Love you all.

Today will be better.

There is a woman on council that laughs at me and poo poor my responses reactions or when I make a statement tries to explain "what i really mean" like she has to temper what I say....or my feelings and she laughs at me in a public setting....

Miss potassium is done with her.... so there won't be a next time.....

I am tired of busting my ass and emptying my pocketbook both financially emotionally and physically for things that help this poor ass community...and all people do is sit back and take and then fucking bitch about it..like a bunch of entitled white trash scum bags... so the pocketbook is now a coin purse...a small one.

You don't give with the intention of receiving anything including a thank you... but I am going bankrupt so the coin purse it is.


I am ready to groom pasture poodles..grow food...travel to visit friends... play/pet/brush any cat who wants to be my friend... bake cookies....watch the stars with a bonfire...plant flowers....etc.....

It has been a long time since I had anyone explain to a crowd what I was saying. I don’t think anyone would dare do that today. Wat would certainly hurt their feelings very badly.


The three colour kitten is down visiting the new three colour cat. She will be there for the rest of the week and maybe into next next week. She forces herself onto new cats. We’ll see how the new cat adjusts.

@Missk_2022 you have to do what you feel you can cope with. I Chair our Community Association so like the local Council. I just accept that I ain’t going to keep even a majority happy. They turn up at meetings and I let them bitch before saying ..okay I am closing this down and this is what we are going to do. The ones who say thank you make up for the majority who don’t. But, do you know what, without people like us nothing gets done and I am gonna leave this place one day. By then I am determined this community will be better for my footprints so I am going to do it anyway!

I also chair other things and they are all the same by the way… it’s why I have more time for dogs than most people!

Smile and wave… smile and wave MissK

So blessed to look out of the back of my house at early morning views like this

I actually tried it, leaving the bag in the cup, and it didn't alter the taste as far as I could tell. I am a coffee drinker but have a cuppa from time to time.

 

[Greylag]

May I have a collective view on whether this counts as one my “five a day” given it’s got close to a strawberry at sometime. I am trying to ensure it doesn’t ruin my diet!

She is saying love me love me...YOU WILL LOVE ME...hahahaha

Yeah... it is going that way.... why do people do that.... i say what I mean and I say it like I meant too... I don't need people to translate my English to their english.... to try to help me....did I ask for her help....NOPE

And she laughs the whole time like I am her fucking child..... it is maddening

TGIF everyone!! A bit of catching up before my mid-morning meeting...

I got up to watch the lunar eclipse. You can still see some of it if ur up and no clouds. Never quite got back to sleep.

Did you take any photos of the eclipse? Asking for a friend... who was sleeping.

I need to find a weak tea meme for G.

A Weak Tea Meme you say??

Morning everyone!

Good morning, OM. Still chuffed to see your posts again. So happy you have the time to stop in again.
Good morning to everyone in the Café - early risers and those across the Time Zones.

It's March 14th, also called PI Day.
I don't make the rules.
I sure AF don't follow them.

Thanks for all the well wishes! Quick update. She made it through with flying colors! The Bionic Girl rises! Her hubs on the other hand was pulling his hair out! I’ve gained more respect for our medical field over these last three months…I already had but more so now. The good news is I was up all night helping her out and we got to see the lunar eclipse!

Off to iron a shirt for my youngest’s band recital today. Thanks again for prayers and thoughts!

Another Jemez Hot spring.

Wonderful news!! So glad the surgery went well and the first night, too. Sleep is good medicine - the pain meds can help with some cat naps. I'll change up a New Parent-ism and say "when the patient sleeps, you sleep", H

I was going to say something inspired and supportive but Wat and Grey got there first with eloquence and experience that I lack this morning. But, I give a mean Bear Hug... which is sometimes just as needed as all the wordifyings (as Wat might say)

@HumpDayHoratio

How is the Mrs?

Pain controlled?

Moving around?

Super important to have that pain controlled so that whatever therapy is prescribed can be done and range of movement preserved.

Also moving around prevents surgery related complications...

All of this - so important!!
If you're chasing the pain, you can't focus on PT, range of motion, healing.
to both patient and caregiver

I also chair other things and they are all the same by the way… it’s why I have more time for dogs than most people!

Smile and wave… smile and wave MissK

Yes - all of this!! Leave the world a better place... then surround yourself with People of Choice and lots of animals

I actually tried it, leaving the bag in the cup, and it didn't alter the taste as far as I could tell. I am a coffee drinker but have a cuppa from time to time.

I believe the distinction is between loose tea and bagged tea, not *gasp* leaving a teabag in the tea whilst drinking it (which I do all the time w/ my herbal tea btw - but I'm both American and a heathen )

May I have a collective view on whether this counts as one my “five a day” given it’s got close to a strawberry at sometime. I am trying to ensure it doesn’t ruin my diet!

Such Sweet Tooths around these parts. But reminds me I have fresh blueberries still in the fridge. Time to get a quick bite of breakfast with my refill.

So sorry you're dealing with that, Miss Potassium. To me the worst part about a personality like that is they drive good people away then look around in confusion when only the dregs are left working on the project and things are going south. *sigh*

For me personally it's decision time. In early February I had a mini-meltdown and quit the job I'd had. I threw a ton of applications at Indeed. Then I heard from a security guard company, and interviewed. They do a lot of training before putting someone in the field (a major plus) and I've seen in the last week just how much they see themselves as a team. Someone calls out sick, or has a schedule conflict and the others try to figure out covering the shift before the supervisors step in. Very cool. To advance very far I'd need to get certified in firearms (training that's valuable for more than the job, mind) and take an armed position. I don't want to be in a situation where I might need to shoot someone as part of my job (I know, I know the odds are very against that happening, but you strap on a gun for your job you accept the risk that you might have to do that). So it'll be two months or more of very part-time work to get my company badge while I train. On the other hand, I was contacted this week (before my security card came in) by a company I thought had passed me up. It's a utility-locating company and their training is 2.5 weeks, paid at my starting rate starting on the 24th. They pay 10% less and don't have as clear a path of advancement. On the other hand it's shift work, forty hours a week, and wouldn't interfere as much with seeing my kiddos. I know which way I'm leaning, just putting this here to get it out of my head.

Apologies for the wall o' text. Hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

Lots of things to consider....

I know which way I am leaning for you too

Make a pro con chart and compare....let us know what u decide

I am feeling overwhelmed by it.... I will pull up the big girl panties...put boundaries in place.... and keep it moving....

That looks yummy

What is it?

 

[Missk_2022]

Love you all.

Today will be better.

There is a woman on council that laughs at me and poo poor my responses reactions or when I make a statement tries to explain "what i really mean" like she has to temper what I say....or my feelings and she laughs at me in a public setting....

Miss potassium is done with her.... so there won't be a next time.....

I am tired of busting my ass and emptying my pocketbook both financially emotionally and physically for things that help this poor ass community...and all people do is sit back and take and then fucking bitch about it..like a bunch of entitled white trash scum bags... so the pocketbook is now a coin purse...a small one.

I am ready to groom pasture poodles..grow food...travel to visit friends... play/pet/brush any cat who wants to be my friend... bake cookies....watch the stars with a bonfire...plant flowers....etc.....

I forgot to say...play in a puppy pile with groups of sweet smart yellow/golden colored pup dogs

You are far more grown-up about it than I.

Doubtful I'd have the stones to use this during said meeting... but I sure would like to

Potassium is spot on. A T-chart is a good way to examine nearly any choice. Just make sure that it is not weak pissy tea.

Number one, fuck that twat on the council.

Being in local government can be a pain in the ass and require very thick skin. I’m a vindictive prick, so I might just stay on the council just to be a pain in her ass and treat her extra special.

But I also wouldn’t blame you for not being on the council, because it is thankless work (two of my neighbor neighbors from the township council). No matter what decision you make, I’m sure it will be the best one for you.

Wat well remembers reading a new policy manual from a former employer with a new rule in it that was 100% because of something Wat had challenged. He won, but everybody else lost. Oh well.

This is a very pragmatic approach.

But I tend to be a bit like my dad, and un-pragmatic.

Yes, it was a fun day in the office when a co-worker was reading the fine print on the retirement policy.

Blah-blah-blah... "will immediately suspend any survivor option or survivor benefit otherwise due an individual if that person is charged with causing the death of a member. Any person who would normally qualify for a benefit who is found guilty of causing the death of a member will have his or her benefit permanently revoked."
