Good luck finding an awesome new job, Aimee.
I just interviewed someone I quite liked! I'm afraid this job would be boring for her, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Isn't it your job, as a manager, to crush other people's spirits?

Not at all! I want to nuture! This is why my last hire was so good: she was a year out of college, and had been doing customer service. She was just grateful to have a job where people didn't yell at her all day.

Oh Aimee, so sorry. Best luck for something quick.

Argh! Applying for state health coverage...Grace has it (long term care, catastrophic disability blah blah blah) and we applied in September and are still in the hell of paperwork. I have zero understanding of the system. The only thing I've learned is to stay on top of the paperwork as best as possible.
Is Monday done yet?

Unfortunately the cabinet is too big for the number of shoes it holds.
I think I need a closet redesign in my room and in Noah's. The shoe system that worked at our old place doesn't work at all now.

Today I got cancer insurance, disability insurance, accident insurance, and plants! Guess which one is actually exciting?
I have no idea what to do with these poor suckers. I guess I'll go get potting soil and some pots after work, then put them out on the deck somewhere and watch nervously. Step three is tomatoes and cucumbers and squash and cantaloupe, but I'm not sure about step two. Also, I'm not sure I entirely believe that you can grow cantaloupe in a pot.
Oh shoot, I ought to do something to make sure they don't get blown off the deck, huh? Hmm.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Michigan's Working Families program was pretty easy to navigate until I realized we lost her birth certificate between there and here. So had to get a new one. But, now I have it and she sould be signed up pretty quickly.

Thank god. Paperwork is the bane of my existence.
On Sunday we went to a pancake breakfast at the fire station. They were giving out free trees (or in reality, free shrubs, because we got a cape myrtle). I'm so excited yet unclear on where to plant it. Our yard is really yardy and we don't have a tree lawn. In the back we have some woodchipped area, so maybe there?
