Been away to TN for transplant followup. All good, a bit more medication tinkering, finally taking something away.  Here's hoping I haven't got to add it back again.

Addition by subtraction, si and whee Eh ma'am!

Not getting up before noon is even better, si Eh ma'am.

No action up there in a few hours, which is odd

Hopefully they'll return to normalcy soon and quell your anguish, si Eh ma'am.

Mrs. T-B. finally got the door-lock on the Mrs.-T-B.-mobile repaired today, $Many man.

Upon hearing this news, we replied, "You've got a lock on it," supportive we man.

Can't they find either buttcheek with both hands plus outside help, huh Niki-B. ma'am?

Welcome to the position of Savior of the Business, si Niki-B. ma'am.

 

(We have innumerable testimonials from businesses who saved old members and recruited new ones after the installation of pre-owned toilet seats, thought we'd add this tidbit man.)

No it's just young.

Work has strangely turned from "OMG GET NEW MEMBERS" to "OMG SAVE THE OLD MEMBERS".  I've been trying to tell them for 2 months that we can't shut off the old system because I have members that haven't come in to change their payment info over.  I didn't have phones until a week ago! I wasn't staffed until a week ago either.  This business is like, hurry up and wait.  NOW RUN!!!!  and stop. 

So I guess I"m in charge of calling the old system.  And they have no idea who I am.  And why the F didn't we do this the FIRST time?

 

In today's business environment, it's no longer the big eats the small", but rather  "the fast eats the slow"

Yah, well, no.  Weather radio kept going off with thunderstorm warnings.  Feel as though I didn't sleep at all.

 

I don't think they can return to normalcy just yet. She is still in lock up. There was a further raid up there at 2100 last night. In spite of there not being a single light on up there, the cops descended in their number again. I had just taken the dog out before bed when they started roaring down the road. There was someone in there, there always is at least one person inside. This time they arrested an older male, and towed a vehicle.  He's got  some drug charges, and a charge of possession of firearms by certain persons.

Sounds like you can earn some (perhaps Many) extra bucks as a snitch for the police or as a stringer for the local newspaper, si Eh ma'am.

 

When you get the chance, ask the visiting officers if that casa is equipped with pre-owned toilet seats, perhaps a need there man.

I beg your pardon? That stuff was all publicly available the same day, on the local sheriffs app and online.

The Troll's teacher thinks he may have ADHD or something else going on. School has been difficult for him. Today he hit and pinched her. ☹️ I haven't seen him ever get physical like that, but maybe he's reaching some sort of breaking point at school. She's very sweet, so I'm sure it isn't something she is doing wrong. 

 

Him being an intense and difficult child is nothing new, and I had a hint of suspicion that he might have ADHD already.

Did the Dane find school difficult at a young age?  Is it possible to have him wait a year?

I would bet hitting and pinching out of frustration with all the changes that are relatively new. You working plus school is a lot for the littles.

It is only pre-K at 2-3 days a week. He's already towering over the other kids...so, I'm not sure it is in his best interest.

Then you can sell the drug-casa (and the sheriffs, and online readers) some pre-owned toilet seats, income Eh ma'am.

Smells like something's burning in our office, perhaps wiring man?

Any insights on how to explain divorce to a Many(2x2x2)-year-old, huh man?  One of the parents is concerned, concerned parent man.

Ah ok.  Well he will learn.  As Ontarkie said, it's hard but since it's pre-k it's probably better to get used to it now than in Kindergarten.  It's just a lot of change and learning to deal with anger now, only helps him in the future.  (as an angry person I can commiserate with him.)
