also expecting to be too busy to pop in today but if it's really bad I might force myself to actually go on away for a few minutes around lunch and peek in
work has been a drag today but definitely not as bad as it could be, so I'm thankful for that. apparently yesterday was wild when I was off (I'm so sad, can you tell? lol)
like I've known since she put in her retirement last year (because all the insanity in healthcare really drove home how badly she was ready to get out and retire) and knew it was August but it still feels like wow, how's it already here
the drunk my step-father gets disability but who knows what he spends that on, and I'm sure he already blew through his inheritance from when his mom died late 2019
definitely going to start back on poking about getting a door or something to the basement, because if I'm staying remote (which that's my hope and we're supposed to find out in the coming weeks which of us at work will be remote/hybrid) then I need to be able to cut down on the bullshit noise from upstairs during the workday
like, I will fucking pay for it if I have to, enclosing the stairs or a partial wall across half the family room, whatever. I can't create a proper office but fuck's sake, at least give me this
my mom is fairly liberal but she's got a bit of that "well it was hard for us and we made it work" type attitude with something and just no. also that tone is wanting to set me off even though it's not directed at me -.-
also now paranoid the sump pump isn't working after the storm last night. yay I totally wanted to stress for no reason tonight despite making it thru work with minimal stress
didn't sleep much or well last night and kept having flashes of fatigue during the workday today; initially I was gonna try and sleep by 9 tonight in hopes of "catching up" (ha)
