steno progress
my steno progress is going pretty well. went from like 4wpm to 15wpm within a few days, so i am making decent progress. i'm sure that i'll hit a plateau pretty quickly but for now it's going ok. still trying to find a way to get it ergonomic enough for me though.
i'm pretty excited bout the new job. it pays a little bit less than my old job but i think it's going to go well for me. just being able to help people all day, especially people who are having a hard time (people on food stamps, etc) is going to be more fulfilling to me than sitting in the "line drawing dungeon" all day and not having talked to anyone in two months. plus they're being flexible about e's appointments so that's good. big green flags everywhere.
i am kind of nervous bout the new job though, not gonna lie. what if i don't like it? what if they don't like me? so much anxiety. i want to try and stay here as long as i can, until i get certified for court reporting, that's my main priority.
i did get rejected from the dental position, thank god. it was going to be awkward if i had to turn it down. now it's just awkward on their end, not on my end! haha. i'm really glad i got an online position and not an in person position anyway, because we were planning on moving in a few years. it would have been stressful to know i'd have to find another job on top of a huge move like that.
ava is feeling better thankfully. we've just had her crated so she doesn't injure herself. i bought an expensive ass ramp for them to get up and down the couch, unfortunately it's just kinda required at this point because they're both getting so old and ava is a chiweenie so she's already awkwardly shaped.
so now i have all of next week to just be lazy guilt free. thing is, i'm running out of stuff to do. i've been playing the shit out of hello kitty island adventure, but i've pretty much 100%ed it by now except for a few really hard things, so not sure where to go from here. i did make my yearly doctors appointment just to get that out of the way, but other than that, not really much going on. going to try and relax.
really need to get an appointment with the new psych. the old one is super uncommunicative, and i need a refill on my meds. damn it. probably a few other things to do too, but can't really think of them for now.
