I'm hiding under my weighted blanket from my inlaws and ltc because ltc was horrible today, and I'm exhausted. I lost count of how many times she told me she didn't like me and wanted me to go away today.
Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
That is just so hard, sj. I'm sorry.
I lost count of how many times she told me she didn't like me and wanted me to go away today.
Ooh, they can be mean at that age.
I remember taking some small consolation with Emmett thinking, "When he's ten he's really going to like me a lot."
Which turned out to be true.
But it didn't stop from stinging at the time.
Blah again. My sister just let me know that my cousin is gone. She was there with cousin's 4 siblings. Big warm close family so lots of support. Grateful Mona could be with her. Now to decide if I am flying up there.
Ah, Laura. I hope things ease up for you.
sj, like hec says, that stings. I'm sorry. Also, I empathize with hiding from the in-laws.
Thanks, everyone. I took a long nap, and TCG took care of dinner. ltc is asleep now; hopefully a good night's sleep will improve her attitude.
I'm sorry Laura.
SJ I hope things get better.
There are lots of new people at work and I've lost track of who I told what to and how long anyone has worked .
I've also struggled with someone because everytime I go to tell her something or ask her about something she cuts me off before I can finish . I have been frustrated because she has seemed so dismissive. I finally got frustrated and asked how I could communicate better (although she interpreted me a few times before I could get everything out). She told me I was rude , disrespectful and inefficient. I haven't meant to be rude but everyone is stressed out and there are so many new people and I just forget all the niceties plus I was kind of being rude because I felt she was being dismissive. She kept going on about how inefficient I am and I finally told her this is as efficient as I get. And some other stuff.
We finally cleared the air but at the end if the night she was still cutting me off when she asked me to help her. I did and started to say "did that make sense"vut she said "yes yes yes " before I even could say sense. I don't think she meant to but I am trying to figure out how to explain that when she does that it comes across as dismissive and as if she isn't paying attention.
The inefficient comment really got to me because it's like I'm offending her. But qen I start something at work I assume I'm going to get interrupted a lot, may have to hand it over to someone else or not get hack to it for a day or more. So I try to get sections complete rather than leaving a lot of piles or instructions.
So if I am organizing in girl's I will organize one rack, put away anything out of place, and if I find clearance that needs to be marked do that before I move to the next rack. That way if I get interrupted and have to leave it for a day or for someone else I know those racks ate completely done and I'm not leaving someone else (or myself) a bunch of different piles of clothes to keep track of and the racks left to go through.
Last night at dinner Aidan was complaining because Kara has a cat and he doesn't. This morning, Greg went out to take Aidan to the bus and 3 little tiger kittens, maybe 2 or 3 months old, followed him back up to the house, so we fed them. I'm guessing someone dumped them, and they're a little skittish, but I think we'll try to keep them. There's not much in the way of shelters around here, none that are no-kill.
Kitties!
