Hurricane Ida is pounding hard tonight. My daughter is asleep upstairs, how she's sleeping through it is my guess, lol, but I'm sitting downstairs watching out the window as the rain and winds twists and twirls things around.

Watched a couple of trees fall. Watched siding from my apartment building as well as other apartment buildings peel away and take flight in the wind. Watched a large aluminum piece flip, twist and turn and bang against the back of my truck, rise back up into the air and...

  I'm so bored right now😒...

   Sat upstairs for a while, my bedroom window was shit to look out of. Couldn't see anything, but I laid on the floor for a while listening to the wind and rain and whatever debris that hit against things.

   My daughter is chillin in her room, her usual spot sleeping off and on.

   Decided to come back downstairs as the hardwood floor was making my ass and back hurt, lol.

   Wind is getting stronger and stronger and the powers been out for a while. Signal on my p...

  Sitting here listening to the rain. It's the approach of hurricane Ida coming ashore. The sky is gray and the day is full and I'm feeling just like the weather...

   Didn't sleep well, nothing new of course. Headache is still bugging me, I wish it would go away already 😑.

   I don't think the storm is gonna be as bad as predicted, but who knows, you never really know with storms, but I'm not afraid of them. Just ride with them, whatever happens, happens.

   I can hear the winds picking up, ...

  Today's been an ok day. Wasn't much fun getting out, lots of people out, gas stations had lines of people waiting to pump  gas and Walmart was crowded as usual. 

   Saw the weather and they're saying there's a Cat 4 hurricane supposed to hit Sunday. That's a pretty bad storm. Hopefully it moves fast...

   Bored at the moment, but don't really have the energy to do anything and still have a nagging headache. Part of me wants to go chill at the park, the other part of me is too lazy to drive, l...

  At times I wish I could shut my mind off. It constantly runs on thoughts throughout the night, sometimes just random dumb things, sometimes just to do things, then life things, etc...

   Last night it felt like my mind was on full speed, more than it's hamster wheel, more like two squirrels fighting over an acorn and I kept tossing and turning, getting up, walking outside for some night air, scrolling my phone, tossing and turning until finally I fell asleep into some very unpleasant dreams....

  Mmm, coffee ☕... Gotta have the coffee in the morning.

   Past couple of days have been good. Yesterday was really good 🥰.

   Sitting in my thoughts this morning before work enjoying a cup of coffee. I'm scheduled for the area I loathe, 😩, but hopefully I can get put somewhere else and if not, either way it be a good day and the day will go by fast.

   Only got a couple hours of sleep. Couldn't sleep and had a couple of nightmares. Just wasn't a peaceful night's sleep. And waking up to...

  Sun is up, definitely looking hot af out, but it's mid August, so it's expected.

   I slept good last night, of course cuddled up next to the comfort of my love 🥰 and waking up to him is always wonderful and makes my mornings wonderful.

   Those Folgers commercials are wrong, although coffee is one of the best parts of waking up, a good cup of coffee, mmm, nah, for me, the best part of waking up is next to my love 🥰, seeing his smile and a good morning kiss 🥰🥰🥰, melts me.

   Chi...

  Today's going good other than my anxiety is up. Been shaky for the past hour. Probably caused from the past week caught up to me.

   Finally got some sleep last night and this morning. Felt so good falling asleep cuddled up next to my love 🥰. Especially after a rough afternoon and evening at work.

Got stuck in an area I loathe after lunch, dealt with some assholes then some other issues at work and to finalize my evening get told I didn't get the position I was hoping for 😒. It just all...

  Was up all night last night, but got a little over an hour of sleep this morning, so better than nothing, but no doubt I'm gonna be pushing through my shift today. I hate closing shifts, they always feel longer than morning shifts.

   Looking forward to my day off tomorrow, it's been a long week and the exhaustion has caught up to me. I'm just not in the mood for customers, but I'm determined to make this a good day.

   No matter if the day before was shitty, I still like to wake with the min...

  The evening isn't going that bad, work has been busy, but not bad. Had a few asshole customers, but you get those. Had a few customers that cracked me up, so enjoyed that.

   Looking forward to tonight, finally going to get to cuddle up to my love. I've missed him so much and I could use his comfort and his smile. To feel I can breathe and relax and feel at ease and I always do with him.

   Sitting outside for my break like I always do, juul life, just staring at these piles of cat food, old ...

  Today hasn't been going any better than yesterday. Sucks ass. I'm just tired, stressed, aggravated.

   I wish I could take the day off. I've been shaky today and just trying to breathe and hoping I don't have an anxiety attack. Trying not to think about it. 

   I can't afford to miss any work, lose any hours, so I'm not, just gonna have to deal with it the best I can and get through today.

   I hate closing...

   Too bad I couldn't be put somewhere where I didn't have to deal with customers for...

  Yesterday was a good day. It's back to work today. Tired though, didn't get any sleep at all last night, so hopefully the day will go fast and there won't be any stressful people to deal with cuz I'm just not up for it, especially when I'm supposed to be scheduled at.

   My friend's still down visiting which has been cool. I've enjoyed her company and we've had some good laughs.

   She knocked out fast asleep from being up most of the night, lol. Kinda wish I could go to sleep right now, but ...

  Today's been a pretty good day. My good friend came down last night and is staying for a few days which is pretty cool.

   We pretty much been going all day which I enjoyed getting out of my apartment for a while and enjoying company and not being bored out of my mind, lol.

   She cooked me a couple homemade meals. Last night red beans and rice and tonight a shrimp pasta with lots of cheese. Both were pretty tasty and I always enjoy a good home cooked meal. You feel the love when someone cook...

  Today was boring as fuck, but good I guess. Wrote some, then went through some things and found some old pics I didn't realize I had.

Then goofed off with the cats with a fart machine which was silly but I got a bit of a laugh out of it.

Posted it to my Instagram @BoogyVamp & my TikTok @DandelionInTheWind1 if you're curious to see.

   I've kinda been thinking about something, not really gonna say what it is, but have you ever got the feeling about something and you're like, hmm, I'm starting t...

  Today was busy, but good. I like it when it's busy, not overly busy, but busy enough that it makes the work day go by faster.

   I got to see my good friend yesterday, only for a few minutes as she came to see me at work and gave me a huge hug. I was really happy to see her. Sucks I couldn't of been off work to of gotten to chill with her while she was down visiting the couple of days, but hopefully next time.

   I'm off the next few days, not sure what I'm doing yet, guess I'll see as the da...

  Today's been an ok day so far. Boring mostly, but ok.

   Not really anything to do. Hotspot is being a dick, so can't really watch anything at the moment and I'm bored with the games on my phone as well as social media apps and TikTok just buffers.

   Did get a call from a good friend of mine, the one who moved to Mississippi. She's doing good and it was good hearing from her. I miss chillin with her in person.

  Got some info about the position I applied for at work, that it might be going to...

  Today was a stressful work day, not a great day, but it went by fast, so that was a plus.

   Sat outside for a little while waiting for my daughter to pick me up from work and watched a coworker who loves to feed this stray cat that hangs around. The cat always stares at me from a distance when I work evenings, always on edge for when I make a sudden move, it zips away, lol, but as soon as my coworker pulls up and the cat hears her car, she perks right up ready for food.

   I don't think I'd ...

  Today was a good day. Worked inside 1st half of the day then outside the 2nd half.

   Only dealt with a couple of assholes, but hey, comes with the job and I've dealt with worse people, so good day overall, no complaints.

   Evening is going ok. Bored, tired of smelling cat farts at the moment 😐 and it's like babysitting 2 toddlers that keeps trying to get to the hamster cage as well as the window shade while my daughter's gone.

   Kinda starting to feel meh, just bored as fuck and tired of...

  Today was a good day, went by pretty fast which was good cuz meant work went by fast.

   Was a good day as didn't have to deal with any assholes, so that was nice and after my lunch I got to enjoy working an area I like better, so good day.

   My evening is going ok, except for the rowdy neighbors. I swear it sounds like King Kong chasing a herd of antelope up and down their stairs at times and this drilling noise I hear every now and then has me questioning what the hell they're drilling at....
