And the crepe myrtle is blooming again. Guess it’s Spring #5 here in
Texas? ::laughs:: Maybe I should go ahead and plant some lavender and
see if I can get it to grow before Winter hits (in like mid-December).
MUCH better day at work. I’m doing better with delegating tasks to
my staff so I’m not running myself completely ragged (and thus GRUMPY),
trying to be Wonder Woman and do it all myself. Starting next week,
each staff member has a day that they are responsible for ensuring that
at the end of the program day, all of the tables have been properly
wiped down, the floor has been swept, everything has been picked up and
put away properly, AND that all the pencils are sharpened and ready to
go for the next day. Hopefully this will help them take a bit more
pride/responsibility in their jobs and do their part to help me out.
::smiles::
Tonight was the first night in over a week now, that I didn’t have
excruciating knee pain when I got into bed. It even took me a while to
figure out what was DIFFERENT when I got into bed. My sciatica nerve
has been throwing one hell of a bitch fit this week and it’s really been
screwing with my knee. I need to ask Nicky (originally an OD friend,
but now a FB friend) what stretches she does to help combat the pain.
I’ve made it a point to spend more time on my feet at work (both at the
Tech Job and at the After School Job) than sitting down, and that seems
to have made an improvement. But I want this pain GONE. It sucks so
bad.
In other news, I am so fucking tired of PETA and the ASPCA sending me
a crap-ton of mail that address me as a MAN. It’s always MR. (birth
name). And I send it all back in their prepaid envelops, asking them to
remove me from their mailing list and to point out that I’m FEMALE.
Doesn’t change a damn thing. So I’m seriously tempted to gather
together all of my furs, bones, leathers, and feathers and do a selfie
buried under them. And to send THAT to them, saying that I’m NOT
interested in their fucking spam. ::laughs::
And it’s not that I don’t support the humane treatment of animals or
anything like that. I’m just tired of them sending me all this spam
mail (I have NEVER donated to either group and have NEVER signed up for
their mailings) and I really don’t enjoy being addressed as a man. I do
not have dangly bits – never have, never will, zero desire to be male
either. Though, it does make it easy to weed out the spam mail. 90% of
the crap I never signed up for will address me as a Male. And that
shit gets tossed into recycling asap OR sent back. I think from now on,
if it addresses me as a Male, I’m just going to write “Return to
Sender” on the mail and have it sent back, unopened.
