Whine: My coworker took a job in another department. which meant I got to take on 8 more files. Except I'm already like 20 over what I should be. fuck.
Wine: I have a job that I enjoy and I'm good at. I've got a good boss and my work environment is completely drama-free.
Wine: I actually have a lot more wines than whines today! I took today off as a sick day because I was having a mini HSG (they just look at the uterus) to see if I had polyps/fibroids (I don't!) and because I thought the appt would go longer than it did and it was far from work. So, now I have 3 hrs at home ALL BY MYSELF before I go pick up Carter for his speech eval. It is gorgeous outside.
Whine: L picking up the kids yesterday at 3:30 and being home by 4:15 and having homework done by 5:30 showed me how awesome life could be if we could have that schedule. It was such a relaxing night. Sadly, I don't know how that would happen.
Whine: I am sooo beyond tired. This working nights and being full time mommy all day is really wearing me down. for the last three years I have been living on about 4 hours of sleep a day and I don't know how much longer I can keep going like this.
Wine: Annie has all her little princess figures out playing in her castle. i love her imagination. Just sitting here listening to her makes me happy.

My Wine is far better than my whine: My gf (A) text me this morning when she got off work in the wee hours that she is thankful that I am so patient with her crazy work schedule and that it really bothers her that she can't have a dependable schedule for us to plan time together. Then she said it also bothers her that she can't spend more time telling me how amazing I am and staring into my eyes...damn there is no blushing smily on this site.
Whine: I haven't seen A in 10 days and she may have to work this weekend too. We'll squeeze in a bit of time no matter what, but I wish her work would figure out their management coverage better so that A and her counterparts can get a break.
Wine: I had a really productive and good supervision with one of my workers this morning. And my own supervision apologized repeatedly for all the crap I've had to put up with and told me she's been trying to figure out how to support me better etc.
Whine: How do you balance between having sympathy for people's personal situations and also insisting that the work needs to get done. Argh. Also drama at DW's work that I can't vent about but affects us both.
