I Don't Want To Go To Work Today

The thing about only having 10 sick days a year is that you have to plan how to use them which you are not supposed to do because they are sick days and you are supposed to use them when you get sick. So what happens when you fit the definition of sick but could easily take more than 10 sicks days? Hum. Tough one.

Technically due to my situation I could be sick all week and all next but instead, I find myself only being able to take one day yesterday and one day Friday when I may or may not have to check into the hospital pending Thursday's test findings. If I use all10 days this month I won't have anything left for whatever may happen in the next part of the year. And considering what has already happened I better save some days.

So that means I need to suck it up and go to work today and have a million people ask "How are you doing?" Is it okay to say, "I am doing fucking shitty, thank you?" Probably not. What is worse is that we have our huge conference this week. Career wise I should be talking to everyone but instead I am trying to figure out ways to avoid everyone so I don't hear those dreaded words.

Today I am avoiding a big day by staying in my office as everyone will be off location so hopefully today won't be too bad. Tomorrow I just have to get lost in the crowd. Man, I can't believe I am actually thinking about how to get lost in a crowd at 7:30 in the morning. Man, this sucks. But at the same time I want everything to be over so I can start fresh and never have to think about January 2011 ever again!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
