I'm having a high pain day and I have too much to do between now and Fathers Day.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
As a result of my mishap with the table the other day, I have a good sized bruise on the top of my foot.(It fell on my foot after scraping up my shin. )

Thrive to spite them
I just found out my aunt Jane had a TIA. My grandmother has been having them but this is my aunt. She is in the hospital for observation now. My grandmother lives with her and I'm wondering if the stress of caring for her played a part in Aunt Jane's stroke.
Dad was going to come up this weekend but instead he is with grandma.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Where do I go to register a complaint? Not only does this getting older thing lead to a distressing amount of weird sagging and unpleasant pains and such, but people I care about are quite distressingly frail. As witnessed by the fact that my dad broke his hip and had a full replacement the other week (he's okay!), and now the spouse's lovely grandmother has died (she's... not okay). And it's just a lot for a 10-ish day span.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh sj, Sheryl, askye, and amych -- I wish softness and comfort for all of you!

Aw, my stylist just got married. She just got engaged Friday, but both of them lost a partner unexpectedly & were like, we know we want this, why a waiting period? Boom.

I'm vibrating with frustration. Today was the first day of set-up for DCC. Due to some WAY above my paygrade shenanigans, the convention center won't let us into ANY of the downstairs panel rooms, including our volunteer services break and check in rooms. So we are sorting and such in a hallway that we aren't really supposed to be able to occupy, but the current conference was gracious enough to grant my team that space.
Add other shenanigans and we didn't get our inventory to sort for swag bags or t-shirts to roll until almost 3pm (I got there around 9:15am). And now that I'm in my hotel room I just updated my t-shirt order workbook to track what we received against what we ordered and what our needs were (stale info, need to pull needs again) and we are WAY short on shirts. Like ridiculously short. But with an odd enough mix of sizes and colors, that it doesn't feel like we are just missing a box.
The leadership team will be picking up their shirts and other stuff tomorrow starting at 9am. There is NO WAY we will have a plan in place by then on how to try to cover this mess.
I'm so beside myself, I just want to crawl in a corner and cry.
FUCK. Somehow I have f'ed up the formatting here. I'm done. Drugs and bed.
ETA - the posting box gaslighted me. Once I hit post, it fixed the formatting. But it was all backwards and right aligned and a mess.
