FWIW, you CAN wear loose socks with flipflops, if you indent the sock toe between your toes. So you might slide by the gift shop and see if they have any?
As for meetings -- this is for the job you're leaving? Parental sick time trumps it....
Darn your sinister attraction!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I hope your mom's ok, Consuela.

Frank, look at the bright side -- with your stuff in storage, you'll only have to pack it ONCE. And yeah, it will give you time to look carefully for something closer than Amesbury.
If you want to do anything like a packing party, let me know. I'm jobfree so have the time....
And yay for scrappy's first day!

Shoot me now. There's nothing wrong with her that years of therapy and a decent workout regimen wouldn't have prevented. She's crazy & abusive, argh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yikes, Consuela. I hope you're reading this in the future. Not Australia-future, just not 7:12 Pacific present.

I hope you are sleeping the sleep of the just, Consuela. And have some crisis-free time in the near future.

Our wings are not tired.

This is reason number one that I am stepping up my game now at 59. I don't want my DH or kids to have to deal with preventable stuff.
Suela, I hope you have a stream of pleasant surprises this week for some balance.

I got up at 4:45 for no apparent reason today, I was just awake and figured I might as well go ahead and start my day. Now going to work feels almost like an interruption. Probably not a habit I should cultivate.
