And why didn't they do it themselves? It was "Read Only."
Oy and vey.
-t, work stress is stressful. Added commute time would be a dealbreaker for me. But I've never had a rough commute with any of my job/living locations, so there is that. Today I had to drive 30 minutes to the office and it really wasn't that bad. I think it is more the idea of it. Again, my take for me. I think if I had a decent public transportation option, I'd take advantage of the time and read or finally listen to a podcast or 10.
I hope they are open to the title adjustment, giving up pay and off hours time should have some benefit beyond "you still have a job so live with it".
I think we could slowly but surely take over the whole place.
I need to plan an exploratory visit before a subscribe to your newsletter.
He slunk off, but he probably wrote me off as a crazy bitch.
Oh well. As long as he crawls back into his entitled hole and stays there, whatever.
Epic, I'm so sorry. So many hugs.
-t I just read back. UGHHHH
Loki is clawing at my face, trying to steal bites of this spinach and feta croissant. And here come Pumpkin.
And now I need to shower, cause I just rolled out of bed & went to market & I have eight million stops to make this errand run and I'm totally too grungy/not awake enough to cope with that yet.
I was out of milk for coffee and ended up making a run to the local hippie co-op first thing, nabbing a few other things while I was there. (Pre-coffee shopping--I can't wait to see what I actually bought after the caffeine kicks in.) Good thing I went early. There's a music festival and the Big Game with the local college's main rival here this afternoon, so getting around is gonna be a fuster cluck. This looks like a good day to do the rest of my running about in the small town 15 miles away.
So my uncle is still in pretty bad shape but his blood pressure has stabilized and he's hanging in there but I just talked to my mom and my dad was in an accident last night. He's not injured, other than a cut on his hand, and thank god the people in the car he hit are fine but arghhhh. He really, really should not be driving!!! It's been worrying me sick. My mom is nervous on the highway and can't really drive at night but is fine driving otherwise. The car he was in is totaled but they have another. My mom said he's worried they'll take his licence away but I'm wondering if that would be better. Ugh.
That's so scary, Lisa. Glad things aren't worse, I guess.
Yeah, definitely. I know it's hard to give up the independence but they have options. And, while they aren't in a bustling urban center, they aren't isolated by any means. There's a grocery store across the street and a bus line that runs nearby. They can take the train down here. They can get cabs. He just feels like he's letting people down by not being able to do everything he used to.
It's gotta be hard to give up that sense of independence, but he needs to be safe. I'm so glad he's okay!
