Four children under 7 would definitely have me longing for my peace and quiet!!
I made it home in one battered-feeling piece! I feel a bit bad because I’d told my housesitter I’d be home late tonight, and got back around 7, and she was still packing up and making dinner. But she and her gf finished packing up and took off and now Rory and I are on the couch.
Apparently my brother bought a last minute flight to Connecticut and is going to try to convince my dad to go to the hospital, but it’s looking like this may be it. I am a bad daughter but I really don’t want to fly out there to see him (especially if he’s not very with it). I did it for my mom, and was very glad I got to say goodbye. But not sure I need that with dad. But then I feel guilty.
Trust yourself on this meara. You don’t want your last memories to be fighting with him about getting care. Your brother can handle this. I’m sorry it is so hard.
I'm sorry you and your siblings are having to deal with this.
Hate being at work this week. Really should a wfh week for everyone who is capable to do so.

It's very rude of them to make you come in! Also, if you come in they should have donuts or pastries and get paid for faffing about.
I'm waiting for my friend to check in so we can go to breakfast.
Not crazy about WFH today, either , TBH. Going into the office tomorrow, probably, will find out if I hate that more...
DH's team just found out they have two use-it-or-lose-it holidays, so he's taking off tomorrow and Wednesday. Thurs. is off, of course. I doubt Friday will a banger workwise either, heh.
My company gives us a block of holiday time to use as we wish, rather than specific days off. This is kind of a pain when we don't automatically have Christmas off, but it is nice that I can work on July 4th and save that time for actual PTO.
I'm trying to use this time to complete my peer reviews, but I have a cold and my brain is not functioning. (Also, the company changed the way feedback works again this year, so there's no automatic "here's what you said last year" to crib from, which, I mean COME ON.)
What I really want is the option to leave a star rating but no review for the people I think are generally great but haven't worked with closely enough to write a paragraph about.
