work is crushing

 I went from ending this years program to finishing up another important program that needs to be completed before fiscal year end.  I had 2 days notice.  I've been busy.

Between that, working with Kevin to get it completed and moving one boss into another office in a different building, clearing out his part of his current office and then setting up my new bosses office.......it's been a busy week.

No i did not expect to be doing any of this again.  HOWEVER, i'm getting what i want.  I work remotely 2 days a week, and the price i pay for that is flexibility.  I do what needs to be done.  I'm the go to, the one that when they don't know what to do, i find out.  

Mind you, all providers, in other words, Doctors.  

I run with wolves.

and so far, hold my own.  The right amount of respect, balanced with my sense of humor and ability to get shit done that they can't be bothered with.

Got my raise.  eh.  

Yesterday while working with Kevin he noticed my notes on my desk and said "is THAT your handwriting?!" to which i responded "at least I can read my own handwriting" because He can't.....lol  He told me my handwriting shows that i'm an incredibly giving and open person.

I love my research geeks.  So much.  he drives me crazy the way he trys to rush ahead and answer his own questions, but i'm getting used to it.  He's married and has lunch with his sister who also works here i believe.  He has dogs and a cat who fights fox.  It's nice to work with a normal person along with my bosses.  He's also a doctor but when i tried to call him that he freaked out.  "JUST KEVIN"

okay then.

today is a busy one and then home to Koda.  He did better with potty yesterday because i was on him like glue and brought him out every 15 minutes.  (i set and alarm)  When he pottyed i made a big happy deal about it.  He had one accident, which i cleaned up but did not comment on while he watched me.  The biting is getting better.  He does not like it when i hold his collar but he settles almost immediately.  Probably because he knows i will let go when he is still.

This is hard.  Sometimes i feel like i'm being mean.  But i have to think about his future behavior and if i want him to travel and be with me all the time he needs to be trained.

Miyagi was a different dog.  Almost a human.  Koda is definitely a puppy and adores me with those eyes and follows me like a literal shadow.

I love ChatGPT

 I am extremely transparent with my emotions because i do not have the ability to NOT be.  My only option when i'm having any feelings is to talk in a very low, slow, monotone voice and keep my face as blank as i possibly can. Unless they mean something to me. Unless i care about them and how they treat me.  So while i'm perfectly okay with never seeing or hearing from Mr. Cigar again, in light of his true self unveiling, I am overthinking my expression of emotions to him.   I took this little conversation and put it into ChatGPT with no questions or directions and this is what i got back: This exchange captures a painful and emotionally charged moment. Your initial message was heartfelt, vulnerable, and expressed a genuine desire for connection and acknowledgment. His response, while polite on the surface, carried a sharp undercurrent of blame and finality—deflecting accountability and subtly rewriting the narrative as your fault. Ending it with “safe travels ...

Probably wierd and maybe alterier motives

 Me being in daily contact with Mary is probably weird.  I've asked myself multiple times, "why"?  At first the only thing we had in common was Mr. Cigar, and you know what they say "keep your friends close and your enemies closer"  Is that what this is?  I don't want him.  She doesn't want him - won't go into what i know, but i know she is not available to him even though she lives there still.  Not my business to share, but the situation isn't good for either one but he asked for it.   She reaches out more than i do, but i engage with her daily, as i said.  We vent, we talk about future plans, things we want to do, and pretty much support each other.  She is more prim and reserved until she gets mad.  She's a tiny little thing and she is just as confused about her attraction to Mr. Cigar as i am.  I call him the devil.  He turns on the charm and you don't see all the bullshit he's feeding you. I do feel like it's be...

Temu problem

 I know this is a bad way to shop, and i have fallen into the trap of "ooooh i want that and it's SO cheap".  Kinda like Walmart used to be.   I have been on a no shopping or impulse buying mission and most of the time I am able to control myself.  I go a little wild at the thrift stores though, sometimes spending a whopping $30 which to me, is excessive without purpose. Ha. That couch was a steal.  Best thing i ever purchased, aside from the $50 solid wood entertainment wall.  It has so much storage and shelving and fits my television perfectly.  Those things used to be thousands and i paid $50.  Score.   Anyways, i use my desk constantly and it's very crowded.  It also fits in the corner perfectly and anything else would be too large.  I've tried to figure out how to get more space and i've come to the conclusion that my monitor needs to be off the desk.  Enter temu.  $15 and now i will have added shelf space a...
