Rough, got laid off last week my sister is going through a divorce on the other side of the country
Had to put my cat down on Monday. She was with me for at least 18 years. That morning was rougher than I expected. I’ve lost several pets and all four grandparents without shedding a tear, but this was much harder.
I put on a youtube video of birds for her to watch, as I had many times before. Seeing her watching it as if she wasn’t feeling sick, knowing it was my last day with her, it fucking broke me.
Already off to a better start than last week. Last week my 1 year old tested positive for Covid. My wife and I both got it, but had to suffer through while parenting. By the time the three of us recovered, my 3 year old ended up getting it. Seems we’re all finally healthy again to start off this week.
My sleep has been horrible this week… more than usual. To pour some salt in the wound, I paid $17/pill for a sleep med not covered by my insurance that has not yet helped. (luckily only 10 pills)
Great job review, but no salary adjustment despite additional role and responsibilities. I’ve saved the company half a million dollars a year, it would cost them nothing. No thanks.
Judge gave me permanent guardianship of my almost teenage niece. She’s been with me 18 months now. It’s about time.
Could be worse. My DND character is in a precarious spot until next week and has a chance it could do very poorly.
I’ve also only had meetings at work today and I’m hiding under a blanket on my couch before this next meeting in 1 minute.
Looking forward to getting some better sleep and getting some gaming in later.
