I just got a call for a second interview for a job I didn't think the interview went that great for.
I am nervous because it is the same job I am doing now for a different area but I would be making much more. Problem is my boss is mega flexible which is working right now with Dd's daycare losing transportation and me having to pick her up/ Bring her to work on days she doesn't have school.

You don’t have to make any decisions right now and it’s always good to have options.

I’d talk to the potential new boss about the flexibility. I know for me, if you’re upfront about your needs now rather than once you take the job, employers are a lot more understanding and willing to work with you.

Just got done a shelter in place for a possible threat. Man it's not fun working in a school in these times.

This is my plan especially since the boss is also half hybrid since his family still lives in a different city.

We are all home today due to high winds from the nor’easter. A massive branch came down in our front yard, right where the kids play while waiting for the bus 😑 I love trees and all, but the really big oaks in our front yard have always made me nervous, this doesn’t help!

I went to Ulta last night to pick up a couple of things and the lady that works there called me an old gal. Am not well.

I am not pleased, I do not want to be a part of this "old gal" group. Let me pretend my skin is not aging as long as I can.

DS has school off today so I'm juggling WFH with keeping an overall eye on him. Thankfully he's pretty chill today. My stress level is through the roof with work so I'll take any small favors.

PinkFreud I’m so sorry, I hope everyone is ok. I thought today was Thursday when I woke up but apparently it’s not. In the bright side, MH is gone until Friday and it’s so nice to be in a quiet house by myself.

Who would use this term at all, let alone to someone under the age of 90? clearly she needs better training on how to sell products to women, no one wants to be called this Just say this one is more moisturizing or this one has more coverage

I think I have an ear infection. DS’s fever broke though so I feel like the kids are on the other side of this illness for real this time. I’m over wiping noses though.

I forgot to start laundry last night because I passed the fuck out at 7, so I’m trying to speed wash and dry but my washer has been spinning for five minutes and I know my dryer will not cooperate and dry in twenty. So. Oops.

The last two days have been shitty pain wise, today I woke up and realized that I am definitely in a flare. The worst of my life so far. So I took a sick day and am in bed with my magic bag. I’m hopeful for better days by next week (Montreal trip. I know the weather is impacting my health. I will have to pack super warmly for Montreal.

angelashly, Wishing you luck with your interview and I hope it works out in a positive way. PinkFreud, I am so sorry. I hope everything is ok, keeping you in my thoughts! ---------------------------------------------- Found out the water leak yesterday is a roof issue and a window issue. Maintenance will need to schedule construction workers for repairs. At least it's finally not pouring rain so hopefully it will be scheduled soon.

It's pouring rain here and people have lost all ability to drive. I felt like I was taking my life in my hands getting to work today.
