[quote 5YearsLeft]@Toomanyradishes Oh gosh, I’m so sorry to hear about the coughing. There’s nothing more annoying than when you’re trying to get to sleep and then… another one sneaks up on you! The bastards.
@Rushhomeroad Bless you for taking the time to mark assignments. I’m sure it’s super bloody thankless sometimes, but where would we be if no one did it. Oh, it’s kind of a long bizarre story. I’m dying and I got divorced today. I’m still living with my husband, he still loves me, he’s still planning to take care of me until I pass on, but I now have permanent residency in the country we’re in and by divorcing me, he can marry my best friend and give her residency. Anyway, the judge wanted to ask questions because on paper it looks like he’s been too generous with sharing his salary (he wanted me to understand that he’s not ever leaving and this way it’s ironclad that he couldn’t pay rent without me anyway), but not generous enough with his pension (until we explained I’m dying, and then the judge looked at me with a super sad face, and it was all just awful). So yeah. Afterwards, I took some photos of flowers then came home and threw up. Life, eh?
@PlantingTulips Oh, that must be difficult! Do you have to still work regular day hours despite fighting against being normally a night person? My husband is also normally nocturnal; if we just left him alone, that’s how his body clock would set, I think.
@Missingjigsawpuzzle Oh no! Talk about a terrible surprise!
@Pieceofpurplesky Oh gosh, that must be so tough on the both of you. I do really wish we could move to the future where jobs worked around more than one type of circadian rhythm.
@Imissmoominmama Neck aches are so annoying! Have you tried putting anything warm on it, even a heated towel? That can help it relax.
@Whitegrenache Ah, rotten luck!
@Buzzer3555 Eek, and then I imagine you’ll be up later hearing about the massive falling out.
@Grandadwasthatyou Hmm. Maybe it’s just unfinished business, if you know he was bad for you? Sometimes we just need closure, and then we can let it go.
@Vanuatu My grandmother had terrible “white coat syndrome” - didn’t matter what kind of doctor, just seeing any of them stressed her. I know a lot of people feel that way, so I’m sure you’re not alone. I hope it goes well![/quote]
Yep! I have two small children so school runs, and a full time job where I'm expected to work at "normal" times of day.
I am permanently exhausted.
However, if they want to pay me for my most unproductive hours when I'm a zombie and let me spend the productive hours of 8pm-12am on my own interests, it is their loss.
Roll on retirement! (Long way off yet for me sadly).
