Finally made it back to work today. I worked 12:30-7 and called Mills before I got there. I swept plaster from behind the baseboards, swept the driveways, putties holes in the deck, and brought baseboards to the pile of boards in the back. During my breaks, I talked to Dyanis and Sam. It was great. :)

Things are going better. I just have to stay on track.

Work was cancelled today because of rain. I swept the entire house today, including under the refrigerator and stove because it was full of dust, debris, and roaches. I got it all clean, though. Then, I started washing clothes, ate, and washed the dishes. Mills came by for a second to get something, and payed my $75 for the 2 and 1/2 days I worked. He actually payed me $80, and I gave him $5 in change. Again, what started out as a stressful, bad day is turning into something better later. I would say I got done what I needed to get done today. Maybe it's the weather, but I have been feeling down lately. Although, when Amadeo and Dawn stopped by, my mood got better and I was finally motivated to do chores like I had planned to since this morning, but previously lacked the energy, motivation, and focus to do it.

Today at work, Ben and I swept the floor on both stories, removed nails, and I stripped copper wire. Amadeo, Ben, and I put plywood down as a subfloor on the second story kitchen. At the end of the shift, Mills asked me if I could come in at 10:00am from now on instead of 11, so we can all be there at the same time to get the game plan for the day. I think I can manage that as long as I get to bed and get up one hour earlier. I will have to set my alarms.

                                                         Me all suited up for work.

                                                     The class of workers was there today.

                                                                 Me taking a break.

Today at work, I swept up all the rooms and the outside, removed sashes from windows, broke down window frames, and helped Mills put up siding. It was a great day and as usual, Mills, Ben, and I all work great as a team. :) The guy came to pick up the windows today also.

Today marks the one year anniversary of when I moved here. Yay! :) I have one year left until I have to move out of Amadeo's apartment. I am cooking now, and later I will go to the grocery store to pick up some things. After that, I may wash clothes and chat with Dyanis. Then, I will get ready for bed.
