Road Trip News

My mom flew to California for a family birthday party Thursday, and I had to tell her how to post pictures to Instagram. I am feeding her dogs when she is gone. If it was me I would have 8 photos posted before I left the 1st airport. I would be on photo 100 by now.

I am back in the work lines at Amazon as of this month. I thought I was not going back to a second job there, but they invited me back with many e-mails right when I was having bill issues. My second assignment there has way better job tasks and hours, and so I like it much better. Amazon has all the money, and so you gotta do what you gotta do as bills don’t pay themselves and I am a single parent.

I am glad to be returning to work today at a second job. The first few weeks of summer vacation were great when I had no work hours at my job, but now I am completely bored playing too many games. Schools really need to reduce summer vacation to 1 month. I am back to earning money for my piggy bank today.

The new Guild Wars 2 update looks amazing, and my review so far is five stars. The game world has become increasingly amazing in preparation for the expansion Janthir Wilds which will be available August 20, 2024. At the price of $24.99 on Steam for prepurchase it is not too pricey. Some people worried the new houses will make it too much like Sims, but I love MMO games with houses so it should be a change for the better.

I have played a necromancer since the first Guild Wars, which is still available on Steam games. The many zombie minions, and damage over time spells make it as good as wizards and rangers in other games. Guild Wars lets you play in teams with online friends, but it also lets you pick up NPC characters in town with game gold to play group quests solo if you want solo runs. The new game has had me replaying the old game, and both have loads of wild and exciting fun. Add me to friends online as Poedaughterz and Poedaughters if you need help with the game. Poedaughterz the necromancer is where I am online most.

The greatest myth told to children is “you can be anything when you grow up” as a profitable job. No you are not going to be a cowboy, artist, rockstar, zookeeper, and astronaut as most people have learned. You go where the money is or you suffer.

Epic Bike Raid Day – Today was raid day for my video game group that meets in the park. In addition I just got my folding mountain bike fixed, my transition lens sunglasses on, and my Bauhaus band shirt washed. Since I am single and have not had a date in months I have no choice but to get so fit from bike riding men from other towns find me attractive. I have not been to DC or Maryland since the VNV show in April, but I have future plans to go. I am now super sore from a full day of many miles of bike riding. It is no longer National Bike Month, but bike riding remains my daily hobby. In addition I hit a new record on Jacfit Fitness App for miles biked in one month, and I started in April and hit 200 miles this week. I wish-listed an electric bike yet never bought it, and so I had to do all the miles with natural human power.

No life has no problems as when we fall we get back up again yearly. Many thanks to my out of state friends in Texas, Louisiana, Washington, and Maryland that showered me with phone and Internet messages of help and support when I was going through a rough time last month. I was not wanting June to have bad budget problems. Interviews, jobs, and returned calls have been the welcomed activity for this month. Sometimes change has to happen to bring improvements, and a better job that uses my University degree is in the works.

No Texas and New Orleans friend and family reunions this summer. I was planning a road trip for May or June of this year. As a teacher summer off is one of the perks of the job, and many teachers have RV travel plans. Unfortunately major work melodrama hit like a sledge hammer, and I am stuck in town a while longer. Oh well fall has good travel fun as well.

For Memorial Day weekend I usually post pictures of my Lieutenant Colonel father Neil Menzies before his death from military service wounds when I was a child. I am the baby in these photos. I still use USAA for some of my banking because he created my account. An extreme reminder how many families have been touched by war in the United States.

Life may be rough right now but at least I have a good bike to ride. Life was easy when going outside to play was the only goal. #Nationalbikemonth #Bikelife
