Final done, yay.

Almost 2 hours.  I got tired in the middle of it and just wanted to get up and leave, which, technically speaking… I can do, since I’m at my house.  But I ground through it.  It was easier than the midterm.  It had this system of depreciation on it that seems to be very hokey, [...]

weak, but recovering

I’ve been down sick for a full week.  I went back to work last Thursday, after being out Wednesday with high temps and that was a mistake.  I ended up down until last night.  Enterovirus or viral meningitis for a second round… or a combination of things.  Doc doesn’t know, but the bloodwork says my [...]

Tired as hell, but getting off work at 2:30 in the afternoon is sweet.  I’m getting errands done that normally get pushed off because I can’t do diddly during the day.  And I’ve got some quiet time on my own before the household gets energized with the return of the boys.  I’m refusing to take [...]

Time for bed…

Starting the early shift tomorrow.  Thoughts flicker through, implying that I’m crazy for doing this.  But I feel like I had to – for a number of reasons.
I’ll keep telling myself that.
Working on improving my attitude about things.  Trying to ignore the stress that I can feel creeping up behind my eyes.  So far, it’s [...]

The joys of PMS

Oh yeah.  Loving this.  Emotions heaving and rolling…. Skin breaking out.
This is ridiculous.  I’m 40.  Not a damn teenager (with no offense meant for teenagers).
The small children need to mellow out.  Rash or no, they are going to end up put to bed, and soon, if they don’t settle down.
Took Meyers-Briggs (spelling?) for the zillionth [...]

Starting on next Monday I will be working the 6am-2:30pm shift.  Bren’s school starts a week from that Monday and he’ll be getting out at 3:15pm each day, so even if I have a call go over, I’ll be able to get there to pick him up.  By doing this, and by having Todd take [...]

I’m getting ready to settle in and do this week’s course readings, but wanted to take a moment to write out some random thoughts before they escape me.  Still battling the last bits of that crappy headache.  Lived on Darvocet for the last two days and, sadly, I’m feeling the “after-effects” of it.  Blech.
Brennan appears [...]

Can’t tell but I’m dizzy and my tummy is doing an unpleasant dance.  Left work.  Going to sleep some more and see if I can weather the worst of it.
Whatever it is… it can leave now.

Monday was awful.  It was one of those days when I felt awful and couldn’t get anywhere with anything I did at work.  I don’t know that I can describe it beyond that….  I hate feeling ineffective and like I’ve been placed in a situation where I feel like I’m failing.  Monday was one of [...]

…that hurt.

I’m fighting some kind of bug… likely something the kids infected me with, so I’m just prefacing this with that nugget.  I feel crappy and I’m running a low-grade temp.
So I took my mid-term today.  Blew it in grand style.  I’ll get the grade next week, but I imagine it’s somewhere between a 65 and [...]
