I hate my face

YA'LL. That's my thought of the afternoon.
"I hate my face."

One too many times, I've had coworkers ask me,
"You ok?"
"Is something wrong?"
"Why do you look sad/mad?"

Either they care or they're nosy. Or both...I'd like to think they care.

But truly, I find it annoying that I can't fake it well enough for them not not see that I'm pensive or upset or frustrated. I can't believe they can read me so well or that I am so transparent.

It was even more confusing because I didn't realize I was even really upset but I guess my face doesn't lie.
There's some silly changes that are being made in the company I work for and I'm losing my position.
I'm 1 out of 3 department heads...and my position is the only one being cut. It's company wide, apparently, but just my luck. And you know, as sucky as it sounds, it really does seem like a good thing. Except for ONE THING.
I pretty much don't have to close or open the store, I don't have to be held responsible in the same manner for all the annoying responsibilities I had, my pay stays the same, I get to do register and customer service more-or above all else... (those are the pros)
And well, I'm already looking to do teaching anyway...but in the meantime...
the other two will pretty much be my superiors.
Which wouldn't be so bad but one of them is already acting like she is above me, when she's not. It should be a fun few months, I suppose. (that's the ONE con)

Despite this annoying news at work, I had a great day.
I got up early and spent time with my babes. I accompanied my sis to the clinic, which was a fail, but that's okay because we got Dunkin' Donuts and kolaches.
We painted together, mom, Vanessa and I, before I took off to work and apparently, Vanessa and Valeria painted for pretty much the whole day. That's cute. Due to me having a grumpy face, one of my coworkers shared their pizza with me and labeled a napkin with my name and a grumpy face emoji. It's the little things.

Tonight, I will enjoy my time with my fiancee in the house of distant family I have acquired through him and pretend I live here. We are alone together and my heart soars from just being together with him. I don't work tomorrow so I intend to have an even better day tomorrow.
