Epic, if you don't mind, how long did it take you to recover? I'm seeing estimates of at least 4 weeks (for endoscopic surgery), and that's reaaaalllly badly timed, with me just starting remote work.
You kinda can't go by me, because I got laid off right before the surgery, so the Doctor and I sort of (unspoken) colluded to give me the max disability available, since I didn't have an employer who was anxious for my return. My mother was back to work 2 weeks after her surgery. And both of us were done back in the pre-endoscopic days. I'd assume you'll be okay in less than 4 weeks, but do your PT and listen to your doctor (and to your body).
a coworker just asked me if I wore ombre on purpose.
Hah! That's awesome.
I am completely unmotivated, have a work project that is totally pear-shaped (big deadlines was supposed to be next Thursday, but a bunch of things that need to happen before then have not happened, so..I'm doing everything I can but it's not enough? Because I can't reach through the internet and make doctors do things?), and overwhelmed (by work, and by non-work stuff that I ALSO don't have the energy to do, like laundry and working out, and figuring out how to eat healthier because I've gained back half the weight I lost and none of my clothes fit me, and and and). And I got a flu shot yesterday and today I am all achy and unhappy. Which, yay immune system working, but ugh.
I've never owned a gun and never felt the need, but the rhetoric from some of Trump's supporters are making me start to question that.
Anybody else use My Fitness Pal? I started using it to track my eating and exercise (once my knee heals up).
Yes. I managed to lose 45 pounds last year just using it to track what I was eating. (I have unfortunately gained it all back due to a myriad of reasons) I found it incredibly helpful. If I ever get things back in order I plan to use it again.
I am GETTING SHIT DONE! at work.
Went to therapy. I am supposed to "do more things for me." Ugh I don't even know. Shopping mindlessly apparently does not count. I already started the gym this year, sheesh. Social is too much work.
I am supposed to "do more things for me."
Florida vacation! Okay, that might be for me, but still.
Hello all. I have somehow managed to be super busy all day and still not get anything done.
I wish it involved lots of travel, but no, she means out doing things and/or being social here.
I'm *just* about ready to buy champagne. I've been holding off because I don't want to jinx the election (like, don't post the Hamilton GIF! but also, don't buy champagne yet!), but I might be ready.
In 2008 Dylan wouldn't let me buy champagne until they called Ohio. (We take not jinxing things very seriously in the W household!) So I ducked out to the local grocery, determined to buy the most expensive already-chilled bottle available, and so many people had clearly had the same idea I had to stand on tiptoe and reach into the back of the case for the last bottle of Veuve Clicquot. I still have the cork.
I figure we'll do the same this year--tradition!
Susan, I have a very similar tradition involving whisky.
My first interview today went very very well! It was with a local food bank and seemed like it could be a really good fit. Off to my second!
