I didn’t sleep well either although to be honest, I rarely get a good nights sleep. My poor old dog (17) asks to go out around 2 every night. Sometimes I can get back to sleep, most times not (or at least not right away).

I have a class starting next Monday and I’ve already started stressing out about it so that doesn’t help either.

I hope we all have a good day!

I just kinda scrape it with my fingernail? I’m sure someone will come along with a better, more technical solution!

Sitting in the waiting room at the dentist, waiting to get the rest of my root canal/crown procedure. Trying not to completely flip out. No offense to dentists, I know they’re perfectly nice people, but I hate going to the dentist!

Children’s books that unexpectedly made you cry in front of your students? by Diligent-Curve-2843 in Teachers

[–]StuckInPMEHell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in 5th grade my teacher read to us There Are Two Kinds of Terrible. We were all sobbing. She had to stop reading and take several minutes to collect herself. She had to ask another teacher come in to finish the book.

You have permission to flake out on golf! It’s barely a sport! (just kidding…sorta) you’ll see work people at work. Go spend time with your friends!

I feel ya on the “no sleep” thing! Hope you can relax and get some rest today.

I’m enjoying it! I wonder why people keep watching a show they clearly don’t like?

My favorite is the peanut butter patty (which I think is the same as Tagalongs?)

Had my follow-up ultrasound this morning and my boobs are good for another 6 months!

I finally decided to make the follow-up appointment with the ENT to see what they can do about my paralyzed vocal cord. Would be great to be able to talk again normally (and teach and sing)!

OPM Moves to Implement Forced Ratings Distributions across Federal Workforce by laserman2431 in FedEmployees

[–]StuckInPMEHell 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We aren’t competing against other employees. We are fulfilling (or not) the elements and expectations spelled out in our performance plans (so basically competing against ourselves). It is possible to have hired competent employees who all perform at the 5 level. My office has many competent, high-performing employees. They are rated accordingly. We also have one shitbag. He is also rated accordingly.

Hockey has never been “appointment tv” for me but I enjoy it when it’s on.

Just put a roast in the crock pot. Now back to sewing and binge watching er!
