thepnutgallery | Heading Back Up (Reply)

Woke up a little before my 6:45 alarm, but I laid down again and then woke up just before I had to clock in. Good thing I'm not on site on Tuesdays anymore, though if I was, I probably wouldn't have closed my eyes again to begin with. Julian was still sleeping, so after I got settled in to work, I fed the kids and made up lost time for yesterday. Sent an email to Shawn to apologize for not getting the draft to him, but explained without going into too much detail that while extremely grateful for this opportunity, I don't know that I can give it, and these animals, the time and effort they deserve right now. Then called USAA about the accident. They sent the finalized accident report, and I guess based on the two accounts, believed the other guy, that he was driving normally and Julian hit him. State Farm is asking for almost twice my policy limits, so I signed the form letting them disclose the limits. It'll suck if they go after me for this, but I'll live. I've been through worse. Shawn called me a little later, and hadn't seen the email, just wanted to check on the draft. I didn't mention narrowly avoiding felony charges, but did tell him about the pending divorce and this new development.

Julian spent he day trying to get locked in to that place in La Mesa. They wanted $1475, but since they had so much trouble getting someone for the past several months, were willing to lower it to $`1300. Score! He had to get pay stubs, and despite berating his boss, managed to get them and get the application in. Julian had to run to the store to get cat food, so I went with him. I wanted to grab decaf instant, and picked up a couple extra sauces while I was there. Some peanut sauces and a kung pao sauce. I hesitated, but did end up buying the vegan cream cheese frosting. I could keep fighting it, but if I can actually allay the craving with a 1-200 calorie snack, that'd be better. I had a slice of bread with a thin spread of frosting, and it worked perfectly.
