I encouraged RS to apply for a new job today. He’s been saying for months that he is unsure his current job is secure. He works for an HOA as a mechanic and he is afraid that when his bosses retire they will just sub out the work and get rid of the community trust that he works for. It’s a valid concern as that’s what most HOAs in this area do. He’s not a big fan of change but I convinced him that all he has to do is apply for now. IF they call him he can decide to interview or not (though I will encourage him to do that). I assured him that they may not even call him so just focus on applying right now and don’t worry about it. I’m proud of him for taking that step.

There are only five school days left! Then I have off for ten days until ESY starts on July 3. it’s only four days a week from 8:45am til 1:15pm so it’ll be easy enough.

I’m having stomach pain in my upper right abdomen and today it radiated to my mid right back. It’s just in my stomach now and it’s not severe. I did call and make a dr appt for Friday but it’s pretty pointless as I’ve been to the regular dr, the GI dr, and the ER for this pain before and no one ever finds anything. Everyone assumes gallbladder but three ultrasounds have shown nothing. I know there’s like a gallbladder emptying study they can do but no one seems to care enough to make that recommendation. So idk if I’m even going to keep that appointment.

I’m really proud of myself because I started using Noom a month ago and have been changing my lifestyle. I’m walking 4-5 times a week and I’ve been able to conquer my late night bingeing habit for the most part. I haven’t lost much weight but my blood pressure is back to normal even without the propranolol and I have been able to crack a 20 minute walking mile, down from 22. Now if I can just quit vaping nicotine I’ll really be on the road to wellness.
