I’m waiting to walk into work. Getting the energy but just not feeling it. My boss is just driving me crazy. She doesn’t respect my time at all right now and I’m getting annoyed by it.
L had a very bad day at school. I’m hoping he has a better day today.
I’m so close to finishing my prerequisite classes. I’m hoping to finish this week so I have a few weeks before my real MBA classes start.

Morning. I meant to check in yesterday but clearly I didn’t. I ran errands in the morning and then H’s soccer practice was cancelled because it was cold and super windy. I talked to the orthodontist and have an appt scheduled for tomorrow to get the molds done of my teeth. I will get the brackets put on in a few weeks. Now that I have things scheduled I’m kind of nervous. Today is just a regular Tuesday.

Morning all! I'm at work this week b/c our CEO and a few others flew in this week (Our corporate headquarters are on the West Coast). They haven't been here since January 2020 so it's been a big hoopla.
There is a dinner tomorrow night that my boss asked me to come to, but it's 11 people, indoors. I am not sure how I feel about it. I am vaccinated, but not the full 2 weeks post vaccination, but not everyone attending is vaccinated. And I haven't been inside a restaurant in over a year. I need to decide what to do. On the one hand, I should go. I mean it's my boss, and my boss's boss and a few other "big" people. But on the other hand, Covid.
Ugh, decisions.

jewels Can you attend and plan to just get your meal to go so you can keep your mask on for most of the time? Maybe just plan to have a drink and a light app? I get the dilemma. Maybe even plan to be early so you can get an end seat? I’m just trying to think of ways you can attend and still be safe. Of course, If you truly aren’t comfortable with it, you can let your boss know as much.

I have my extras today. But the mom got called off so she brought them an hour late and is picking them up 2 hours early. I told her to go relax and she's baffled as to what to do. I gave her a list of what I would do 😂
J has a make up game tonight.

Morning.
M was being super slow this morning and we were rushing to get out the door on time. So much so, that I forgot to grab my shoes. 🤦🏽♀️ I thought I picked them up and threw them in the car, but when I got to M2’s school, I went to put them on so I could walk him in school and they were not in my car. I waited until all the parents dropping off left and walked him in with just my socks on. 😂 I was supposed to do some cardio after drop off, but I just came home to get caffeinated because clearly I need it.
I have an eye appt today in a couple hours. So glad to be able to get some new glasses and maybe contacts. My last pair were not good. I tried the warby Parker’s out and the frame gave me headaches when I wore them too long. I hated how my contacts felt, but I’m up to trying a different kind in hopes to find a better fit for me.

After I get the brackets on I have to get a few teeth removed and I’m nervous about my mouth hurting. Plus making sure I do everything “right” while they’re on.

I’m at the dentist with C for his sealants. He’s mad he is missing recess but I reminded him he has baseball tonight and we can bike there so he’s happy again. They have this sign in the waiting room and I love it. Ugh they came out as I am writing this and one of his molars has a cavity. They are going to take care of it now so I hope he is ok. Of course I’m kicking myself for not doing the sealants a month ago when the appointment was originally scheduled.

Found out Cadence didn't do 2 of her assignments this morning. She isn't allowed to have her tablet today. Then both of them, her and mh, said they didn't understand it. How can a grown adult not understand a first grade assignment??? And if you don't get your assignment done because you need help with it, then actually ASK for help when I get home.
There is a red desk chair that keeps showing up in my office. I moved it into the conference room cause I don't want people thinking my office is a storage area just because I'm not using it right now. Then this morning, it was back in there. I think one of the idiot attorneys is doing it as a joke and thinks he is hilarious. He's not.

Ok work vent: A vendor just sent me 20 unpaid invoices spanning back to 2018. Over half are missing the PO number and work order number and a good chunk has been paid. How do companies stay in business if they don’t handle invoices properly.

And they need to do the leg work, if they expect to get paid. Are they being audited currently?

I'm working from home today. I have an appt at 3 to see about putting filler under my eyes to get rid of these huge bags.
Pray for me that it will help.

Hey! I’m currently in the waiting room waiting for my mammogram. 😬.
My sister called me on my way here and we talked about my grandpa who is not doing well at all. So I had a good cry, now my face is red and splotchy. I’ll be headed there this weekend to see him. My cousins are flying in this weekend also to see him so I’m sure there will be lots of family time.

The number of times I bring Josie to school in my slippers is unbelievable. Thankfully it’s just a drop off, and I don’t have to get out of the car.

lahdeedah, Have you tried zenni optical. The frames are so inexpensive, so I bought a ton of different pairs (I think four) so I could switch them out as I needed/wanted.

I researched them with little effort and pushed back on them. So they are working on getting me documentation.

Sorry about C’s cavity, wedding! @jewlels, I know I’m still on the more conservative end of all things Covid, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable attending inside and with others who are not vaccinated.

jewels we’re conservative too when it’s comes to COVID... we don’t allow play dates, which I feel horrible about. Especially since I overheard ds stating to another kid ‘I would love to play with you, but my parents won’t allow me’. I’m thinking once we can do outdoor play dates I’ll be more comfortable. It all sucks! Hope you can find an option you’re comfortable with.

Hi ladies. Ssdd over here, picking up kids from school, errands, laundry, meal prep. The weather was nice again, so lots of outdoor play time. I’m still cooking one nee dish every week, today’s dish was okay.
Numbers are still not great over here, so no hopes for loosening of restrictions. Vaccinations are going beyond slow, and the J&J stop and the hassle with Astra Zeneca is not helping... I’m so tired of it all, but hey who isn’t?!

Nothing exciting here. I got a lot of work done for my job today at my other job this weekend so I took doggo on a long walk this morning. Read 3 chapters while walking. I really want to get back to reading.
Speaking of reading, Cass is really enjoying Pug Diaries, Owl Diaries, and Unicorn Diaries. Maddie just read the first Scary Stories to Tell After Dark and demanded I get her the other 2. I loved those when I was a kid.
I watched the movie The Lie on Prime. I won't say much but it was brutal. The ending, man...

nam2013 sorry there's no sign of improving yet. In my state the vax numbers are rising, but cases have been rising as well since restrictions were loosened so we might move backward again. The J&J clotting issue is a bit concerning so I'm glad to see they are slowing down on that until they figure out what's wrong. MH was able to get in on extra vaccines available at a pharmacy that were going to waste so he got his appt bumped up to yesterday. I'm glad because he's a 52 yo w/diabetes so I was somewhat anxious about him not being vaxxed. His second shot is in 3 weeks.
