Not Quite Exhausted
Last night at pharmacy was horrific. We had two designated hitters, a tech and a pharmacist and barely kept our head above water. The other DH was supposed to be on the sales floor. The shift lead in charge of that only had one other CSA. She was pissed that four of the the six…

Believing in Something
There’s an old adage that goes: if you don’t believe in something you will fall for anything. Some people believe Jesus Saves. Some people believe that It Takes a Village. And some people believe in self reliance. They all have merits. But when it comes right down to it I believe in something else. I…

On Being Grateful
What positive emotion do you feel most often? While I want more out of life I try to cultivate an attitude of gratitude. I have a family that loves me. I have a place of employment that is safe and clean even if it is a little bit nerve wracking. I have a very short…

Diapers, and Lightbulbs, and Boys! Oh My!
It’s way too early in the morning for me to be so awake. This is becoming more typical. My youngest son asked for a diaper so I got out of bed. I changed him and he really needed it. His brother was hovering so I changed him too even though he did not really need…

Sacrament Meeting was pretty bland. A member of the stake high council and his daughter spoke. Both talked about how…

Weekend “Off”
I don’t go into Walgreens this weekend. That means I have more time to work with the kids. That’s not really a free weekend but I don’t have many responsibilities past keeping them regulated. Sometimes I need regulation too. When I was working on the sales floor at Walgreens it was usually very regulating. If…

Days Off
Pharmacy wasn’t too bad today. Busy but not bad. We only had a few customers that didn’t have a satisfactory experience. But I’m home now and tomorrow is my day off. And the next few days off too. At least from Walgreens. As I’ve said caregiving is 24/7. But home has been decent too. Except…

Merry Monday
Today has been better so far. My youngest woke me up early for a diaper that he really needed, but I was able to fall back asleep. I’ve been awake for a couple of hours now and there have not been any crisis or meltdowns. I did accidentally step on the cat. She has been…
