Ten Minutes (No Pressure)
I didn’t eat Pete’s cake. It had whip cream frosting, which is okay, but I prefer butter cream. I’m not really sure what else to say about it. I think I said it all in my last post. I hope in his next job he’s better with names. Maybe in mine I’ll be better with…
Changing of the Guard
I think today must’ve been Pete’s (plant manager—“Who’s Leah Taylor?”) last day. I got an email saying he’d be in the cafeteria at such and such time to say goodbye if we wanted. I’m sorry to say I avoided that situation. A bigger person would’ve turned the other cheek and wished him well at his…
The Problem With Labels PG-13
Somehow I always forget about this when I’m in Staples or *gasp* Walmart, drooling lasciviously over label makers and various other office supplies: Usually I reinforce them with packing tape. Not sure if that’ll work on furniture, though. I guess we’ll see. In other news, my one pair of “good” sneakers is officially too tight…
The Best One 👍
Speaking of teasing my friends with planners, binders, tabbed dividers, color coded notebooks, and scrapbooks, I just got myself a new label maker. No no no, but it’s cool because I can operate it from my phone, it’s Bluetooth enabled! Please don’t make fun of me. The kids and I labeled the bejesus out of…
Here’s the Thing About Me 👍
When I’m wrong, I’ll be the first to say so. I don’t mind. Sometimes you’re right, sometimes you learn, that’s life in a nutshell, isn’t it? The stretches are helping my foot. Not in the 4-5 days the PA said they would, but I can feel the pain receding. I’ve been doing just a couple…
Noisy Phone 👍
You know how I set alarms for clocking in to work and taking my meds? You didn’t know that? Oh… Anyway, now I’m setting alarms for my foot exercises, too. I have alarms set for everything. But it seems to help. If you’re like most people my age, you might not remember how you got…
Little Boys That Talk Too Much 👍
Gavin told me he chatted with Roderigo quite a bit. “Oh yeah?” I said. “Lemme ask you something. Is he kind of a lothario? Like, a ladies man?” He didn’t know, but he totally said something to Roderigo, because Roderigo doesn’t give me the eye, anymore. While I’m not thrilled that Gavin obviously sold me…
The High Road 👍
As I limped myself up the pedestrian walkway the other day, a skinny little woman blew right past me. You know the one. As usual, no greeting, no acknowledgment, no eye contact, no nothing. I didn’t really expect her attitude toward me to change after I left that sympathy card on her desk. But I…
Aislyn’s Party 👍
We celebrated Aislyn’s sixth birthday at the playground down the street. A small group of kids showed up, as well as her kindergarten teacher. Our thought was, we were inviting the whole class, and our house isn’t that big. We don’t have much of a yard, so we thought, why not do it at the…
Numbers 👍
Down 2. Finally making some headway on that front. Of course, today I weighed myself before I started drinking my coffee… and my soda… and my water… and my Miralax. If I had waited till later, like I normally do, the numbers would probably have looked different. Oh well. This was a more accurate reading.…
