You guys, I am such a good daughter. I have spent more time fixing my mother's chorus' website. I have downloaded an SSH client to change file permissions. I have fought with passwords that didn't want to get changed. I have updated all WordPress extensions. I have backed up the whole site in case I broke something while doing the above. And now I am figuring out how to poke something in WordPress because I can't view the site stats because they need them for a grant.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

You are amazing!
So, I think that Insane Clown thing is something another department is putting together in the cubicles, not an actual event out in the wild. Much less disturbing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ah. Things are starting to emerge for our work Halloween on Friday -- there was a weird party invitation in the kitchen, and I finally realized what the date was.

I'm proud of myself -- I'm still working on the calculator web program, and since I want it to work nicely with desktop keyboards, it isn't enough to be able to click on the buttons, you should be able to use the keyboard, too. So I worked the Google and was able to find enough clear references that I could set it up and have it working the first time.

Thrive to spite them
The 2 new people quit at work. We should have at a bare minimum 8 sales associates (not including the cosmetics sales women). Currently we have 5. And 1 person who can work weekends only. Well 5 and a half because there is a new manager type who also works on the sales floor.
We have 4 keyholder/manager types which sounds like a lot but it isn't when dealing with opening and closings ,etc
A new person starts tomorrow but I don't have high hope and I don't think people are applying.
I have no idea what is going to happen I think they are going to have to pay more. And we need permission from corporate for overtime so the most anyone can work is 40 hours and not a minute over.
On the plus side I get weekends off

I always take Halloween week off, partially to avoid the awkward partying. (Plus it's the closest thing I have to an actual religious holiday, and I get tetchy)

Ibuprofen works okay for me and acteminophen works great for fevers for me. But really, naproxen is the one true OTC painkiller. Is it killing my liver or my kidneys?
Not a big opioid person. When I had demerol after the c-section it just made me sleepy.
Meara, go easy on yourself.

I'm pretty sure ibuprofen is only dangerous for your kidneys if you already have a kidney condition, or indicators that you're likely to develop one. (Not a doctor but used to work on End Stage Renal Disease programs for Medicare.)

Go Theodosia!
Ibuprofen was my drug of choice back when I had cramps. Now that I'm past that, it seems to work for headaches and such. The only thing that helped when my knees were acting up seemed to be CBD oil.
I've had opioids after minor surgery, and they seemed to do their job. When I stopped hurting I stopped taking them. But clearly, different people react differently to various meds.
