Oh dear, Matt. That doesn't sound good. Unfortunately, most health care facilities have such severe staffing shortages that they will put up with employees long after they should be let go. It may help to be noisy about it though!
Inara: I think she looks adorable. Mal: Yeah, but I never said it.

Yikes, meara!
I am headed to ltc’s kid party at a loud, bright bowling owl with a migraine. Send all the get through this ~ma, please.
Hive mind: what am I tipping the party host for an hour and a half children’s party when the host did the party set up and pretty much keeps the schedule moving?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Sigh...life with Mr. S continues to be challenging. We had had 3 nights without meltdowns, then he got disregulated last night while with Gary and ended up a mile and a half down the road.(I had to go pick them up) Right now they're at the creek in the park behind our house, trying to catch fish. (We do not have a tank or fish food, so the fish he catches do not last long. Why does he do it? Dunno.)

Fingers, especially near the nail base, can be really sensitive.
The outage sounds pretty annoying, askye, as do the customers.

I survived the party. The kids had a blast and now I’m going to take my migraine to a quiet, dark room.

I walked over to the library and back! And I cleaned half a trash can's worth of vines off the jungly portion of the backyard!
It's a tiny chip in my ginormous To-Do list, but at least there was progress.

Go sj and Theodosia with the weekend activities!
I did some housework and went for a walk be fore things got too hot. I’m hoping to get another early-ish walk in today and otherwise be lazy on the sofa with the latest Jordan L. Hawk book.
