Yoga with Debbie, Lunds with Kaitlyn and fries with ají criollo


March 8, 2023: Well to start with so much happened today. The first thing I wrote was won’t type at all til the end of the day. I did that. Well for my breakfast I had a low fat yogurt and two eggs, not scrambled. I also printed out the gym list from Will that I’d lost the other day. I also walked a little bit. When I got to the JCC I did the yoga class with Debbie again. She remembered my name too. Will also gave me the workout sheet with some notes on it that I thought I’d lost. I even told him that I had reprinted it. Wrote down that getting that was a big success. After yoga I did Will’s “workout 1” not the new “workout 2,” then I had time to go in the hot tub for a bit. I tried on my new swimsuit top for Florida and texted Hannah a photo too. When I was leaving I also told Hannah the receptionist that I had asked where she was when I came in, and she told me to drive safe. I succeeded at that. When I got home I texted Papa that I was ready for Lunds and took my 12pm Ritalin. Then I went into Lunds. I clocked in at 1:01 today. Tragically I left my coffee in the car and I also locked my ID in the break room, which Ben let me into. Once I had my ID I also ran back to my car to grab my coffee. That also got me 7002, which isn’t quite even but kinda close. Today Abby also said that I had taken a photo with her before, which I found then. Today Isaac and Ben were managing, and later Lisette came in too. I also wrote down some random shit that we do, like Kaitlyn said that we put soups in the smaller white plastic bags, twist tie the top, and put a rubber band on it. Ben also told me to fill the front with about 10 baskets, 6 big carts and 6 little carts. I also told Kaitlyn that I took a photo with Ken earlier and I told her about this project. She said that she thought it was really cool. So I took a photo with her later too after we were done at 5. Also wrote down, “today I was thinking all day about how idk if I’m happy, and that means I’m happy.” Setting the alarm for when to go on break was super useful today. On break I talked to a guy named Brett, who has been with the company for four years and at Nokomis since December. I didn’t take a photo with him though. Also setting the alarm for the break was very useful. After break I bagged for Nora, who was new and on her like second or third shift. I was also randomly tipped 2$ cash by one of the customers. I managed to not lose this one. Also learned that you enter the 5¢ bag fee after you ring up the customers. // next day // I also actually did ask Abby if you could make friends there and she said that you absolutely can. I just told her that my first few days were shadowing someone way older than me so I was feeling like I couldn’t. What I did after Lunds was I went home and had my Turalio safe dinner, which was a Korean beef power bowl with 10g of fat. Well mom also called me and reminded me to make sure I had Larisa’s phone number for the photo shoot. I did also tell her that I had a really good day. She reminded me to have a low fat yogurt with the power bowl too. I also find Any.Do insanely useful and I even put it on there to write down my completed tasks for yesterday. Well the play I shot yesterday was Eurydice, and the director was Sophie and other photographer Ellie, who shoots with Nikon. I also had some random questions about the show, like “is everyone dead,” and “what’s up with the living stones.” Randomly at the end of the show going through my purse I found my Lunds ID card that I thought I’d lost. Walking back to my car I also told Ellie about the TBI and it happening on October 23, 2021. I also told her that being able to drive there alone was huge for me. She also told me that she was shooting with a 35mm and 70-200, whereas I was shooting with a 70-200 and 24-70. What I did when I went home I didn’t even write down, but I had leftover fries from Burger King with ají criollo sauce and they were amazing, since it was well over two hours after my meds. Well as far as photos I have the one I took with the yoga instructor and the one I took with Kaitlyn at work and my BeReal, which I was two hours late for because of the show.
