YMCA: No

Woke up this morning with such a blah mood. I couldn't convince myself to get to the YMCA. I barely convinced myself to get up early enough to get breakfast. I don't know why I was in such a down mood this morning. I do seem to be getting used to the new time as I'm waking up at the 8am like I've been wanting to. But I just didn't want to get up. Looking it up Omega-3 foods are good for low moods. And Seafood seems to be a good source for that. I'm not sure if I'm hungry enough for Sardines. But I do like Salmon and I do have a recipe for Clam Chowder and Tuna Casserole. I'll pick up the stuff to make those tomorrow.

The first half of the day went really quiet and smooth. I even took a break just because I was bored. But the second half the swarm came in. And I took a break because I got overwhelmed. That doesn't happen very often. I'm guessing that I'm still kind of recovering from Vacation last week. Last week I was sitting at my computer for the the most part dealing with one thing at a time, but at the store I'm being screamed at from four different directions while I'm trying to help another person.

I added a handful of cheese in the Fajita soup at lunch, and I'm always glad for more cheese. And while I as at home for lunch I set up the slow cooker with a Chuck Roast.

When I was getting groceries last week I went to the big store north on the north side of town and their bookkeeper used to work at my store and she said that their Lead Supervisor had just put in his notice so there would be an opening up there for a supervisor. And the big store has a higher pay scale than our store. They do seem to have more cashiers scheduled up there than they give to our store. It's just that I don't know if I want to go to a different store to do the same job. And there is the fact that I've literally never worked anywhere else.

I'm almost done taping the helmet together. Roommate nervously asked if I had measured to make sure the opening of the helmet would fit over my head. And honestly I didn't measure that, I did measure my temples and it did fit that way. Thankfully the opening does seem to fit, it's a bit of a squeeze around the ears, but it does go on. Or at least it goes on with the tape holding it together. I'm not sure how much flex the tape gives it.  It wouldn't have gone completely to wast if it didn't fit as it would have made a great display piece. I didn't get around to printing anything else this evening. I messed around with the hand plates before work, but didn't send them to the printer.

I'm really disappointed that one of the games on my phone updated and it changed everything about how the game worked. I forgot what the game was called because I deleted it from my phone. The game was that they showed a phrase at the top of the page and there would be a list of definitions and as you filled out the definitions it would put the letters into the phrase at the top of the page. But with the update the letters you put into the words below don't go into the phrase at the top and vice versa. Or they don't until you've “Checked” them. And you “Check” the puzzle is by clicking on the thing that shows you and ad. The way it used to work is that if you were stuck on the words below you could fill out letters on the phrase and it would put letters in the words below. It will do that now, but pay micro-transactions or watch ads. I hate it when games change to, “sure you can play the 'free' game, but you'll have to watch ads and micro-transactions to do anything in the game.” There were ads if you wanted to check the words as you went along and see an ad to get hints, but now you have to watch ads to see if the words you wrote are the right words. And I get that it is a free game and they get their money through ads, but don't make it so you have to watch ads to do every single part of your game.
