I'm all about the meetings...

I had three scheduled for today.  That's right...three.  On a Friday.

Yes, I do believe scheduling those is a form of self-harm.

One of them was scheduled for earlier...but I moved it because I had other important things to do first...

And the one later afternoon was cancelled due to someone else's scheduling issue...didn't much like that guy before, but I do now.

In order to move these things along I have some plans.  Did some pre-meeting communication with key people...

And have my trusty go-tos in case things go awry...

I love that Ron Swanson quote! Today is messing with my head because it's April 15th, tax day, only not really because of the holiday, and yesterday my boss asked me if I would work today (usually have Fridays off), and I said yes, only to call and cancel because I'd forgotten that my child doesn't have school today. And now there are two different children asking to come play at my house.

So yeah, hope those meetings go smoothly and that you can come back and have meaningful discussions with us soon!

There is a fair and equitable distribution of work between my two bosses and me.  Boss 1 does presentations.  Boss 2 goes to meetings.  I sit at my desk and write instructions and 'how tos.'  As long as I do not have to meet or present I'm happy.

Meetings over...let the real work begin.

Also, I hate Skype.  And I decided I don't think I drink enough.  Those are unrelated thoughts.

Clearly, they're related. You probably just need to drink while skyping to enjoy it more.

Mr karma flew from Melbourne, where he'd been for meetings since Monday, to Singapore on Thursday night, arriving at his hotel at 1.30am. He phoned me last night - he'd had 7 meetings in one day, starting with a breakfast one at 7.30, ending with a dinner one which finished at 9.30pm. He's the one speaking though, so no breakfast or dinner for him. He did have time for a sandwich at lunchtime. He was pretty much saying the same as your "the amount of meetings is too damn high" meme.

 Luckily he didn't ask me what I'd done during the day - a leisurely walk along the beach with a friend, yummy Thai for lunch, another walk with our dog walking neighbours.

      It's also possible Joy was there and requested not to be photographed.

      That was a dreadfully extreme reaction and yes therapy needing or she's among the 1 percent of most selfish people on earth.  Joy has PPD and is getting therapy.  I can see where she mighht not go to the funeral, but support Jill in other ways.

      "Very thoughtful and intentional updates".  That's a load of bullshit.  She wanted her kitchen redone and they were willing to spend six months in a rental to have it just like Braggie wanted it.  If she'd really put thought into it, she would have arranged the kitchen so that it was more child-friendly.  She could have actually had the kitchen designed so it would be easier to prep for meals and clean up afterwards.  I see nothing like that.  It's just new knobs, distressed painting, and old furniture.   (That distressed green door is making me nuts.)  Where are the pull-outs for pan storage?  What about, you know, rounding the damn corners so your little boys aren't always cracking their skulls on the corners as they skid around the kitchen?  What about comfortable seating?  What about a pantry that's closer to the kitchen counter?  What about making the daily dinnerware easier to put away and not using shelves in the kitchen to display your mismatched bowls and cups?  And why is there a bandanna hanging right near a stove burner?

      Didn't she call them "twinbies" as a portmanteau for twin babies? Those are not babies anymore and haven't been for a while. I'm probably just being BEC about this but I do wonder if they'll be babied for as long as Janessa Rodrigues is.

      Yes, they will.  The girls are twinsies and the boys are twinbies.  Abbie thinks that's cute.  She mentioned in a story yesterday that she had to clean some poopy diapers so the boys are nearly four and she still isn't toilet training them.  They will stay babies for a couple more years.

      More proof she has a shopping problem. She sells stuff all the time. Therefore you don’t notice how much she constantly buys.

      More lies d from Braggie. She constantly complained about her concrete counter top because it was always chipping. She also complained about the paint on the cabinets chipping as well. She has been wanting to redo The Whole kitchen for awhile and a total gut job was not necessary at all. She lies as much as she breathes.

      I have to add she got two new dishwashers, a new giant fridge and a new $12,000 stove/oven. I’m sure they weren’t broken by the “flood.”
