Midweek hit hard, but I've finally fallen into routine, so yay, I guess?
Planning for our upcoming programs and functions feels like one dumpster fire after the other, but I'm dealing with them one at a time and delegating where necessary.
I feel that I can see that this year's resolution to stress less and be more mindful is definitely working so far.
I was a little annoyed earlier - my supe is going on convalescence leave, and instead of coming to debrief me, as per protocol, she went to my junior and gave her the debrief instead. It was a dumb decision, and I'm extremely offended.
To compound the matter, said junior later came to me to ask me what to do and how to do it. The petty part of me wanted to tell her to figure it out herself, but the part that loves my job wouldn't let me.
In other areas, my friend has started to call me Barbie, and while I don't see myself as much of a Barbie, I'm flattered that she sees me in that way. I think it's one of my favourite nicknames to date.
We've decided that we'll match eyeshadow looks for Eid, since we're so far apart and we can't match outfits.
A walk at the park is also being planned, as a low budget, Self-Care day out for the girls. We're still figuring out the logistics, but we aim to have one low-budget unwind day together per month. We can't control the stressors in our lives, but we can do our best to take care of ourselves and not get overwhelmed.
Hmm, I think that's about it. Fingers crossed, I'm hoping that Mr Crush will make a move soon - all this pining isn't healthy for me.
I was supposed to write a poem today, but I forgot my idea and now I just have to wait until inspiration strikes again, I suppose.
That's all for today - I'm going to bed. I'm pleased to note that enforcing Ky bedtime has been much easier this week.
