It’s been a busy week, but I’m getting through it. There have been some good things and unfortunately one setback. The setback is I’m not able to get my driver’s license reinstated for another year. Apparently in Wisconsin if you get two OWI offenses within a year, your license is revoked for a year even…
Its been crazy busy the last few days so that is why I haven’t posted anything new. I’ve been working to get my occupational license with the DMV, which required me to attend a bunch of meetings. That on top of work, meeting with my PO and AA meetings hasn’t left much time to do…
I hope everyone had a great 4th of July! My day was pretty chill and I ended up working from 4-close at the restaurant. Today I work again at 4pm and this will complete my first full work week at my job. It feels good to be a functioning contributor to society again, but I…
Hello everyone! My day is pretty busy today. I have a court hearing at 11am for my outstanding OWI charge. Its via Zoom and my attorney is going to request that it be put out to allow him to review the discovery materials and work with the DA on a potential resolution. So, it should…
Today’s been an ok day for a Monday. This morning I had a call with my therapist to setup a treatment plan going forward. The treatment plan will be used for my drivers safety plan as well so I can get my occupational license. We decided one session per week in a men’s group would…
Happy Sunday! The weather outside this morning is very nice and calm. I was outside having a smoke and a cat came up to visit me. He/she was a little skittish, but hopefully over time we will become friends. I really miss my dog Macy (border collie). When I was working from home, we would…
Today I’ve been working on some other items as I have the day off from work. I’ve been working on a website for the past few weeks and its getting close to going live. If you want to check it out, its available at www.socialsurprise.co. It’s a site that allows for people to send gifts…
Today was the first shift at work today where I did actual work. I got to help with meal prep and other kitchen duties. It felt good to contribute to society again as I haven’t had a job in nearly a year, besides a few gigs here and there. I’ll be working full time next…
Well, my first real shift at work was completed yesterday. As I thought, it was watching a lot of videos, but at least I was getting paid to do it. I have another shift today so I should get through the rest of the videos and into the actual work. I’ll let you know how…
Today I official start at the restaurant I was hired at last week! It sounds like I’ll be watching videos as part of the training on sexual harassment, how to operate the different machines and cook food. I’m excited to get back into the workforce after being out of work for the last 11+ months.…
