Oldest and I just made fresh squeezed juice using oranges and tangerines. It is so delicious.

It's the only time one of the crisis house guests can meet today. We have started her job search. I hope she is able to find a decent paying job she feels valued at. We made her resume and she is very happy with it.

The job market is very bizarre right now though. So many places say they are "urgently hiring" then just don't get back to people. There are also a lot of $10-$12 jobs which is poverty wages. She needs to make between $19-$24 to afford a 1 bedroom and all the basics.

It also doesn't help that all the jobs want you to apply online. They all have to use my computer because a lot of the sites don't work properly on government phones.

I am meeting with my supervisor who wants to discuss a wage increase. I am excited just to be getting something. Its so stressful to support a family of 4 off my income.

I put up our new Christmas Tree net lights in the bushes outside yesterday. Wife wanted us to meet her at Vinnie's for dinner since traffic was bad and she was running late. I paid for it later with an acid attack.

Well you did it you even made orange juice sound good. I just for some reason never liked it. Even when I lived in Florida for a couple of years and had it fresh I still never took a liking to it. It is one of those drinks I will have if nothing else is available. Ruby red grapefruit is my favorite juice.

I met and talked to a woman who makes my sister in law, legit one of the 5 dumbest people on the planet, look like a MENSA member.

We were having a lunch meeting and someone mentioned that the worst part of the election was that Maya Rudolph wouldn't be a regular on SNL because of who won.

This woman, who is a lawyer, started to get visibly upset and proclaimed "You think it's funny but wait until Trump removes the rights of women to vote and work"

She was as serious as a widow maker heart attack.

It's amazing how the media has such a hold over some people.

The media is the worst, but people who believe anything in the media without verifying stuff are plain stupid.

I actually had to go back to my hardware technician days and replace a bad RFID reader on our printer today.

I stayed up late opening the 2017 Nascar blaster case. Nothing crazy, did hit a /25. I still have to sort everything to see what set holes I filled.

I opened the 2018 case this morning, a lot more autos in it than 2017, but the lowest number was /99.

I think I'm going to send some cards in to The King Richard Petty to get them signed. And Kyle Petty too since he was my favorite driver growing up.
