Hi everyone.
I loved my free day off yesterday, but I'm dragging this morning.
Re: Good morning!
Pinky - hahaha.
Top O the morning! I have been going to bed early and waking up late, bah.
I am excited because I get to clean tonight.
my god, you are a freak.
ITA with this sentiment.
I feel like crap this morning. According to WebMD I either have a cold or sinusitis. Whatever it is I just want my nose to stop hurting. I feel like Marcia Brady.
Ooh feel better SL! (PS I emailed you, can you get it from work or shall I PM?)
Wan - if you saw my house right now, you'd be excited to clean it too. Even I have my limits with how much clutter I can tolerate.
okay, wait. my morning just got a little better - my boss just came up to me and used her inside voice to say "hey, since tomorrow's your birthday, take the day off and i'll pay you for it."
SCORE! That was really nice of her! My boss wouldn't do that, we've tried asking for it. You got a goog gid over there huh?
Good morning!
I am hoarse...as are my three other co-workers who also went to the concert last night.
Good morning!
The inlaws just left! I thought I would do a happy dance...but it was kind of sad. However, today is my first day with Zara totally alone...yay!!
That is most excellent!
Happy Thursday!
I made it up this morning for my 5 mile run. Good times
YL - what does the school do on your furlough days?
That is so awesome!
Our furlough days were days that were originally scheduled as non-student staff development days. So the kids had the day off anyway, they just cut our meetings.
H+P, SL! this is how I feel everyday.
have you tried a neti pot?
I'm sorry that they're doing that. We had 14 weeks of furlough over the summer and the missing day of pay really added up after a while.
Send me a PM please!
Thanks ssinca. I have never tried a neti pot but if I'm still feeling like this in a few days I might be ready to try whatever might work.
It does suck. We need those staff development days. It ends up at a 2% paycut. I could be a lot worse, they just can't cut any more days once the calendar is made.
the actual neti pot thing kind of weirds me out, I found this thing at CVS and it's perfect:

if you can get your hands on some allegra and nasonex (or another prescription nose spray, do not use OTC) it will help.
- at least it's only 2%... ours was 20%.
Gross. That's terrible.
Ours would probably be that much if the state didn't mandate how many hours the kids need to be in school.
