What’s on your mind?

I just think people should be given the choice. If you are doing your job to a satisfactory standard and are happy working from home then you should be allowed to. It won’t be for everyone but the choice should be there. These last 2 years have proven it can work.

Indeed it has. I just think many managers ultimately prefer to see their teams in an office 9-5. I let my team work where they like. Well not my warehouse team. They have to go in!

Why are HR and Recruiters, so awful at responding to communications? Even more so, if you have had an interview.
That's what's on my mind...

Seriously, they (HR and Recruiters) are awful at the moment. Rather odd really, considering the volume of position available these days...

When we bought a house I had seen the surrounding areas flood during periods of high rainfall, so I waited until the hilly area was developed. So far no problems in our area, but others have had a bad time.

There used to be a nice, old bridge across the river at a town called Windsor, in the NW of greater Sydney. The gummint tore it down, along with the Town Square, and built a new 'flood-proof' bridge. In the two years since it has flooded twice...

It has been quite sunny today. The back yard, which was under water, is slowly drying out.

The cat (<-- see left) who has been housebound for nearly a week disappeared outside early this morning and hasn't been seen since. Has probably found a nice sunny, dryish spot and is sunbaking.

I have a lot on my mind. Bought some small energy and pharmaceutical stocks today and they were doing pretty well. Bought some apple stock yesterday and it was going down lol. This is my first time getting serious with stocks and I hope I'm making the right decision. Wish I would've got into Crypto when the pandemic started but I seem to always get into stuff a little too late.

Paying both rent and mortgage while you prepare to move when in my physical state is difficult. My doctor is going on vacation for two weeks March 9th. His coworkers are competent for trigger points but I'm not sure they use ultrasound like he does. I'm lonely and my husband works himself to death. Both of those things are heavy on my mind daily. I cost too much.

I can't fix loneliness because I'm almost bed ridden. Internet is no replacement for being able to go out and be with others. To just drive again. My husband, after we've moved I pray he can take a small vacation. He, more than anything or anyone to me, deserves it. If I wasn't so ill, he wouldn't need to do this.


We meet a surgeon soon. Hopefully they can do the Neurectomy. If not, the search is on. The very difficult one.

Father, give us courage to change what must be altered, serenity to accept what cannot be helped, and the insight to know the one from the other. Amen.

I want to thank you, and any others, who had well wishes for me. I am scheduled for the Neurectomy the 22nd. Hopefully it all goes as planned. Sure I'll hurt for a long while both before and after the surgery. I just really hope once all is done, I can look back and know many were wishing me the best. So thank you.

The very BEST to you! 😃
 
Stick at an do what the Doctor tells to you to do! After my surgeries as kid when my bike was hit by a dump truck as kid! I was out for 6 months and had suffered 5 years of recovery surgeries! A kid benefit was having a fresh teacher home tutorship for over a couple of years! I ended up skipping 4th grade and then Graduating at the tender age of 17 then start College being 17!

The very best of luck with it; hope it all goes well, and be kind to yourself during the recovery process.
 
Septembersrain, I hope that the neurectomy finally resolves all the pain issues which have been plaguing you for such a long time. It will be good to get this done now before the nice warm weather sets in and before you move to your new home -- some good things to look forward to!

I just read how drive-ins are dying today and it disturbed me! I remember being a little kid and my parents want to take me to see Bambi on big screen1 the second movie was Jaws! I jukes my Mother and Father thought I would be asleep by then! However I said up and watched that film too! I also wondered whom taught up putting kids movie and Jaws as double feature was not the brightest idea!

Never been to a drive in. I don’t even go to the cinema these days. I prefer watching things at home. You can pause it to make a cup of tea and take a comfort break when you need to!
