Friday Randoms

So here I sit at wk. It's Friday - yeah!!! I have to vent though. Due to medications I take, a side effect is memory loss/difficulty remembering things. At home, Mike reminds me of stuff etc if I forget. At wk, I write down notes on what I do so in case boss comes bk and asks about something, I can look at note and remember what I did. Well he tooks my notes and asked if I was documenting something, etc. I told him no it was for my memory, and won't give them back. I try to better my life to start remembering stuff and all that, then it's a set back. Errrr. What is everyone doing this weekend?

    Why did he take your notes?  That doesn't make any sense.  That guy needs to be kicked in the gonads.  Seriously.  I can't believe you still work for that guy.

    I have ranted and complained about him a lot I know. But I am trying to make myself better and take the necessary steps to remember stuff. But who knows, That's what I am looking for another job.

  • Charity, your boss is an ass.  I give you major props for putting up with him.

    I'm making cookies this weekend too. 

    I just at a piece of Cosco cake.  So delicous.  But holy, sugar rush!  I'm feeling a little twitchy.  Indifferent

    I can't stand the excessive frosting on store-bought cakes like that. Especially when it's like 5 inches thick! It literally gives me the shivers. When people say they want an end piece because of the extra frosting, I judge them. Stick out tongue

  • I was inches away from hitting a deer today.  2 of them actually, but I was closer to hitting the second one that crossed the road.  Eek that was scary.  Even worse, that road is still very icy so I was sliding around a little bit.  Boo.  I've never almost hit a deer before.
  • My daycare lady's road is pure ice too, and I almost hit her mailbox this morning.  What the heck?!?  I can't wait to get my car back. 
  • To add to my craptastic morning, I hit T's head against the car door while getting him into his carseat.  He cried for a long time.  I suck.  Sad  <-- Main reason I want my car back.

    Did you talk to her about ditching her daycare job to go work out yesterday?

  • I did the same thing to O.  A few weeks ago I was opening the car door (SUV) and he threw himself to the side mid-tantrum and cut his eyebrow open.  I felt like the worst mom ever.  The derma bond worked though!
    Owen is 2.5 yrs old and Molly is almost 1!

    No I haven't yet.  I talked to H about it last night, and I think we decided we need to get serious about finding different care.

  • Please keep my sister in your thoughts today. She is going into the drs in a few hours to confirm that she is pregnant and they are doing a scan. She has had 3 miscarriages since my nephew died a year and a half ago.

  • we had our christmas party last night, from 9-11.  it was SUPER FUN.

    I think it took a lot of coffee for peeps to come in today.  Everyone is super caffienated, and not focused on work right now.

    I'd rather be in bed, and am thinking about it.

    Our work parties are always a blast too.  Thankfully they are held on Friday nights.  Haha I don't think anyone would show up to work if they were on a weeknight.  :)

    They did open the office an hour later.  The intention was a friday or saturday party, but hte place they wanted to have it at was already booked. 

    We had a team building event during the day, which made the party a little bit more fun, since we were kind of on a high already.

  • Yeah - we're going to look at dishwashers tonight.  Party!!!

    And hopefully finish our Christmas shopping.

    Is everyone else done or do you have some last minute shopping to squeeze in?

    That is really cool of them to open an hour later.

    Yeah, i'm going this weekend.

    I'm not sure what i'm going to get him.  Probably a game for his wii.  He wants a pellet gun.  His BB gun jammed, so I'll get a replacement for that. 

    Other than that - not really sure what to get him.
