Thursday Confessions...

Re: Thursday Confessions...
We just started a new system of how to retrieve our patients orders (this was one of my projects to train our employees how to use it) WELLLL.....it's very simple. You just use a new drive that's certain employees who have access computers, go to the drive, go to the folder find the order and boom! your done. We have had people moving folders around, deleting stuff and it is the BIGGEST nightmare disaster!!!! I mean it's not rocket science people!! Why are you doing unneccesary things!! It just totally baffles me.
I am sad, sleep deprived, in a really crappy mood and do not want to be at work today at all. Normally, I would have taken a mental health day, but I need to save al of the time I can for my maternity leave so, I'm here in the office but am basically useless.
Just found out one of my co-workers went on vacation and, yet again, left me to clean up a mess that she created. She schedules things, never follows through with booking space or putting out notifications to staff and then "conveniently" remembers all of this and "delegates" to (i.e. craps upon) others on the team once she is out of town. Well, I'm not doing it this time, I put it back on her supervisees and told them to handle it.

Jen- I know how you feel... i am taking 2 mental health days next week or I am going to go crazy!
I am getting so tired of the same old same old. I want something new, I am not sure what I just want someone new...hmmmm
I confess I need to be more productive at work.. Ahh. One of my co-workers this morning was just telling me how stressed she is and how she has so much work that she just can't seem to get ahead of. (She does seem to be working hard most of the time too - not just slacking and then complaining she can't get her stuff done).
Now, I do get my stuff done, but I certainly don't feel overwhelmed. In fact, I feel like I have a nice balance - and still have time to nest every now and again:) I'm going to try to offer to help her more until she gets things back under control.
Also - I confess that most days at work, the biggest thing I look forward to is my lunchtime run. When I don't get to go because I get too busy or have a meeting... it is ultra disappointing. I'm still liking my job, but I can't seem to help the fact that my run is still my favorite part of the day.
Lastly - I confess that I was thinking about babies and names yesterday. (I'd just gotten off the phone with my pregnant sister who was talking about these topics). I know we're not ready for one, and the thought of it actually scares me a bit, but it still sounds nice to think about it for when we are ready.
I confess that I have not gotten my period since the first week in June and its really making me angry. I used to be very regular, but for the past year and a half I was on the pill. This is my 4th cycle off it, the first 2 were right on time, the 3rd I spotted for a few days and THEN it came, and now, nothing. I have poas 3 times, just in case, once for the past 3 weeks - all negative. This is just getting ridiculous.?
?Kevin's aunt and uncle are having people to their house this weekend and Kevin wants to go, but I already promised my mom I would help her w/ this thing she runs for my church, so I told him to go alone. Then he tells me that apparently his family was asking his mom if they would ever see us again blah blah blah. Ok, you don't invite us to attend anything, you don't even get together for Christmas, so how do you except to see us? And also, I was just at a bridal shower w all these women. Crazy birds.?
I confess that my house is a mess and I don't even care. (which is not like me) I am tired of having to clean every other day because of all the dirt. I guess thats what I get for living in the country. If it was up to me we would have already had our bags packed and moved towards Austin.
I confess that I am looking forward to Monday. It is my DH's birthday and we are going to the hill country for 2 days. Which is a good thing because I need a break. I have been job hunting for the past month and have put in about 10 applications and not one call back.
I know how that feels!!! Living in the country has some drawbacks, but other than that I do love it out here in the woods. I do hate all the dirt & dust and the constant cleaning.
I really hate my husbands job. Actually, not the job, the owner of the company. We have already spoken to a lawyer about things that are going on. The attorney says to hang in there and try to get terminated. They won't terminate DH's employment, he is the hardest worker they have and the most knowledgeable as well. I'm pretty worried right now, hubby has had only 3 hrs sleep and is supposed to be off for 10, but they are making him work anyway, even though it is illegal and a violation. I am just sick of it and want to call his boss and tell him exactly what I think of him, his ethics and the list of things that I am going to report him for!!! Grrrrrr.....
