I'm in a mood today. I'm just over the stupid shit at my current job, knowing there is potential elsewhere, which I know isn't how I should operate. But here I am.
Nothing exciting today. Last night I watched all shows I wanted to, since H is in Waco, and it was amazing! Big Brother and LuLaRich. Hope to finish the documentary tonight.

I’m over today. If I wasn’t getting a really nice free lunch I would probably would have called out.

Morning.
I’m supposed to be at the gym but I forgot my phone at home when I left to drop the kids off and just coming back home I decided to just do a workout here on the app. I’m sitting with coffee and cheesecake. 🤷🏽♀️ I work the next two days so I’m savoring my quiet time. It’s supposed to rain so that probably won’t help me be productive at all.

Coworker has been out all week, her 2 kids have strep. Thought she was coming back tomorrow, but says her kid isn't any better so she'll likely be home all week. I feel like I'm being a bitch being annoyed by this, but I know I would also be more sympathetic if it wasn't happening every single week. And Smokey just emailed that she's not coming in today.
I'm over this bs. I know I say it a lot. But, I've been actively looking again for somewhere else to go.

That's frustrating klong11. Does anyone else notice the 2 of them taking advantage of the ability to WFH and that you are always there?

@klongoria of course you feel for her, but with some people it is always something and it isn’t acknowledged that it is usually the same people over and over again who are picking up the slack. My h has a coworker like that, it is frustrating to say the least.
And Smokey is just.. 😣😣😣.

We're such a small firm it would be hard to miss that I'm usually the only one here. 6 attorneys (8 if you include the 2 working from home), 3 staff. Super small.
I think the final straw came when I was at home with Cadence in quarantine and coworker texted me questioning why I was even out. It rubbed me the wrong way and I've been distant from her ever since.

That was a bitch move on her part and I'd be right where you are with it too.

I'm here. I'm tired. I had a dream I was pregnant last night so I'm all freaked out.. I prepped overnight oats last night and they were really good! Glad I have an easy, healthy breakfast that I don't hate. Finishing laundry today and washing Mallory's carseat. Girl got carsick yesterday. Also need to do paperwork which is impossible with miss MJ.

I have no idea. If mh could just win the damn lottery so I could stay home and do nothing that would be great. LOL

It’s supposed to rain so that probably won’t help me be productive at all. I would like some coffee and cheesecake. There’s a shop by M’s drum lessons that have rave reviews. I finally went in to grab 2 slices yesterday and they are superb. The one I just ate has a blackberry swirl topping made with a local blackberry wine. Delicious. I have a caramel praline slice left. I opened Pandora’s cheesecake box😬

You had a valid reason for once and she’s questioning you like she doesn’t do it all the time for every little thing. They need to implement a better policy. Like if you are sick/have a sick kid you can only wfh 1 day and every other day you must take PTO. Bet they would bring there ass to work then. Or need to show doctors note for proof if you want to work from home.

Morning!
I had my annual this morning, and then I stopped at CVS and got my flu shot.
I'm trying to give myself a half an hour to an hour of downtime each day, so I am Phinne (going to) sit here with this 2nd cup of hot coffee and watch the latest episode of nine perfect strangers.

I don’t remember if you updated us, but did the biopsy result come back? I may be forgetting if you did.

They put a clip on it so it doesn't ever to be biopsiied again.

I knew C had it last week when he was crying that he couldn’t walk. DH said the nurse Friday didn’t do a good job swabbing him. Now he just has a runny nose, I think he’s over the worst of it already. I don’t know if they will count his quarantine from when symptoms started or from the recent test. Everyone else is fine, this won’t change quarantine for those of us who were already positive so DD can start school Friday and I can start Monday. Our school has a rule you can only be remote if you are exposed at school. I’m feeling a way about it now that we are going on 3 weeks for T and I’m not impressed with the random few worksheets his new teacher gave his friend to drop off for us with no note or directions whatsoever.

Our school has the same policy. It’s ridiculous. Especially when you can’t always trace it back. They should start C at when symptoms appear I think. I hope you all get out of this mess soon.
