All you can do is love them as if they did not have Alzheimers.

Allergy season needs to end. I feel like I’ve been hit by a Mac truck right in my sinuses. I can barely keep my eyes open and there is nothing I can take as my doctor wanted me off any allergy meds for 10 days before I get my first allergy shot next week.

Back to bed I go. I hope the pounding in my face stop soon.

The family pup passed about a year ago, my daughter took it particularly hard. Today she found his collar with all his little tags on it that I keep hanging on the coat rack. She took it off the hook and shook it, immediately sent a chill through my body hearing the jingle again and my face must have dropped as my eyes started to perspire ever so slightly.

"I'm sorry daddy, did that make you cry too?" Says the little one.

It did, but she need not apologize. All the memories came rushing back in an instant. I don't deserve them sometimes.

Amen. I've been pretty good mostly. Today I was telling my daughter that pup was the best secret keeper I ever knew. He knew all of my secrets, every single one, and he never told a single soul. That always gets a smile out of her.

That is the most 'adorable' problem to have....

Name? Boy/girl??

Shes my 14 year olds 4 month old puppy. Idk if she even should have gotten a puppy. Not really responsible with the pup.

That's some crazy massive hail! Being in a tropical zone Queensland tends to get some more volatile weather than we do down south, including some pretty full on storms - closest thing we have to a Florida or Louisiana I guess.

Went to sleep specialist yesterday. I'm going to have a home sleep study- insurance will not pay for hospital test because I don't have other, underlying health issues that might be causing it such as asthma, COPD etc.

Then I went to see my GP. My blood pressure is much better, finally down to 130/85. He said I was very lucky not to have had a stroke when I had heat exhaustion/dehydration because at one point my BP was 270/90. It's taken awhile to get it back down and I will definitely be making a stronger effort to keep it that way.

HR is not a punching bag. Please remember that.

Make a daily habit of telling at least one person you work with how wonderful of a job they do.
It will change lives.


Might even change yours

Fall colors have become very vibrant here in SE MA over the last week... Like driving through a Norman Rockwell painting. The party is over though, turning colder next week

I really need to see my HR person. I have been treated not so nice last few weeks.

for example I exit the bathroom yesterday and see a supervisor 50 feet away hands in his pocket staring at me.

later I was questioned about my bathroom activities. Sounds illegal. Can I not shit in peace?

HR is really there to protect the employer first and not so much the employee. I always see them as a biased mediator. They try to resolve things fairly but if S hits the F they're protecting the company first

A lot of companies have moved past this old school HR approach and have finally started to utilize the area in a more strategic manner. Paying huge dividends for those places.
