Aw, life needs to let up on you. Sorry it hasn't. {{Hecubus}}}

Did a lot of shit today, some of it not finished.

Went to Kinko's and printed out two forms.

Mailed financial document and death certificate.

Emailed with Pastor on change to service for JZ.

Tried to confirm Matilda's prescription. I could not beat the phone tree.

Researched catering for the funeral.

Called Kabuki Hot Springs re: Sibling Spa Day. Only Co-Ed day is Tuesday, so that changes their plans somewhat.

Rescheduled my medical appointment from Oct 11th until after the funeral on Oct. 20th.

Received three deliveries but nothing from DHL.

Set up online access to our finances.

Confirmed morning Zoom call tomorrow to discuss next-steps regarding all the places I need to send the death certificates.

Welp. 1 hour and 45 minute meeting about our boss just after work today. 2 retirees and an employee who transferred to another department joined 9 current employees. 3 others sent in written statements. That’s almost 25% of our department.

Not sure what will happen, but I feel confident something will happen.

msbelle I hope something good for you happens with your boss.

Hec, I'm so sorry you have to deal with your MIL and all of this.

My aunt's memorial service is in a few weeks I've been telling Mom I want to be there to support her and she's been kind of saying reasons why I shouldn't go (travel time, new job, etc) and I finally heard some things she wasn't actually saying -that the best way to be supportive of her is to not go. Not because she wants to keep me from it but she just wants it all over and she doesn't need support doing this. And I was really going just for Mom so now I'm not.

Also I discovered that Belk never terminated my employment even though I signed all the paperwork I needed. I had emailed the lawyer a couple of weeks ago saying I didn't think they had but she assured me I had done everything I needed to. But I called HR to find out why I hadn't gotten any paper work about COBRA. ...because I'm still employed by them. And the corporate HR told me to call the store. So I need to do that tomorrow. I'm a little worried there will be issues of some kind but I did everything I was supposed to.

I hope that means you're still getting paychecks! Oh, probably not because not clocking in, but...

Better than terminating your employment earlier than they should have, I guess?

I went to a friend’s last night and drank hot cider and watched “Over the Garden Wall” which I guess is old but I’d never heard of it, but it was very cute and fall-feeling. Good times.

The most autumnal of shows. JZ burst into tears after watching it the first time because it was so aligned with her sensibilities that she felt both grateful and sad (because she wasn't doing work like that).

I haven't seen Over the Garden Wall, so far as I remember anyway. On the list now.

A lot of shit, and you'll get a lot done today. Probably not finish, but that's okay too.

~ma in abundance. Sounds quite stressful.

Then you still have healthcare? Sounds reasonable to me.

I kind of know how that feels, although not for a while. America doesn't seem to like my sensibilities.

Halloween Horror Nights is open, Delusion is open.

I'm tired.
