That meal plan sounds good to me, msbelle.
Grr, mac.
I did a thing! And then I went to do another thing and found it confusing, so no momentum, but now it's time to go home, hooray!
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

Heard over the cubicles: "You wanna see my sad waffle?"
Apparently the size and shape and proportion of whipped cream and strawberries are not optimal. They are talking of great waffles of their pasts.
Why, yes, it is nearly quittin' time.

Guest is delayed so I'm having truffle Mac and cheese for dinner. If she's still hungry when she gets here I have the pizza.

So if you've been compaining for years that your coworkers leave a particular task undone so you have to take care of it, and it isn't fair - when the supervisor creates a sign-in sheet for accountability, space for both staff to sign, explicit directions on who is responsible for which step, and instructions that both staff are to check together that the task is done and sign after checking together - and then you find that the other staff is still not doing what you think of as their share of the work, do you A) note the issue (there is a column for that) on the sign-in sheet so your supervisor has documentation that there was a problem; or 2) sign the sheet without indicating any issue and start coming in early to do the other person's work while complaining that nothing ever changes?

Hmmm. Columns exist to be filled out, after all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our wings are not tired.
And the As have it!
DH has taken Skinner to our vet for a wellness visit. He wasn't well taken care of prior to the rescue. He was only 55 pounds when he was taken in to the rescue. Three weeks later he is now 60, but he had worms and had been treated for that. I expect in a year he will probably be about 80-90 pounds considering his breed/gender and leg length. Brendon is getting blood tests and stuff to make sure he doesn't have any other issues going on since he was spayed 3 weeks ago too and well just to make sure he is okay.
People who don't take care of their pets suck. He is just the sweetest baby.

mac is being very mac. tried to say he was sick this morning by pushing a note under the door. school started at 8:40 and we are still at the house. Normally I would just leave him, but we have a new foster and she and Buddy the foster do not get along so I need to keep them separate and I can only do that once mac is out of the house. Leaving him here, he would no doubt open the doors between the dogs because that would be required to move around the house, and he is petty and vindictive, so. I am stuck here.

I'm sorry mac is such a boo. Alas, I find that most young men don't get their acts together until at least mid 20s. My mom said often you can't want for them. If they don't want more out of life for themselves you don't have a lot to work with. Some of the most ambitious hard working teens DH has worked with come from horrible situations where they really do want more from life. I'm sorry he doesn't get it, and I sincerely hope he figures it out quickly.

I'm sorry that this is so difficult, msbelle.
As a supervisor, I have far more resentment for the people who choose B than for the people who don't do stuff cuz they don't wanna.
