BF 02/23

[yalllow]

[babycaps]

My office is a HOT MESS. I can't work in here. I have 93 "need action" e-mails after filtering out the junk e-mail.
I have 6hrs worth of meeting today and in those 6hours I will probably get another 6-10 e-mails.
I refuse to stay at work late to get to such e-mails so when I come in tomorrow they will likely still all be there.

At least 3hrs of the 6hrs don't really "apply to me" so it pisses me off my boss wants me there no matter how many times I have told her it's hindering my ability to get other things done.

On top of it all, some of my nurses are REALLY pissing me off!

[yalllow]

For once, I'm genuinely excited for today. They finally fired my boss. It's always interesting when people have been such poor performers are incredibly dumbfounded when they get the boot. DUH.


BF? My coffee ran out.

 

[bennieangel]

My coworker is out today so I need to figure out how to get out of the office for my 11am phone interview. Typically when she is out I don't get lunch...so this could prove a little challenging. I'm just not comfortable closing my office door for it because we have a really nosey pot-stirrer who will totally listen if I do.

[drensik]

I've been sick for almost a week. Haven't been able to call in to work because co-workers have been on vacation. I work in a pharmacy and really hate hacking in customers' faces. It's like, "Hey, you're just picking up some blood pressure meds? Well, now you're sick. See you in a few days!" And to top it off, SO has apparently decided he doesn't feel like helping with LO at all this week...hasn't helped with feeding or dishes and every day when he comes home from work is like "ugh...worst day ever". I know me being sick doesn't mean he can't have bad days, but seriously, I'm not going to get better if I'm going nonstop at work and home -_-

[nattybumppo]

These are all very worthy entries for BF, ladies... babycaps - uggggh to meetings all day and double uggggh to meetings that you have no real need to be at. yalllow - I'm sipping my coffee and sad for you. bennieangel - of ALL the days for your coworker to be out! Ugh. I hope you figure out something and GOOD LUCK on your phone interview!!! drensik - hope you feel better!!!  And your SO helps more!

I have no real BF....too tired....too many things to do....just the general feeling that I can't keep up with things. And how the hell is next week March?!?!! Geez louise....

[zandeela]

BF #1 Sometimes I hate being the super, especially when I have to have a sit down with an employee who is also a friend. But if you are stirring the pot, sometimes your job duties get adjusted to the sucky shift. I have had many discussions about the issues but nothing ever gets fixed so you gave me no choice...

BF #2 I am giving a lecture at a conference in 2 weeks and still have not done my power point, DH is not helping with LO at all and also leaving all the house work to me. When am I supposed to get this done?

BF #3, ran out of coffee at 8:30, today is going to SUCK!!

[bennieangel]

Thanks nattybumppo, I just sent the owners (my bosses) a note with a matter of fact "I need to take lunch at 11" and I will just leave. They need to adjust to the fact that this is how it will be because I have networking lunches & other things planned and it's really not acceptable that I can't take lunch just because co-worker is out (& same for when I'm out for her). We've put up with it too long as it is.

[kimberpoo]

Positive thing - I heard birds singing outside today! It's only 7 degrees but it gives me hope that someday it will be warm again. someday....

BF- I woke up this morning feeling a little lump that is trying to become a coldsore on my lip!! eww and ugggg!!! Hate those the mostest! This means I can't kiss lo until it heals up it better get lost! I'm putting some of this cream the doc gave me last time I got one on there so hopefully that clears it up fast. another bitch? doc just gave me sample packs. Dude! write a scrip so I can just have a tube please! another bitch? finally got back on the pill but doc only wrote scrip for 3 packs because she wants me to come back in before she writes me another for the entire year, just to make sure 'my BP is ok' and the pills are working out. really? really? I have 0 bp issues and I've been on the pill since I was 18. if I feel sick, I'll call. thx.
also, it's Monday. I don't wanna work. I wanna be at home with LO.
andplusalso, I've been feeling fat lately and I just don't have the motivation to diet right now, esp with it being too cold to hike/exercise outside. I'm eating cinnamon rolls right now.

[bennieangel]

Also, I've had a sinus thing for a long time now...and I think I finally need to go in. How long is it normal to have congestion / yellow (or green) mucus? (sorry if that's gross?). It's been at least a month, if not longer...and I've avoided going in because I hate going to the doctor.

[lincbeesmom]

Soooo much snow outside. I have a lot of prep for lincs birthday party and I can't go anywhere

[monster]

We are all sick with a stomach bug. Ugh

I'd go in. Sounds like a sinus infection. It usually takes two weeks of it to turn into one. Hope it clears up!

[lincbeesmom]

Whiny whiny whiny baby

[meggsm]

1. Baby is sick with a cold which leads me to number 2

2) sleep training has kind of hit a rough patch. Do you just keep going with maybe a few more checkins? Or cap the crying time? Ugh...

3) this is my last week of mat leave. I'm thankful for the time I had but still sad.

3) the people two floors up bang stuff around all night long. Like dumbells or something. It's so loud it makes the apt shake.

4) it's freezing. The last time it was this cold in our city was 50 years ago.

[bennieangel]

threetaboos, thanks! That's what I was thinking too. I can't take time away from work right now between sick baby & trying to interview...so I tried virtuwell at my desk earlier & they asked a lot (A LOT) of questions, then a nurse send me my diagnosis (sinus infection) and an RX to the pharmacy, and a list of other OTC / Home remedies to use as well. Totally awesome, I think especially for some of the easier to diagnose things. I wish I hadn't put this off for so long & did it weeks ago. It's literally been since Christmas when LO had RSV & I got a cold...and then my congestion / achey face just never got better. (I'm obv. one of those people that never goes to the doctor unless I can't avoid it haha). 

[bebeski]

I'm starting to pack on the pounds so must refrain from chocolate. GD it.

[threetaboos]

Benny is in a new screaming phase. Just constant screaming. And it gets worse if he doesn't get what he wants. When do SAHM get vacation again?

I'm still waiting for mine. Lincoln was super whiny today. Totally was wishing I could run away to a job somewhere for five minutes.

ETA: i re-read that and it sounded like I'm saying working moms are running away. I just meant, I wish I could get away from lincolns whining in general. I am extremely grateful that I am able to be a SAHM even though I don't love it all the time.

[lakecountrygal]

It was just too freaking cold today to do anything!

DH is working tonight.

I have no motivation to do anything tonight.

[zandeela]

Yep, LO is on the whiny train as well. not sure if its from teething or a phase, PLEASE be a phase...

[zandeela]

Yet another bitch. Got peed on at 8:30 this morning by a 11 month old puppy who is already trying to eat people, lunging, peeing/pooping everywhere, then rolling in it. My day just started out awesome!! the best part is this will be a chronic patient, god I hope he decides to never return!!

[kaitkat]

I go back to work next week, I'm not ready I know that it's going to be fine. But I am not excited for what I am walking back into, I'm hoping I have the patience for it lol

Also the stuff I ordered for miss things cake smash photos hasn't arrived yet I'm hoping it comes soon! Oh and I hope the post office gets their stuff together and we finally get our damn mail key ugh!!!

[kimberpoo]

can I do a Tuesday bitch? every.single.time. I think I'm going to have some time with DH something freaking happens. we only get maybe a good 5 hours together total during the week since he works shifts and I'm 9-5, and every.stinking.time. he's finally home with me for a tiny bit something comes up. either a fire call (he's also a volunteer fireman) or he gets called in for overtime, or the family wants us to come over (or just shows up) and on and on. never any time with him. sucks so bad.

[linzerd]

I have a canker sore on the inside of my gum next to my tongue, back below a molar. It kills.

Oh ya, and Parks & Rec is ending tonight. 

[jtizzay]

Also sometimes when I get home from work and the dog jumps on me and won't leave me alone and b is screaming in excitement that I am home and he nanny is rushing out rattling off three hundred things to me and my head is pounding from my day, I kinda wish I was back at work. And then cue guilt.

Ffct?
