Hump Day

[sotally tober]

Happy middle of the week! DD is leaving with my parents this AM to go camping for the next 2 nights, so it's just me and H. He is finally feeling better from his man cold. 

Work stuff is starting to calm down a little. I did reach out to the position I am under consideration for and was informed that they still haven't made a decision as to who is moving onto next rounds. But, she did tell me that she has interviewed all internals and is now looking at externals. I'm a bit miffed by the whole thing, especially because we "focus on growing current employees." ugh. Whatever.

sotally tober, that's dumb about the job. Thumbs down.

I don't know what's up with the job that my old boss contacted me about. Another person from that group (who I also use to work with, but not super closely) contacted me about the same position a couple days ago, but he seems to think the need is for a full time person. I asked my old boss about it, and he said he would talk with this other guy to see if a part timer would work. He asked if I'd be willing to work full time if I could do 50% at home. That sounds pretty good, but I said I would like to keep the door open for working less if the workload allows for it. I'm feeling discouraged about it, though, because I have a feeling they are going to go with a full timer.

Tman's foot appointment went perfectly yesterday and he is wart free. He is at day camp today, which he hates, but they are going on a "field trip" to a Tacoma Rainier's game, so that will be fun for sure.

One more day in the office after today and then I'm off until the 22nd!

georgeharrison, sending vibes about your job situation. And I have warts on my feet (actually one on each foot!) that I swear is from the nail place I was going to - definitely WAS as I am so grossed out about it. I need to go to the dr because I tried the freeze off stuff and now it's painful to walk

Re: warts - we ended up going to a foot doc for Tman.  We tried all the over the counter stuff, all the home remedies, etc., all to no avail.  We even went to his pediatrician and he used some industrial freezing stuff, and nothing.  We finally went to the foot doc and he scraped them, told Tman to change his socks mid-day and put powder in his shoes.  They were nearly all gone in a couple weeks.  After he was done with camps, we went back to the doc and he put some super wart stuff on the two remaining, and now, two weeks later, they are all gone.  

Good luck. I hope you get yours taken care of.  I've never had them, but they started really bothering Tman.

Floors are done. Home is almost back together. I need to go pick up scentsy stuff from my gal. Pick up my cats from my sister tonight and hopefully everything will be back to normal.

Nothing much tonight. Dental appt and class tomorrow. Friday night is Open House for the studio. Will probably dance. Drop me a line if you want to come.

Made a new friend last night from the studio. Went and grabbed a class of wine and cheesy bread at an Italian place down the street from the studio and hit it off. It was nice just to decompress with someone.

Job vibes sotally tober and georgeharrison

Yesterday was a no bueno day for me. Got dizzy IN my dream and was only worse on wakening. Had to call in to work as I couldn't even get out of bed. Then I laid there waiting for it to subside, would drift off to sleep and have it ramp back up in whatever weird dream. Wake up disoriented and wait for it to subside...repeat. I finally was able to get up close to noon. Tried calling work to see if they needed me but no one answered so I decided they could call if they need me. I only ended up feeling good/decent for about 2 hours yesterday and then it started coming back around 4. Had to skip my drawing class, too Realized in the evening that the symptoms were all similar to the whiplash dizziness and then I could finally recognize some neck pain. Fun times. Then i couldn't go to sleep until close to 1 am last night. Sigh. But I made it to work, less than 1 hr late today so that's good. Neck feels a little pinchy so going to see if I can get a massage tonight or tomorrow night.

Currently I'm feeling like I should stop classes and not bother finishing my certificate. Most work places are NOT going to be as casual/accepting of my health issues as this place is and I feel like random health problems are ALWAYS cropping up.

Hey all. Nothing exciting here. H is home sick today so its making me not want to do anything. I do have to go mow thaw back yard during nap though. Not sure how I've been the one stuck doing it the last handful of times. Probably because I get tired of looking at the dandelions more than anyone else.

Also its a week tomorrow since Old Man Pitty was diagnosed with a torn ACL, we are STILL waiting for the results/opinions of the specialist so we can proceed with a plan of getting it fixed. I feel like it shouldn't take this long, because even after we get the results then we still have to wait longer to set up a day for surgery or whatever so its just that much longer we risk his other side going out because he is using it so much more. Anger!!

Im still in bed, morning sickness + headache is a killer. Thankfully the boys are just watching TV and keeping entertained but I seriously feel like a horrible parent.

@ksta, I say keep going if you can. I think that it means a lot to you and you seem to enjoy at least some of the classes. I am sorry with all the health problems you are having

kwpnjumper55, psshh enjoy the resting you are an awesome momma

dana86, I would be pretty annoyed at this point and definitely would have expected them to be in touch with you sooner.

I thought Spa baby was coming yesterday but alas that was not true. :l so I am at work hoping the moving about will get him moving out

Today a friend found out her daughter is using drugs and is really sad, it is acid and I know nothing about drug use or how to be helpful plus the daughter is leaving for college here soon which makes it doubly hard
