Still hanging in there...

Tight on money as usual, working my butt off but upright, mobile and conscious as I tell people.
My hair is almost long enough to cover my scalp but not quite. Another couple of weeks and I might be able to go out in public without a bandana on. Though the weather is cooling so I might need it for another few weeks more than that.
Went to the doctor and didn't have any complaints. Blood pressure was good, but I gained five pounds since my last check in three months ago.  Need to cut back on the sodas I think, been having more of those than I should of course.

Work has been busy, feet are still sore by the end of the day but that's the way it was before I was off for three months. Need new shoes and socks I'm sure, but that will have to be put off for a while as all my money has to go to rent. Sounds familiar listening to Devon talk. He's still looking for a job  as well as my roommate, if a miracle doesn't happen soon I'm going to lose her as she will have to live with relatives that won't be hounding her for rent and she can get back on her feet.  Don't know how, but she's also considering getting back to school, at least that she could get some money to help with living expenses. (Grants and funding type)
I have started to make bead netted ornaments to sell as I've said. The first one is up on my artfire page as well as two bracelets I made. The ornaments are relatively fast as long as the pattern works for the size ornament I have. I posted on facebook that I need ten people to buy a $50 item each or fifty people to buy items at $10. Either way I still need to sell more jewelry to supplement my income sufficiently to make rent.
Anyone looking for something specific? Certain style that I don't have? Let me know, I'll see what I can do.
Anyway....
need to get off here and get ready for work.

I feel like that sometimes at work with stupid people.
