Well, my work approved my four day weeks, but only with a pay cut. Which would lower my paycheck enough that we would be about $200 short on each month's bills.
Of course, that's just with my paycheck. If unemployment doesn't get extended again, then Joe's getting a job, so maybe it can work. Luckily, work's being awesomely flexible about it.
I hate monies.
We're taking Abby to her first con this weekend: Sakuracon. She's very, very excited and is contemplating wearing kitty ears to commemorate the event.
Make sure she's not as dorky as these guys.
my legs are omg sore. I am now showered and will head out soon to interview a potential therapist for mac.
the trees we thought we would have to remove just need major pruning, so that cost is going to be about $2K less than we thought, which gives me more $$ for a car. YAY!
G'ma has taken mac out on some secret mission that I couldn't be told anything about.
Make sure she's not as dorky as these guys.
She's twelve, adorable, and very much her own person. Besides, who's to say what's dorky? In Jacksonville, wearing a pair of kitty ears just because you feel like it and want to express your individuality would have been cause for major torment from her peers. Here, it won't garner a second glance. I'm certainly not going to dampen her enthusiasm.
Sorry if I'm getting on a soapbox, but it's a particular hot button of mine and one of the major reasons we got the hell out of that backwater burg.

YES, THIS. VERY MUCH THIS.

Jilli! Did you see where one of our bar friends loves your stuff.
I am thankful to y'all for keeping me up to date on religious holidays. I just wrote to R (who is Catholic) and told him to take Friday off, no PTO needed. His family is here from the Philippines this month and he's been holding down the fort for me while I try and recover from this infection. I love that my own boss never questions these "policies" of mine.
Once again, javachik is the Best Boss Evar.
It's easy to do this kind of stuff when your reports are teh awesome! I am spoiled in 1,000 ways workwise.
