I did a management diploma program at a college about 10 years ago and was in school part time for 2.5 years for it. I have always thought that I was one credit short of finishing the courses and just didn't bother to go back and finish even though it was making me feel like a failure. (I moved away from the city and the drive to school would have been hours and hours long)
Yesterday, for some reason, I reviewed the course requirements and either I read it wrong before or they have changed over the years so now I have all 10 required courses and applied for a record of the certificate. I can now officially add it to my resume!

pandora89, I hate weddings. My cousins and I are planning my sisters and my sister is a bridezilla. But really I just don't care! So I just comment on things without being involved. I'd laugh at someone expecting me to pay $1000 to host. Seriously, get over themselves.
Also I remember my bf and I were considering Ireland with an Iceland layover and it seemed to align really well. Flights from here aren't even too expensive!
I have to go to a meeting at 10:00 and I really don't want to. I have so much work to do but can't get any of it done because all of our stupid goals for this year are group goals and they are all due February 15th. We've had nothing but meetings for weeks. I'm over all of it. Group goals for performance evaluations are stupid and are in no way an indicator of my ability to perform my daily duties since they are all for special projects, not my normal duties.

My four year old came and got me out of the shower this morning because he 'let a man in the front door and he has been talking to him'. I ran out there and was like WTF, apparently the man was in his left ear.
I've never been so relieved in my life. I am traumatized.

Kids are the worst.
What?
He made it up. He said the man climbed in to his ear.
I am having major back surgery in 8 days and I am freaking the fuck out (removing herniated discs and fusing 4 vertabrae with titanium screws and rods)
What if I don't wake up? What if they nick my spinal cord and I am paralyzed? What if I go through this surgery and it doesn't help?
I want to stay positive but this is some scary shit.
The "what if's" when facing a surgery like this can be debilitating. Try to do your best to think about all the things you will be able to do after its over. The little things like waking up and not being in horrible pain, being able to sit for a prolonged period of time, go hiking again, yoga, running, etc.. DH had a spinal fusion in September and is a completely different person now. You are going to feel soo much better in 9 days. Trust.
For some reason I was randomly awake at 3 a.m. today. I kept "hearing things" and was up checking all of the windows and doors. I finally fell back asleep when my alarm was going off and snoozed for an hour. I'm supposed to run today. Blah.

Both of our dogs were sick during the blizzard. We had to go the emergency vet during the peak of the storm. One immediately improved. The older dog has had a slower recovery and has woken us up every hour for two nights in a row to either vomit (night 1) or poo (night 2). He is finally over the worst and only woke us up once last night. His appetite and energy are back, too. I am so happy. I was really worried about him! And I also was missing sleep.
I'm wondering if we will have another day off school tomorrow. I really hope so.

The man's name isn't Tony, is it?
I don't know what this is referencing, but that is my kid's name (huh)

OMG! LOL!!! I'm so sorry. It's from The Shining. The little boy "Danny" has a little boy who lives in his mouth named Tony. He uses his finger to speak on Tony's behalf. Tony shows him premonitions of scary shit about to happen.
I didn't mean to creep you out using your sons name. I'm sorry! I had no idea.
lol, no worries, I knew I was just missing the point!
My last day at work is scheduled for tomorrow. The office is only an admin, me, and two maintenance workers. I don't start my new job until Friday, I wanted a day off in between. There is someone filling in until they hire someone to replace me, but only one day a week. Admin got the call today that her mom was taking her last breaths and to get to the nursing home. I feel like I should be a good person and offer to man the office, at least half the day, Thursday, but I really don't want to and have some stuff to get finished before I start Friday. Ugh. I don't know what to do.

Who is your supervisor? Who is "they"? It's "their" problem to cover the office. Admin should get to go and you should be able to be out, too.

My supervisor is the district manager. He will be doing the hiring, but not until after a bunch of other internal stuff settles. I wouldn't be doing it for the company, they haven't even asked, I know that the admin will be worried about who will be here though if she's taking care of everything else.
