So Much. And Yet... in These Foolish Things

Still marching in place.

I’m happy it’s Friday, but my China trip is fast approaching and I’m getting really stressed. So is my staff. I’m afraid they’re all going to quit on me.

One of my assistants actually came to me, tears flowing, showing me the hair that she’d lost in clumps due to stress. She has bald spots! Granted, the stress is actually from personal issues, but of course it is affecting her work. Her doctor even recommended a leave of absence, but she doesn’t want to sit at home and worry - she’d rather come into the office and do stuff to take her mind off of it.

Another of my staff came to my crying because her friend had been in a car accident and is paralyzed. She’s taking time off of work to try to help her friend and still trying to work a full, full time job.

Negative C, now that’s a story in and of itself. She is so depressing to work with, yet she is the most qualified and knows a lot more things than I do about the actual operations/guts of my business. She has to stay - if she left, I’d be sunk. Unfortunately, she knows this - or at least thinks she knows this. Yeah, I’d have to really dig in hard if she left (which, she won’t…), but I would make it work.

Still, China is looming and it’s my most stressful time of year, two times a year.

My puppy continues to rock my world and I love her so much! What a life changer she has been. I’m so lucky that there are people at work who love her too! She’s all over the place and everyone is so willing to take her for a while so I can attend meetings and get work done.

Meanwhile, there’s the Bulldog. Sigh. I am so weirdly crazy about him. Saw him all last weekend - he took me to a concert and a party and even went with me to my parents’ for Mother’s Day. Cray. And now, we are on the brink of another weekend and I’m planning on seeing him.

He’s my BF without having the title. My weekend lover. I’m getting tired of that, and yet, I like it. What is wrong with me?

OH! Had dinner with a girlfriend the other night and we exchanged Tinder stories. We are matched up with the same guys! I think I made her jealous because her matches were actually contacting me. Yeah, for the first time since we’ve been friends - she’s always been the one to get the attention. Finally, something is kind of going my way…sort of.

Anyway, back to work. Hectic and spastic! Have a great Friday!

LOVE YOU!
GS
