Tubular Thursday

[trtlcrzy]

Hi, basement work is officially underway. The fireplace and built ins should be in soon. DH took the kids to the park this morning and MIL will be coming to get the big kids soon to take them to the library. I got some yard work done while they were gone. Nothing else going on until I have to work later.

tgrimes I’m sorry about your dad’s fall and bad scan. I hope it’s not actually cancer coming back. Your poor dad has been through enough.

nam2013 I’m glad your parents got to see your BIL but I’m sorry he’s changed. I hope he’s better soon.

The yard crew is here and they gave an alarmed look at M was outside practicing her nunchucks. Lolz.

Hi. Just another day at work. Not much going on. I need to stop by one of the schools I talked to yesterday to give them my waitlist form. I’m hoping that when I get there they tell me the spot is open. She was supposed to find out yesterday afternoon, but I haven’t heard back from her.

What did the director of the school you are at, say about the request for payment/lack of communication?  Or did I miss that yesterday and need to go back and re-read?

The glass doors on my master shower are being replaced today. It's the original shower, the magnet has been falling out of the glass since we bought it 6 years ago, and makes it a PITA to open and close. Evie can't let herself in and out. So I'm very excited about it. We aren't replacing with anything fancy, kept it cheap since we are moving in 4 months, but I think the buyer would ask for it to be fixed anyway and it was less than $1000.

Our new house is actually looking like a house...siding is up and the beams for the attic/roof are in place. The builder did push the close date back 1 week, apparently there is a shortage on garage doors currently.

I never talked to her. I thought I missed her call yesterday, but mh answered a call and it wasn’t the owner, but the lady that told me about the balance. So if the owner never calls me- then I will give no fucks when I put in his two week notice.

The receptionist that is normally there and I talk to was there yesterday and she apologized profusely and was very concerned, but that’s not on her. I appreciate her understanding, but that does nothing for me.

It's a million degrees here and I'm sitting with a fan on me in my underwear and meanwhile the girls are making themselves hot tea. Nope nope nope.

Called the vet office. Their next available was Tuesday afternoon. I said that wouldn't work. So they are letting me drop her off in the morning and working her in at some point between other appointments.

I’m glad they will do that. Vets are completely booked here. I couldn’t get Lola in for an exam until the end of September! I’m doing vaccine clinics to keep up until then.

Good luck with you’re girl!

Your poor dad, tgrimes. I hope he's okay. This move cannot happen soon enough!

So our district is short something like 100 bus drivers. It’s the second day of school. M was supposed to be home an hour ago. It’s 530. This is not ok. I’ll give them another week or so to see if it works itself out, but if not, I’ll have to change him to car rider and pick him up.

555 was drop off time. 😒 the local moms/school Facebook has been not happy with the communication about the bus delays. You can imagine the responses on there.

Guess I’m a PW. Would y’all believe I sent another package to Mississippi?🤦🏽‍♀️ take my internet please. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Those poor kids...what a long day. Were they sitting on the bus that entire time or did they sit at the school til a driver was available for their route?

That’s insane lahdeedah!

I hope your dad is ok tgrimes.

[lfig]

tgrimes I hope you’re dads cancer hasn’t returned. Once your parents get moved, you need a getaway for yourself! You’ve really been through it with everything lately!

lahdeedah yikes! That’s late!!! S would be HANGRY by that time! I hope they figure things out and get on a better schedule!

Hey! We just got back from spending the last few days at the lake. It was HOT and just not as enjoyable because heat=miserable. And S wasn’t having it (as some of you may have saw the pic on FB 😂).

My sister tested positive for Covid 2 days ago. She was vaccinated but her H is not and none of her kids are. So far no one else has any symptoms so hopefully that stays true. Shes not too sick, just “cold” like. She’s isolated in her bedroom and about to go crazy of boredom. And stressing out because she has to rely on her H to manage the kids, laundry, meals, ect. And she’s a teacher and doesn’t have her classroom ready yet. She was going to do that this week 😂.

My work world is being turned upside down for the next 6 weeks! Our headquarters building is being shut down for mold removal. So my office has been name the temporary HQ. We have several staff relocated to our building, packages coming and going, people in and out constantly. They’ve taken over our work space and I already miss the peacefulness of my office.

They had to wait at school until a bus came to get them.

Glad she is vaccinated and hope they symptoms continue to be mild. FX no one else gets it.

[tgrimes]

lfig I hope she’s okay and no one else gets it.
