The project I’m overseeing is just a hot mess and there is not much I can do about it. I’m managing project managers and not the actual project so it’s just frustrating

Yay for Friday! kim22 enjoy the concert tonight! I do not have high hopes of getting my Jeep back today. I figured the service advisor would let me know if the radio showed up yesterday, but I didn't hear anything else from him, so probably next week. We have a fancy wedding to go to this evening downtown KC, so I'm taking off half day because otherwise, there is no way we would make it on time. I'm excited!

TGIF indeed.
My mom is coming to visit this weekend and I'm excited. Just work today. I'm one of the only ones in the office doing holiday coverage so it's quiet. Hopefully I can make up for not getting much done this week due to stupid tech issues.
I was trying to learn some of my forms last night and there was one I was having trouble with and it finally clicked (I was trying to complicate it--it's much easier than I thought). So it was nice to have that aha moment.
My kitty boy is declining quickly and I think I need to finally call it and schedule euthanasia. It makes me so sad and part of me just wishes he'd go peacefully in his sleep.

I have today and Tuesday off. I plan to get C a Nintendo Switch for Christmas and saw a few weeks ago that the new one comes out today. I was too late for pre-orders so I was hoping to get lucky. I didn’t. I also went to Best Buy and was #10 in line but they only had 4. So annoying! He will be fine with the older one but I would much prefer the new one with more memory and a larger screen.
After that I went to Burlington Coat Factory, which I was shocked to see it’s basically like a TJ Maxx, and bought a bunch of stuff for under $75. Then I ate breakfast, read, and tried to nap.
C had his first counseling session at school today. I’m curious to see what he thought. The counselor emailed me what they discussed and said it went well. We are also seeing a counselor through the pediatrician on Thursday nights. It’s to the point where he doesn’t want to participate in sports if I can’t be right there. He’s also regressing in his ability to control his anger. There have been a few times recently that he has hit, kicked, or pushed someone. I know from witnesses that two of those the other kid was pushing him over and over until he fought back and then the kid told on him. It’s not an excuse but I am glad he wasn’t the instigator. Sigh. It’s been tough over here.

Hey. Quiet day over here. We had a nice night. It was amazing to not be woken up by a crying baby. We got home at 10:45 and my step mom said the kids did really well and seemed to have fun. We’ve just been hanging at home since. My friend is out of town and her childcare fell through because of a sick kid so her 2 older kids are coming to my house after school. The kids will all have fun playing together.

CT scans were normal. They sent in orders for a colonoscopy now, so I've just got to wait for them to call and get it scheduled. If the scope comes back normal I guess I'll talk to my primary about whether it could be an ovary issue. My brother says it sounds like ovarian cysts. But idk. I just know I'm not crazy, but I'm starting to feel crazy when things keep coming back normal. Maybe I will do that food allergy test after all.

Thats frustrating klong11! I hope you get some answers soon. I've heard colonoscopies are a simple procedure now and you won't even know what is going on. Not sure that helps!

I left work at 1130, swung by a friend's to borrow a clutch for tonight since I don't own one, got groceries, ate lunch, have laundry going, and cleaned the kitchen. I'm now in the pick up line to get evie from school.
I'll help her pack to go stay at my dad's tonight. She's sad she can't swim since the pool is closed,but I told her maybe she can get in the hottest.
Then I need to get ready. Im trying to figure out what to do with my hair...straighten or attempt big curls.

Hi. inthekitty So sorry about Denver. 😔 wedding oh boy. Was that park/bike situation this summer when he thought he lost you? Could that be when it started? Sorry he is struggling. I hope the counseling helps. Poor kiddo. klong11 You’re not crazy. I do gastric/hepatobiliary scans on people all the time with abdominal pains. It’s super frustrating for all of them when everything comes back normal and they know something is not right. Do you still have your gallbladder? Have you tried eliminating certain foods from your diet to see if it helps?

lahdeedah still have all my organs. My mom apparently has none of hers and keeps telling me different ones she no longer has and that are probably causing my issues. Her list includes gallbladder, appendix, ovaries and uterus.

Today my dad has forgotten how to feed himself and didn’t know who my mom was at one point. I spoke to the hospice nurse and she said I’d need to speak to the facility. They do have memory care here but I don’t know if they would be able to take care of all of his needs.
Anyway, I’m still here and will leave for my sister’s house in an hour or so.

Couldn’t remember the time frame. So strange how it just came on all of a sudden. I hope he works it out soon.

tgrimes oh I'm so sorry. 😞 wedding that sounds rough. I hope the counseling is helpful. Poor C. Thanks for the Denver love. My poor dude was having little issues here and there. Then he started having respiratory issues and coughing. I've been very fortunate to have him furry dude for almost 17.5 years. *Sigh* He's definitely having a harder time each day. Lily is worried about him and I think she can smell the sickness in him. 😔
