I'm just goint to bitch a little bit because its Monday, my dog gave me a fat lip with his head this morning, my shoes are giving me blisters, my boss just threw another position onto my workload, and I logged onto my bank account this morning and noticed I overpaid a bill by $1800! If I wasn't at work, I would totally be drinking right now (at 11:00am). Anyone else having a crappy Monday

Sort of. I'm in weekend-warrior type pain that no amount of NSAIDs will fix. I'm really tired from trying to sleep in strange positions to deal with the pain.
That said, my office manager called out sick today, but she is likely going to drag her stupid ass to work tomorrow, while she's still contagious.

Well it sleeted/snowed all day yesterday, so the roads are absolute crap and the windchill was -15 when I left for work. Keep in mind I am far enough south that the average high on March 3 is 55 degrees!

My Monday is actually going better than my weekend did (a puking child at 4am on Sat. is so not fun) Today's she's staying at MIL's and I had to run cough meds over there and deliver her portion of a craft to her school this morning.

I'm waiting for a dermatologist to call me back. I think I may have the freaking measles! And I suspect he won't want me in his office.
I had them when I was a kid. I had already been vaccinated against them, got a raging case anyway. When I was pregnant with DS, they said I had no immunity. So I was vaccinated again.
Measles have come to town. Cases are being reported in various parts of MA.
I have random spots that look like measles blisters and itch like hell. But they aren't appearing in the traditional fashion. There are spots on my hand, my arm, my chest, my stomach and my hip. Judging from the way I feel, I'm about to get blisters on my back, behind my right ear and on my right ankle.
And I was at a cheer competition yesterday and could have exposed hundreds of people because I didn't know.

I'm just really tired and on edge. My FIL is ready to die so we spent a lot of time at the nursing home Saturday and yesterday. He's on a lot of morphine to keep him comfortable, but it's just so weird to sit around and wait for someone to die. I really want to go home and take a nap, but we're going to visit him after work.
Malarky, I hope it isn't measles!

I thought court was 9:30 this morning. It was 9:15. It was already going on when I got there.
The "certified copy" stamp we've been using for over 20 years is now not sufficient.

Not bad. I've been crazy efficient at work today. I only took two breaks to check on YM, instead of taking multiple breaks from YM to check up on work. I decided that all telemarketers should be dragged out into the street and shot. (Hello Garfield!!! It is my Monday homage.) I don't want to go out but I have to go to the ATM to pay our daycare today. My house is not clean, because my husband did some major cooking last night, and every single time that man gets splatters in the most unusual places! And, I've been too busy at work to clean, which of course, makes me grumpy that my house is dirty.

DD's daycare was closed and I didn't get the message until after I'd gotten dressed, gotten her fed/changed/dressed, fixed her bottles, loaded us all up into the car, and made it about halfway to town. Good to practice the new morning routine, I guess, but it would've been nice to stay in my pjs.

Be of good cheer and full of hope. There are only 43 Mondays left for all of 2014. Also, there is only ONE April 15th this year(no thanks to the efforts of the IRS) And finally, everyone still has 296 shopping days till Christmas Eve!

Costco was a zoo this morning, but since my gas tank was on E, I had to fight the battle of the store too.
I did find out that my insurance will not cover my shingles vaccine until I am 59 (boo hiss.....especially since my step mom just came down with it), but the pharmacist said that since I was immunized against chicken pox for school, I should be ok (yeah, I did have chicken pox as a kid, but no proof of it so was required to be immunized for it). Otherwise, $186 for shingles vaccine.

I owe the IRS $39. I was SO hoping for a refund, even a tiny one. DD gets almost 3k. She owes 7k so she's not going to have much fun with hers anyway!

Picked up my tax returns today. I owe Feds $189 and state $418. That sucks but I knew I would owe and was $8 short of what I thought the final figures would be....

He's on a lot of morphine to keep him comfortable, but it's just so weird to sit around and wait for someone to die. I really want to go home and take a nap, but we're going to visit him after work. I am very sorry about your FIL. I know it is rough right now, but looking back it will be very meaningful that you were there for him.

He has ALS so we've had time to prepare, but now that it's here... still notneasy. Hubs is holding up amazingly so far.

My day was insanely busy. I hate that over half my monthly workload falls in the first week of the month. I bust my ass, then I'm bored.

I worked from home since we had snow and school was canceled. And I got my "monthly gift" today so I have been propped on the couch with a heating pad on my back. Yay for being a girl!

DH woke me early to tell me we had frozen pipes. Not sure why this pipe decided to freeze today - yeah, it is in the single digits, but it isn't very windy; it was much colder last week ( I think?). We got it unfrozen before DS5 got on the bus, put everything away. Water running fine, until I decided to bake some cookies. Get everything out again. I was trying to make cookies since it is the beginning of hell weeks (AKA musical crunch time) and beginning of track season. DS4 is basically at school until 9p.m., and his schedule is overloaded so he has no lunch; who thought it was a good idea to schedule the last 2 weeks of daily long pit practices immediately after daily track practices? And did I mention it was in the single digits? How do you run in 18" of snow (no indoor track)? My little guy is in the musical, too, of course. I really hate the late practices for the ES kids, but if they let them out earlier, then I have more running to do. Thirteen more days! ETA: Oh, I didn't know that the Munchkins were supposed to have their costumes TODAY. Now DH is miffed, too - Munchkin practice did NOT end at 7:30 as we'd been told. He spent over an hour waiting, then gave up and pulled DS5 out at 8:50. They were still going.

I got a sunburn today!!! Sent from my Nexus 4 using proboards I hate you. I got the drive from hell today due to 2 freaking inches of snow. Hello folks, it's SE Wisconsin. We've been having snow since what, Oct. 2013? It's not like it's the first snowfall of the year or anything.

Monday: I found out I am being transferred to a store in CT.
Fucking awesome (NOT). I can fight it but what would be the purpose: at the end of the day I will still be working for the jackass sending me there.
Time to really switch gears!
