Trust & Appreciation

Caution:  This may be a "whiny" post but I need to get some of this out of my head.  I trusted my friend so much that I quit my job and went to work for her.  If it were only the business we were working toward, as I thought in the beginning, we'd be fine.  I had my suspicions last week, and found out yesterday that the business was also paying bills at home, catching up on rent and utilities.  

That leaves no moola left for me.  I don't have a job, and they owe me money that I need right now.  

Which brings us to the appreciation part.  The bather has his job, the groomer has her job, so I took on the responsibilities of cleaning.  Kennels, towels, floors, etc.  

I  think they will appreciate the part I played.  I hope so.   The customers will ask where I am, too.  

And another thing, they brought a dog home from her son's house.  A dog that does not like me, which is so odd.  It really bothered me that they insisted every time she growled to say, "she doesn't growl at me, she ran right up to me and Ken..."  Tell her no, tell her to be nice, to me, like you do the dogs.    

So, my plan is to work on my art, get back to creating.  Hopefully selling.  

I knew I shouldn't have gone with her, I should have waited until she got settled in...but we'd talked all Winter about opening the shop, and it was always us, so I would have felt like I didn't support her when it was time.  

With any luck I can get my job back at Twin Pines.  Sweetheart is going to talk to the guy that is running the Pro Shop about it.  I'd work for cheap, and that would be more than I've made since May.  Plus, it will give me a lot of time to kick back and stitch.  

With all that being said, I do realize that this is something she has to do with the goals she has set, and I will still support her.  We've been friends for a long time, and I have no plans of un-friending her at all.  Nor will it be weird.  I knew getting this in writing would calm me down.

I just transferred my prescriptions to the drug store across the street from the shop.  Good excuse to visit once a month, huh?  

Gonna take a week off, rest, stitch, get some yoga going, back to eating clean.   I've eaten so much bologna the last 2 months, I never want to taste it again.  Got sick from one of those little pkgs of mustard, too.
