challenges
Nov. 19th, 2019 12:24 pm- ty does NOT love being in 8th grade (from 6th), but mostly that's because his 'fellow' 8th graders are kinda a-holes so far. He doesn't want to identify with them. I think he's also scared that it's too hard but he admits the coursework is ...not that bad. He did some geometry last night with no trouble. He kinda likes health class, wherein they were learning about STDs, and I saw on his worksheets he put asterisks in some of the inappropriate words.
- I was losing my GD mind about our database yesterday because you cannot bulk-import emails into a 'list.' You have to do them manually? How...? This is tech support telling me this, mind you, it's not me misinterpreting. I learned what our people have been doing as workarounds and I needed a minute, i caught the vapors.
- Dan had to work remotely from 11 pm to 2 am last night. But, he's still able to do this.
- I dreamed that i was at my old job, doing great, amazing exciting things, and then sadly realized that i don't get to do them anymore, and in the dream I told 'uncle roger' that I made the wrong decision. So i had the tears, and the feels, this morning.
- Also i had the tears & the feels on Sunday because Ty's been a moody pre-teen. But he was 'himself' again and rides with me in the morning and chats with me so I don't miss him so badly.
- I am WAY out of my element with exhibit interpretive planning so i end up on these calls feeling very stupid and trailing off mid-sentence. Oh well.
- I'm working on some other complicated 'marketing/development/fundraising' stuff.
In sum, everything is challenging but not impossible and I'm homesick and i guess challenges are good to distract my sorry ass.
