did get something nice yesterday. Chewy sent us flowers for Merlot. Very sweet and unexpected. Customer service at its best.

Tried a new burger place. It was really good. Made chicken sandwiches for dinner. Watched some tv.

Nothing going on. Another week, no interviews. Time to apply to more jobs. It was cold as hell again yesterday. Currently 15 outside. Getting real tired of this weather. Time change next week. That will be annoying. We played games yesterday. Hung out. Played with dog. Watched TV. Tried some new shows. A quiet weekend day. Now it's back to trying to find a job.

Still screaming. Welcome to March.

They dropped off Merlot yesterday. Of course when C got home and saw it she lost her shit. That was fun. We had pizza. Watched the end of Fallout. Let's see where this is going in season 3. Which will be in 2027 assuming we're all still here.

Cleaned the house. Like deep cleaned. Nothing else going on.
