Journal Entry Wednesday February 4, 2026

Yesterday’s question answer Battle in Seattle

Get the answer right and you get NOTHING!

It’s just for fun.

So I am not feeling work today but I am going to work today.

Something maybe no one knows I went to college for journalism. I wanted a job where I could write all day. I love writing.

I had a love hate relationship with journalism. I loved writing, I hated being told what to write.

When I graduated from college and even before I would go to interviews and ultimately wouldn’t get hired. When I would ask after about why I didn’t get the position and maybe what I could improve, the answer I received every time was they were worried because I was a single mom and wouldn’t be able to make appointments or whatever.

Thing is, I never mentioned my marital status or my children in any of these interviews.

I changed my references. The person who did it knows who they are so I won’t out them but it still takes the wind out of my sails when I think about it, now I am just moving forward.

I am going to keep submitting and getting rejected because I know one day I will get that job where I get to sit and write every day.

Ok well that’s all for me, everyone have fun today.
