Morning
Yesterday was a no Spender. Today who knows
Ice maker quit working, WTF. I am hoping it's just a plugged screen. I need to pull the fridge it see if I can do it or call someone. It seems like it's always something

Morning Ners and ATF 🌞
Boo in broken ice maker.
Tootles, I LMAO at the first grader comments!
AZ, have fun! I don't use Tapatalk, just a browser window on my phone.
Spiff, I have to get my CPR stuff too, waiting on Red Cross to confirm scheduling. But my company pays for it.
And Amen to BAC not caring about anything but the Almighty $.
Off to another day in the salt mines.

Morning all.
Yesterday was a no spender and today should be as well. I scheduled way too many calls for today - regretting that now.

Good morning hotties. It's 32 degrees now but will warm up to a beautiful, clear, calm 68 degree day. Bring on the sun! I need some vitamin D.
DH is picking up the materials to build my emergency pantry! *hops* I'm ready to get that space back in order so I can prep, prep and prep!

Hey Hotties!
I'm still playing catch up. I got mail/bills/paper taken care of and we got 2 returns done last night. $60 back to me, the rest to DH. Today will be more returns and cleaning. Our realtor is coming by this afternoon to help us decide when to put the house on the market.

Hey pockets.
DH managed to lose a CC before we left for Chicago and it didn't turn up at the hotel or the food truck he stopped at or in the car we had at the airport so I cancelled it and new ones are on the way....now to change over the autopay stuff once I have the new #
Work is still stupid. SHOCKING I know. 281 work days - assuming I take the PPTO I have mapped out through July 2025 and that's without burning some sick time hours occasionally since that doesn't get paid to me when I leave.

could you make him do all of the cc calling? He did yesterday after we go home and it wasn't in the car under the seat or in the dirty laundry bag we had left in the car when we flew out Friday.....

Today has been spendy - $54 at the salon and $68 at Petsmart for food and treats. I need to stop feeding the dog all the lunch meat and ham I’m giving her to reduce her sodium. I bought several different kinds of food to see what she’ll eat.

Sitting at night school, and bored. I have essays to grade, but I'm not in the mood. CPR last night wasn't too bad. There were 3 of us there, and I was home within 90 minutes. The worst part was watching all of the videos. That took way too much time.
DD and I are going to Sam's when I leave here to get snacks for the boys and other stuff. I'm hoping to get out of there under $200, but it's unlikely.

sherrydorlando2, I want a deviled egg. spiffit, glad CPR wasn't too bad. bensgirl1, what a PITA about the lost CC. tootles, I was wondering how long you would go without a prepper pantry. Jels, lunch meat and ham is expensive dog food. spicy, I take it work wasn't too bad last night. Waving to Hotness77, Gypsy3n8, prinlea2000, annhtx, and grovers39. I order my K-cups from a company out in California. They have a 2-day earth day discount of 20%, so I ordered 120 for $50.40 + free shipping. Excellent deal. Works out to 42 cents per pod. Great tasting coffee and the pods are compostable.

Hi Hotts,
I agree - work is stupid. I'm mostly just grumpy because I need a vacation.
Also, I got a text from my Dad's pastor saying how I needed to come see my dad as soon as possible because they are worried about him - I guess he is dizzy a lot. I have two sisters that are a lot closer than I am. I don't know why it has to be me. I am actually ignoring it. I call him on a weekly basis as do both my sisters. Dad's the one that chooses to remain where he is and as long as he is mobile, he won't stay in assisted living. He also won't live with any of us. I'm not uprooting my live and leaving a well paying job to be his caretaker. Frankly, if his pastor is so worried about him why doesn't he do something. Grrr. End of vent.
I had a coaching meeting today (i was the coachee) and as I was filling out my worksheet before the meeting I had the realization that it feels like my team takes advantage of me. Probably because I let them but I will be changing that PDQ. I also have an overdeveloped sense of responsibility that comes into play. For so long I was everyone's back up: I jumped in and helped out whenever they needed it. They are still treating me like I'm just another member of the team and not the manager. I will be changing this as soon as I possibly can because I cannot continue to be just another member of the team AND do all my own work.

sheshyone that was some good awareness/reflection on your part. I fully support the change you are about to make. I also get it…you want to be the go-to person. The reliable person. The one who always come through. I have noticed that if you are the only one who cares, people get used to it and then take advantage.

((( sheshyone))) it's so hard when life/work/family balance is so off kilter. It's awesome that you recognize this and are taking steps to not be taken advantage of or spread too thin. A Ukrainian Refugee family moved in a few houses down. I've seen the couple walking with their baby in a stroller and waved. They wave back. I could tell they were a little bashful because even though they wave, they look away real quick and never speak. I just learned they recently relocated here due to the war. He is working on a ranch. I wonder what they think about this little town. It's far from the USA they see on TV. They don't have a car. I'd like to offer to take her to the nicer grocery store in the next town while he is ranching but I don't know if either one speaks English. It's so quiet here. I imagine they feel at peace and safe. I hope so. I can't fathom going through what they must have went through to finally find their way here from death, destruction and bombs being launched at them. My heart goes out to them.
