I got into my locked office this morning, my space heater is gone. Someone stole my heater. No one knows who.

Also, I made cookies yesterday and put them in the microwave. MH put them on the counter and the dog ate them. I was looking forward to eating them with my coffee.

Morning. Ds woke up with his eyes glued shut due to snot or whatever, he was so sad and scared. It took me 15 minutes (and some gentle wrestling) to get all the goo out of them. Since I’m home anyway, I let him stay home. Dd had her 18mo well visit, she’s 32inch and 23pounds. A little on the light side, but nothing to worry about.
ETA she’s developing great else wise!

Sounds like someone definitely stole it. Even though your office is locked, I'm sure a decent amount of people still have a key. Mine is locked and maintenance, house keeping, IT, ect all have keys.

I'm off work today. The plan was for Dh and I to take the day to organize our basement but we did it a couple of weeks ago and then Dh forgot and didn't take today off anyway. So I'm all alone.
I just placed an Old Navy order. Everything is 50% off so I got a few new pairs of pants in the next size down.

I put in an ON order this weekend as well. Hoping things get here soon!

I'm sure the head guy that designed this building has one. He's a jerk. I bet he took it.

Morning!
I hope no one stole your heater, @peach. That's a real dick move. I would be so upset, @wine. I love a cookie in black coffee. Especially the first bite that after a dip. We're back to healthy this morning, so I'm making quinoa, sweet potato, black bean burgers for dinner now.

I just spend €170 on helly Hansen wintergear for ds, they play outside come rain or shine at school and the poor thing was freezing. I bought everything 1-2 sizes up, hoping he’ll still fit in to it next year. I saved 200 from original price, but jeez this stuff is expensive!

We have no control over our heat and it's fucking cold in here. They can't not let have control AND take our heaters! Bastard.

Charlie now will throw or drop something, and say, "Oh no, why you do that?" Apparently, I say this a lot. It makes me laugh every time. Also, my attempts to get it on video always fail.

Morning!
Dropped B at preschool and then had to hustle home to wait for his birthday/Christmas gift from my ILs to be delivered. The trucking company helpfully gave us a 12-hour window. 8am - 8 pm. 🙄
Since I’m sure they won’t show until late in the day, bc that’s how these things seem to work, guess I’ll be doing online shopping and Christmas decorating today.

I’ve spent a small fortune on cold-weather gear for the kids this fall—Living in FL was so much cheaper 😉 Also, B seemed to have a sudden growth spurt and clothes that fit fine last month are suddenly too small, so he needs new everything. Goodbye, money!

Is ge going to return it to you so you can at least take it home since I think you said you bought it with your own money?

I'm going to assume not. Since we only knew because the market president called to complain about our alarm system malfunctioning and slipped that the other guy was here. Then the manager asked if he had anything to do with our heaters missing.

I had a heated blanket in my car so I'm using that to stop shivering.

That's always how it goes, right? X has been so good at all his animal sounds. His ribbit and cockadoodledo are the cutest, bit of course every time I try to get it on video he clams up.

No space heaters allowed because the building management won't allow it. Huge fire hazards. Everyone there has blankets and several jackets.

I don't know how people use one. I'm dying. I emailed IT and begged for a new one today. My hatred for him is growing by the minute. I understand they are fire hazards if left unattended and on. But off? I turn it off when I leave for the day and for lunch. It's only on if I'm in my hallway. I'm not going to burn down the building.

I basically have it on all day, all year round. My boss told us if we ever started a fire we'd all be fired so we're good about checking with each other to make sure we turn them off. This is because 3 fires had started in our Houston office due to space heaters. The 3 people that started them said they always remember to turn it off. Even though you may remember to turn it off, someone else might not. Or there's that one time when you leave in a hurry. It happens.

I'm just so pissed at him though. To come in and take them while we're gone, not tell anyone. And when we complain and submit service tickets about how cold it is he says there's nothing he can do. But they have control of the heat. They claim it's on 72 but there's no way in hell it's 72 in here. I keep my house at 70 and don't shiver. I'm going to buy a thermometer for my office to show how cold it is and send him pictures of it. The whole building is freezing but only 2 of us use heaters. My boss wears a fleece like sweater every day and everyone else layers. But the manager and I do all those things and still shiver.

Morning ladies! I'm glad to be back at work. I don't know how I had a 4 day weekend and didn't get the house clean or laundry all washed. But we did get all the exterior Christmas lights put up and we bought a new kitchen table yesterday. Priorities I guess?
The company that is buying us is coming in on Wednesday. The sale is supposed to be finalized on 12/6 and no one here is getting answers to any questions. I had decided I would quit looking for a job until after the new year, but my frustration level continues to climb...

They need to fix the heat in the building.
