I freaking love my chiropractor! For YEARS I have said something is off with my thyroid. All the doctors would just run the TSH and tell me it was fine. She took one look at it and said it isn't. So, I FINALLY have lab orders to go and get a full thyroid panel done! I am so excited! @Meghan509 Sounds like you had a really…

Happy Friday! I have been slogging through the files… I thought it would go a LOT faster than it is. Oh, well, keeps me busy, off the streets, and out of the gangs. LOL @Meghan509 The one good thing to come out of COVID was much more flexibility with working at home. That is a big reason I left teaching. I have family that…

I got things done and got more baby time, so today is a good day. AND, I realized I still have my second caffeine! I got my "have tos" done this morning and now I am back in the files getting things sorted. Hoping to be through the files by the end of the day tomorrow so I can send the spreadsheet to my boss when he gets…

@Meghan509 Yes! Employees can bring their baby in for up to a year. He is ADORABLE!! And now he has half a dozen new grandmas/aunties. LOL We all take turns getting baby time. I am also wading through all the new stuff, slowly but surely. Since petroleum prices are so low, there aren't a lot of new things coming in, so I…

Well, yesterday was about what I expected. BUT our new office baby started yesterday. He is so adorable! I got to hold him for a long time this morning. 👶 We have someone who is getting ready to retire that has been here for a long time and I am, at least temporarily, taking over their tasks. And we have someone else that…

Well, Monday is back… like that on weird coworker that nobody really likes, but you can't make them go away. I almost walked out of the house with my socks in my hand and no shoes this morning… It's that kind of day. @Meghan509 Sorry about the Patriot's loss. I have a soft spot for the Patriots. I used to work in the…

Holy Cow! Traffic was SPECTACULAR today! I need to buy a lottery ticket on the way home because I never get that lucky! I and a coworker are diving into the filing cabinets today. If I don't return, it's because I am trapped in a mountain of folders! LOL I hope you have a HAPPY FRIDAY! Stay safe and warm this weekend! I is…

I just realized that I never posted yesterday and today is over halfway over! We signed the contract for replacement windows and siding. We went with sage vinyl siding with white trim and the windows will be white on the outside with fake wood grain on the inside to match all the wood trim in the house. Windows will be…

@Meghan509 Sounds like you had a busy weekend! I bet you look fabulous! Glad the HRT is helping. Hormones are crazy. And sounds like your mom is definitely on the mend. Rehab facilities are the best! I am having a busy, but productive day. Getting all the weirdness straightened out. Hopefully Thursday will be a good day.…

Well, January was 27 weeks long… Happy February! Monday is being a weird day, as usual. I'mma just roll with it. I am getting things done slowly but surely. This weekend was pretty good. The temperature was nice, so a lot of the snow melted. It is supposed to be nice and warm this week, so the rest should be gone pretty…

Finally Friday!!! (I thought a whole lot more f-words in there) The good news is that today is going pretty quickly. @Meghan509 I think we have picked a contractor and a siding type. This weekend we are going to drive around and look at houses and pick a color. 😊 Stay warm and cozy this weekend! I feel for your guy. I am…

Good morning (barley)! It is Thursday and Thursdays are the best days! Traffic was awful this morning. There were way more cars than usual and it was super slow. Oh, well, I guess I made it, didn't I? I have a few things to do today, but I should be done with all of that in an hour or so. Then I get to go and meet my…

Good morning! Today has been pretty chill. Traffic was smooth, except for the car in the snowy turn lane that fishtailed into the traffic lane. Thankfully nobody was there. Otherwise, petroleum prices are still low, so I am pretty caught up on everything. I am helping out with some things that I don't normally do because…

Back in the office today. But I don't mind, since I ran out of work-at-home things to do. All the major roads are pretty clear. Well, this morning has been a bit crazy. I typed the above about two hours ago and got totally sidetracked! @Meghan509 I saw that the Patriots are in and I thought of you! Glad you guys made it…

No pants again today! We got about 7 inches total. It is currently 0°F with a windchill of -8. I am still in bed. I have all my stuff spread out around me. I might run to the store later to get a few things. Or I might wait until tomorrow. We'll see how it goes. I hope y'all are safe and warm! Have a great day!

Today has been a busy one! People are all tucked in their houses/offices and have decided to catch up on all their paperwork! LOL I don't mind. Keeps me busy. And we are working remotely today, so I didn't even have to put on real pants. 😊 @Meghan509 Stay warm and safe! It has started to snow a little bit, but the real…

Today is going to be a busy one! I have a big to do list… still catching up from the holiday Monday and basically missing a day Tuesday. @Meghan509 Glad your mom is on the mend. I bet she will be back on her feet soon. I am off to do ALL the things. Have a great Friday Eve!

@Meghan509 Sorry that your mom is in the hospital. I hope she makes a speedy recovery! Your soup sounds really good. Weather people are confidently saying we are going to get snow, but they haven't released predictions on how much we are supposed to get, yet. I think it is only going to be a few inches, but the wind and…

Well, I didn't make soup, but I got some other things done. I went to all my appointments yesterday. I liked everyone except the new GYN. I have shoes older than her and she has a WHOLE lot of belief in herself. I won't be going to her again. She is the first one at this clinic that I have ever actively disliked. They are…

Well, today is going quickly, so far. It has been slow lately, so I am getting to all the odds and ends that pile up when you are busy. I'll take some quiet time after the rush that we had in October and November. @Meghan509 I am going to pull out my big pot and make some chicken noodle soup this weekend and bake some…

Well, I don't want to jinx it, but today is proving why Thursdays are my favorite day. Smooth traffic, not a million things to do. People are chill because the weekend is coming. It is all good! The weather here is pretty much seasonal. The low Saturday night is supposed to be around 10°F. But still no snow for us. I am…

The weather is cloudy and cold today. People are grumpy. I think I am just going to sit in my office, drink tea, and avoid everyone. Good news is that I don't have much to do with the price of oil being so low. @Meghan509 I am glad you are enjoying your quiet time. 😊 I am going to go and make some tea and finish up my…

Well, today is Second Monday, but I am getting a bunch of stuff done, so I guess it is a good thing! @Meghan509 Glad you like your new hairdresser! I got some good sleep last night and I feel better today. Off to finish all the stuff! Have a great rest of the week!

Well, I need a weekend to recover from my weekend. We spent SIX HOURS on Saturday getting my husband's phone number ported to a new service. The account was 20 years old, so it didn't have the things it needed to have for security, so we had to talk to person after person until we finally got to someone that knew what was…

Happy Friday!! @Meghan509 Good luck with the new hair stylist! I am dreading the day that mine retires. I might just have to grow my hair out forever after that! LOL I know what you mean about looking forward to the gym. Sometimes I really do enjoy the movement and feeling stronger. The weather here is supposed to get…

Today has been a day! Everything has been a mess and I have gotten nothing done. At least we are dog-sitting a basset hound, so I have floppy ears to go home to. And tacos. I made it through my meeting yesterday with no incidents! Super proud of myself! LOL I used to teach half of it and I walk people through the other…

@Meghan509 Yay for a quieter few months! And good luck with the public kitchen. Those are always a little scary. Traffic was awful today! SO MANY CARS! At least nobody was being stupid. My commute is sometimes as short as 15 minutes, if I hit all green lights… today was not that day. It was more like 25 minutes. I have to…

Good morning! Traffic this morning was definitely back to its usual volume. Yesterday was a lot more chill than I expected it to be, but the emails have started already this morning, so here we go! LOL @Meghan509 We took our tree down this weekend, just because everyone happened to be home all at the same time. It took…

The Monday after the holidays is the Monday-est Monday to ever Monday. I can feel all the people getting into the office for the first time in weeks, realizing that they forgot to do all the things. I expect a lot of panicked phone calls today. @Meghan509 Glad you had a nice holiday season! That sounds so nice, even the…

Well, this is it for 2025. It was actually pretty good. Nobody died, got sick, or failed calculus. I am going to call that a win! Happy New Year! 🍾🎆🎉🥳
