The workday went okay at home.  No computer problems.  Yay.

I do need to learn how to communicate with my coworkers when I am remote.  They are not used to dealing with someone remote so when I ask questions they hesitate to respond.  I think it's because English isn't their first language so they don't like to put anything in writing.  Maybe I ( Read more... )

you've got those health concerns cut out for you
i guess it comes with time as our parents age
hope you find your way through the maze

i've been juggling staving off my face nerve pain, with getting rid of a cold, with all the other things i need to do
it's been an exhausting year

just like me, my computer equipment has become outdated no longer supported software
i feel broken and useless without my graphic toys, and supplements
it sucks to get old
ugh

the only positive thing is organizing my art studio again, it's about half way to becoming useful
can't wait !
are you still focusing at all on art?

Tonight I tried some maker art. Boy you do need to swatch the markers as the colors on the caps are nothing like the actual colors.

I figure when Dad has his surgery I will we tied to the house as he recovers so I am planning to get back to my watercolor.

god yeah, and when it goes away, it makes me paranoid it may return again
i've found the causes, and ways to prevent and treat them
but the kicker is cold damp fucking winter
that's a killer, i cover my face from the wind

it's been rehumanizing to just sit here in the studio wondering what to do next
i've rarely had that kind of freedom, there's often an agenda, like paying rent

oh, yaaay! good to hear you're back at is, just in time for christmas
all those lucky customers

can you get time off with pay to help look after him?
some companies have good group insurance policies that include family

I don't know if I have been there long enough to qualify. The boss has given me a laptop so I can work at home. I haven't talked to the boss much about it because I know she is disappointed that I cannot train myself and she doesn't want to come in to train me.
