Morning I wonder when coleybug13 will come back to play.

Hi graciest719 how is school going?

[malvo]

Hi, graciest719! I've missed your face around these parts.

[malvo]

I carried M's diaper bag into work today. So, yeah, brain is not working.

[ladymike]

Why is this week so STUPID? Geezzzz. Is it the changing season? What is it? Is there a full moon coming?

[ladymike]

My boss is actually having a political / race discussion with someone here. At work. Out loud. JFC.

[Deleted]

ladymike the full moon was last Friday

I got to pick what color I wanted for the trike I won.



On their website this is $99.99

I officially hate my job. I don't want to be around these mean girls anymore. I just closed myself in my office and cried because they're slowly killing me.

[graciest719]

Hey y'all! I've been the dirtiest of dirty lurkers lately. I am super trying to get my shit together and I may be successful someday! School is going well, probably because I am not trying to make a good impression anymore lol. I just don't have patience for foolishness and I am tired of going out of my way to be nice. The word no has entered my work vocabulary and it feels great! But is this one 2nd grade teacher takes ONE MORE THING out of my office, I may cut a bitch. Thats my pen, my paper, my tape. MINE.

Anywho, I've been trying to get in a groove of work and LuLa and family. Wake up, LuLa, get kids ready and off, work, home, dinner/bath, then more LuLa. I've also been pretty diligent about going to hot yoga a couple times a week. My schedule is packed. Jo has been very clingy since I've gone back to work, so I really try to present when I am home with her. I feel bad about neglecting my friendships here, so I am going to try harder.

malvo, Fuck 'em and feed 'em donuts. Think how much those heifers hate themselves if they have to be hateful to other people. You are a good person and don't you forget it.

[graciest719]

This has been the Mondayest week ever.

2 weeks ago, lady claimed a Randy. Never paid, I cancelled the invoice.

3 days later, lady wants the Randy. What happened? Invoice won't work! Ok, I still have it.. so, fine, new invoice.

The weekend comes and goes.. still not paid. I tell her to pay by this time or I can't guarantee it. No pay, cancel again.

She e-mails me again.. I'm so sorry, I was moving this weekend and I didn't have internet, can you send a new invoice? I'm raging internally, but I send again.

Two days later (today), she says, what shirt is this? Can you attach a picture?

I CAN'T. NO. MAKE IT STOPPP. PAY OR GTFO.

Wow you keep getting the good ones

[graciest719]

ladymike, These people...I had someone message me 16 times on Monday about an invoice. Turns out she didn't realize that the email you get contains a link. JFC.

[graciest719]

I hired a housekeeper yesterday ::preens:: I am winning at life-all I need is a tiara lol

Yes!! I told someone a few minutes ago I have no idea what today is but if they said Monday I would believe it.

[malvo]

Thank you, graciest719 and ladymike. I needed to hear (read) those words. They have totally turned on me and my anxiety is through the roof. I don't know how to fix it and have things go back to normal. I guess I just care too much about what people think of me. But, really, I just want respect for what I've done in the last three years in this position.

[sjep922]

malvo I'm sorry work girls are being awful! Is it usually like this or just recently? Also, just read what graciest wrote, +5000000 to that.

graciest719 you sound busy!! You're awesome juggling all that though! I'm already planning out what things will look like when I get my llr call. Also, I'm jealous of your housekeeper. Big time.

ladymike wtf?! You were very patient! lol. Some people are ridiculous.

[sjep922]

I'm ready for dinner. My mum is coming to watch the girls so my H and I can go on a dinner date for our anniversary. We're going to the restaurant that catered our wedding.

It's delicious and I'm already trying to decide what I'll order.

[ladymike]

graciest719, JEALOUS!! MH and I were just talking about that the other night. I need some help, stat. Even if they just vacuumed/mopped my floors, scrubbed down my bathrooms, and made sure my kitchen was sanitary. Once a week. And maybe clean up the cat shit. Perhaps #becauseoflularoe, I will have clean toilets. We'll see.

[graciest719]

Well, the housekeeper is $60 every 2 weeks (she gave us a cut because I told her she didn't have to vacuum because of the Roomba lol). She will mop the bathrooms, kitchen, and back room, clean bathrooms and kitchen, and dust. She said she will also keep up with cleaning windows, the oven, the fridge. So hells yeah!

I just can't keep up with it and DH has to be told to do everything which really gets on my nerves for some reason. And I am not making a chore chart because he is my husband, not my roommate. And being passive aggressive just goes over his head.

And yes, all this is #becauseoflularoe. (I hate that hashtag)

[malvo]

So jealous, graciest719! We had discussed hiring someone to help with cleaning, but nothing ever came of it. I shall live vicariously through you and your clean house.

sjep922 It's recent. Their department is going through big changes and they are now encroaching on my territory. I said "no" to something (with good reason) and heard the director telling the CEO that they'll just do it through their own means instead. They didn't do it, but it pisses me right off that they would do that. So much for being a team. They've just been very snarky and I can just sense that they roll their eyes when I leave the room. What I really need is for the CEO to back me up. He tells me that I'm doing a great job and blah blah blah, but he needs to help move them back into their place and tell them to knock off the bullshit.

Sorry. That was a lot. I'm just so done!

[ladymike]

graciest719, That is an amazing deal. What's her number?

I hate that hashtag, too, and I always want to be snarky with it, but that's not LuLaRoe culture.... lol. But, hey, if you're curious, #becauseoflularoe, I have new contacts and paid my car insurance and have a stress level of 9999!!

[bekbek]

malvo, I'm sorry work is miserable. I really hope the CEO gets it together and backs you. Don't let the mean girls get you down! They aren't worth it. You are awesome!!

[portuguesemama]

graciest719 - I'll come out of lurking for a lurker random

I keep coming in and reading at like 2am but not getting anywhere on tagging and responding I feel like I've missed out on supporting you guys and being here. I'm sorry

malvo and ladymike - I'm sorry in so many ways for your sucky work environments. FX it improves and/or you can gtfu.

ladymike - yea no. I don't understand people like that. It's annoying.

[ladymike]

Hi, I just bought some new glasses:


I did the home try-on thing with Warby Parker. I didn't even have to leave my house or talk to anyone. It was nice. And the glasses are excellent.

[portuguesemama]

Had Ns 18m well check today. His big noggin is still huge 50cm (97%) and his body is finally catching up. Height is 33in (77%) and weight is 26lb 10oz (81%). Kid is solid and tall.
We got the go ahead for early intervention. She wants 40-50 words in the next 6 months/by 2 years. We still have ZERO. So I'll be calling them later.

graciest719 - Jo was the other non talker right? How's it going over there?
