  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Attention What are you doing at the moment? 2024-25

Just finished breakfast. I had a piece of toast with butter, a slice of bacon, a small fruit cup and a cup of coffee. My sister won a small bag of flavored coffee and I decided to try it. I haven't made coffee in more than 10 years, but have bought it instead. My doctor recently told me that my blood sugar is a little high, so I didn't put jelly on my toast. It was already 75F when I got up. Happy Fourth of July everyone.
 
Preparing myself for some beauty appointments i have today because I have a date tomorrow and I want to get some dick
 
Just got back from my 29 minute walk around the block. I had looked up the city rec center on-line and they just had their regular hours listed, they did not have holiday hours. Then I called there and got the message to leave a message. I did not want to go there to read a sign on the door that they were closed for the holiday. It was 80F outside with 75% humidity, but the rec center is air conditioned. Well, I walked outside.
 
I am fucking exhausted.

Without my senior tech support, I am swamped with a torrent of projects.

So. Pinot Grigio.
 
Resting.

I peeled a few pounds of peaches and froze them. Made a peach dump cake with a couple of underripe ones. Made a big potato salad this morning early.

Going to be lazy tonight and just enjoy chii dogs.
 
Hiow the fuck do you have peaches?
 
Watching Jeopardy, browsing tumblr and drinking a iced green tea
 
I watched the fireworks display of my local municipality with a friend last night, and I'll have to say they outdid themselves this year-- they do it every year, and I've never seen them do one this spectacular. The thing is, we watched it in the park where they shot off the fireworks, with the usual crowd-- the local burghers, and all their well-fed kids and teens around. The thing is, my friend is elderly, and we were walking slow, and had to pull over on the side of a footbridge to let a bunch of impatient youths go by on the way back home.
 
Adjusting to loss.

My senior person has left after 25 years to go to a high paying contract position that I spent all those years equipping him for. The last three weeks have been very difficult. Basically I have left him to come in every day and gradually shut him out of all projects.

And because I felt that he handled the timing and the process behind my back so poorly, leaving me in the middle of a variety of health issues and absorbing a raft of clients and projects from a dead colleaugue, I had pretty much stopped talking to him a couple of weeks ago. Today the only thing I said to him was that he could leave his key on the desk when he left.

I think of the bad years during the recession when I paid all the staff and literally earned nothing myself from my business for a couple of years...and over the years I have given him a 10% + bonus,,,and this year I had reserved 20% (which I now don't have to pay him), but I know he is thinking only of his own future. From this position, which he will fill very well, I have no doubt that he will be able to go on to other major project management gigs.

And at the end of the day, he never seemed to be interested in partnership...although my rule of thumb was to pay out to him exactly what I earned from the work.


So very bittersweet today.

I realize that the other thing that strikes me to my heart is that I saw him through his confrontation with his alcoholism and recovery. Helped him save his career, his marriage, his family life...all of it. By behaving like a responsible, non judgemental Dutch Uncle.

Obviously I am happy that he emerged from the DUI charges and everything and went on to see his one kid in the NHL and his daughters in top universities and doing so well....but I just couldn't bring myself to tell him how much he had hurt so badly and that I wished him all the best.

In the end, I just feel like a parent let down by the successful kid they raised who betrayed them.

But I will recover. I am sure.

You’re looking at it the wrong way. You’re not his uncle or friend you were his employer. He owes you nothing because he was paid for the work he did.

I understand this more after working for someone for 30 years that felt like family. He sold the business without even telling any of us until a week before the new owners took over.

If you ever talked to him about the work like you have talked to us about it he may have just been getting out while the getting was good with the thinking he didn’t know how much longer there would be a job there.
 
Just got home from a date I had last night. Lets just say I didn't sleep at all last night wink wink
 
Finally getting around to vacuuming the kitchen today....it is in appalling condition with cat fur rolling up into tumbleweeds.
 
So between the kitchen and the gallery, we have one new kitten called 'Fuzz'.

I actually just brought in the shop-vac finally because the vacuum cleaner bag would just fill up too quickly.

Summer is defintely shedding month.

And now, I am cooling down and going for a nap.

I am still so sad that after COVID and bronchial pneumonia this winter, I have lost so much lung capacity and stamina.

I want to feel so much younger and stronger again.
