He knows I know
Granted, I’m not supposed to be freaking out yet because his lab results haven’t came back yet (that’s a Monday or Tuesday thing). But I AM FREAKING OUT. Because I had no idea how much he was be...
Dog Update
Took the furchild to his vet appointment and did not have the kind of appointment I was expecting. Ever since the “overdoing” it on the dog walk a few weeks ago which was followed by his leg loc...
Wiped
Yesterday’s therapy session went well and was exhausting. It was my first session since being assigned the “Mothers Who Can’t Love” book. One of the exercises in the book is to write your mom a...
Dog issues
I scheduled a vet appointment for my dog for not this Friday, but next - the 15th (their soonest available for non-emergencies). I’m just not getting a good vibe from him lately. Although he ha...
Mondays
The date went well enough yesterday. We might hang out again this weekend. I think I’ve gotten a bit too comfortable at this being single thing though because I have no interest in hanging out ...
Aging dog
Today the first concrete signs that my dog is getting old revealed themselves. It was so gorgeous here weather-wise today that when he begged for a second walk about an hour after his first walk...
mother thoughts
In preparation for my trip back home to Wisconsin next month for Thanksgiving, my therapist has me reading the book Mother’s Who Can’t Love. I just started it last night. So far it is interesti...
Still nothing
Try as I might, there have been no more memories come back to me from Saturday night. I told the girl who was hosting the party that I couldn’t remember anything and she said her lips are sealed...
Not 21 anymore
Guys, I had an interesting weekend. Unfortunately there are time periods I have no memory of. And its starting to irritate me. I have 2 bumps on my head and one on the back of my shoulder and ...
On a Thursday
I did end up going to the Wednesday night running group yesterday. I’m finding that the best way to conquer the anxiety about showing up at events and meeting new people is to just not think abo...
Thinking Break
I do believe Thursday, as in two days from now, is the 21st day of psycho-therapist’s 21-day response time to answer the Department of Health investigator’s questions, whatever they may be. So f...
Superhero 10k run
So this morning was one of the two runs that I registered for during my post-race runner’s high last weekend. The second one is later this month. Guys, after 4 days of rain I was struggling to ...
Random thoughts and hiking pictures
Sometimes I think the perfect job for me would be a packing/sorting/warehouse type job where I just did the same repetitive job everyday, but would constantly be physically active. But then I th...
Just run
People are such peculiar beings! So I ran a 10k this morning (which i will get to recapping in just a few) in this nearby, Norwegian-ish themed town. Also, btw, I’m super Norweigian on both sid...
Tired
My energy levels are on the struggle bus today. I got to work 10 minutes late this morning, BUT I was still the first person to get here, so does that really make me late? Or does it put me in ...
Running group
There was frost on the ground when I woke up this morning. My car thermometer said 33 degrees at one point during my drive in to work. Even for here this is unusually cold. Its only October, n...
Time and Activities
Yesterday in therapy I mentioned that I like getting homework assigned in between sessions. I told her that sometimes she assigns it but other times she doesn’t and its the times she assigns it ...
21 days
I spoke with the investigator one more time today. He had another question he forgot to ask that he needed to ask before he sends out his letter to psycho therapist: Were you under any sort of ...
Investigator Update/ Transiberian Orchestra
I talked to the investigator from the Department of Health today! It was a nice chat, and I sent him a copy of all the e-mail communications between me and pyscho therapist. He said I have enou...
Crazy therapist update
Remember the psycho therapist I saw late last april/early May? The one who I filed a formal complaint against with the Department of Health? Well I hadn’t received an update since I got the let...
Have you ever volunteered?
Guys, it got cold here real quick and in a hurry. It normally doesn’t get this cold this early. I think it reached low 40s last night. That ish is usually reserved for like December. I turned m...
Better
I officially got my (and my coworker’s) effective dates for our raises. They are effective 09/16 (10 days ago), so I think I did light an “oh shit!” fire under their asses for them to back date i...
So, yeah.
So looks like I’m gonna tough this out a little bit longer. Money Talks. the $4.50/hr raise is an additional $9,360 per year (before taxes). The increase applies to my PTO balance. AAANNNDDD b...
Raise Offer
With next Tuesday (the 1st) being my scheduled last day in the office, I’ve been officially offered a raise if I stay. Its a good one too. $4.50/hr raise. DAMMMMNNNITT. I don’t know if thats an...
Whiney
Guys, I have no motivation to be here. At work. Including today, I have 8 working days left. They still haven’t contacted anyone for interviews. At this point, I’m not sure what their plan is....
