Beginning-of-Week Update
Jul. 13th, 2021 12:58 amFound out yesterday that a friend of mine had a heart attack last week. He’s now up, and more or less about, but it was a bit of a shock.
I’ve got a job interview Wednesday for a furniture factory job— hands-on stuff, weaving the chair cables or whatever they’re called. I’m caught between hoping I get it (because I’m generally happier making stuff than doing office work); worrying that I won’t get it because they’ll take one look at me, decide I won’t be able or willing to keep up, and I’ll feel naive for having answered the ad; and worrying I will get it but that shop conditions will be abusive and then I’ll feel naive for having answered the ad.
Trying to figure out how to remodel myself into someone who makes chairs and is successful at it. I’m going to have to switch from skirts to pants, aren’t I? Or at least leggings. Will have to look around for leggings opaque enough to wear as pants but cool enough for summer weather.
A few weeks back, after an assessment interview with CAMH, I applied to MindBeacon, an online therapy site they recommended because it’s covered by OHIP. Got an email today saying they don’t think their service would be a good fit for my problems, although I’m unsure if that means I’m not troubled enough for them, or too troubled for them. Link here, though, in case anyone reading this lives in Ontario and wants to try their luck:
