Thrive to spite them

JZ, I'm finally getting to the point where I have to be brave and can't put off avoiding being scared.

That's hard, askye. That is a lot of change to manage/think about. Good for you for addressing it.

Thanks. His mom kind of apologized, well she said she was sorry if she talked harshly to me but that she wasn't going to apologize to M. I told her I accepted her apology , the other thing was between her and M and that if she wants or needs my help she will have to ask politely and give me some notice or let me wind down what I'm doing because I won't drop everything. Which she seemed to accept . Now I just have to follow through.

Good for you, askye. That can’t have been easy.

Good for you askye.

So delighted for the Zmayhem! Um, about the house, not the Covid. It’s a wonderful house, and after fighting so hard to keep SF home I’m glad to see you getting something with so much character, and that will open up options for Emmett and Matilda.

Sleep study achieved. Results in a week.

Now that I'm home, bacon reward.

Our wings are not tired.

Mmmm, bacon!

Well done, askye. People around me aren't allowed to mistreat me and for the most part they know that or figure it out immediately. People around me mistreating each other makes me very anxious so I usually have to remove myself.

Looks like Judi will be released to rehab today. Her mobility and oxygen level isn't good enough to go home. Assuming the release I'll go back home and come back when she goes home to help with the transition. My brother can do fine with Rehab visits and fetching her stuff from her house and cat feeding.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So many hugs to people. Sj and Steph, I am so sorry for your losses.

Askye, as hard as it is, you deserve to make yourself and happiness a priority.

Left work last night to a completely flat tire. Called roadside assistance and now have the donut spare on.

Today is wfh day and the garage door is getting fixed. Shockingly I have zero motivation to do actual work.

So, I’m choosing a low brain activity (actually two) that need to get done and I’m allowing myself to watch movies while doing them.

Good plan, msbelle.

Glad you can go home for now and Judi can get help from your bro, Laura.

Good call, msbelle.

I have approximately one million meetings today. OK, three. But it feels like a lot. My team has been assigned to run a new monthly meeting (each of us runs one, is the idea) starting this week and it went from being 1:1 with the demand planner to being attended by the new Planning Director and the VP of Supply Chain Operations and it is stressing me out.
