Sigh. I'm dealing with the stress of clients who are not paying on time. Normally that's just part of the process, but this time of year it's always tight and it's just exhausting.
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

Facebook is useful sometimes for confirming that the guy who was a giant ass in high school is still a giant ass.

Fun times. I hate when I see that telltale drop on the back and wiggle.
Sorry, ND. It is such a balance of trying to be polite to customers and wanting to go break their knees. Don't make me beg for my money, man.
Monday! Ugh! Crazy busy after ignoring work all weekend. Ah well, I did a bunch of stuff then handed it over to my son to cover for me. Went to breakfast with my sisters and Brendon across the street. The beach restaurant is wheelchair accessible so my sister got to breath in the ocean air and watch the waves. Heading back to her coast in a little while. I think I finally have the chair assembly and disassembly to fit in the back of the vehicle down.

I’m with Tim at the clinic for his epidural steroid injection. Since his surgery isn’t going to happen for a month or two, this procedure is for pain management, to get him through until surgery. Fingers crossed this shit works.

Fingers crossed for Tim, yes.
Glad the airshow hosting went well, Laura.
We celebrated Matt's birthday yesterday, and he enjoyed himself, so that's a win.

Pain~management~ma sent for Tim.
The airshow and hosting went great. Sunday was delayed by storms but my BIL and another family friend came over for my sister's birthday dinner and jet swoop watching. The crazy helicopter was there again. With the strong winds we were having we all had heart failure watching a helicopter do loops and spins.

Glad all the hosting went well, Laura!!
Fingers crossed for Tim!
On the one hand I wish we in the US got as many holidays as my global coworkers. On the other hand, having a day where I’m working and they aren’t and I have hardly any emails? Glorious!!

Good luck with the steroids to Tim!
It just occurred to me this morning that it is particularly provoking of my employer to make May 1 the first day of our 3-days/week in the office schedule. I don't think International Worker's Day is going to make it onto our list of observed (by anyone, noty byu the company) holidays that the People Dept gives us every month

I hope Tim's procedure is effective, Steph.
Laura, it sounds like a good time was had by all. That's great!
I helped a friend work on her resume yesterday. She's been at the same place for 26 years, but it's starting to circle the drain. My role was mostly to provide encouragement, snacks, and eventually cocktails, and to be someone she could bounce ideas off of. I think it went reasonably well. And I do like slinging gin for the greater good.
