ianukRealized yesterday I need to make a meeting on my weekly calendar to have a BS session with my work mentor since both of us are running around with trying to keep all of the plates in the air and have them spinning the right directions and having to catch things that are new plates constantly. I feel like a ping pong ball.
I'm also super duper annoyed by our drawing check people and i'm attempting to write up a nice letter without using bad words that I'm disappointed in the crap they aren't catching. Simple things like the legal statements on the drawing don't match the contract and we added a part and its no where on the drawing referenced/called out. I know check is a hard job...I never want it but this simple stuff should have been caught and why am I the one who catches this stuff.
What was even worse is I had a guy call it up the chain of command that I am raising a stink about nothing when in fact I'm right. This wasted everyone's time. By the end of yesterday I was achey and my shoulders were to my ears and the headache I'd been holding at bay all day was threatening to shift to a migraine. Ugh. So I made dinner and then was a lump on the couch. Mel wove and we watched TV. The British Museum has a YT channel and we watched a lot of things from the "Curator's Corner" series. I'm tickled with the Curator who is Dr. Irving Finkel. Such a hoot!
I ended up having a couple of G&Ts with some St. Germain since everything hurt and I'd hit the ibuprofen limit of the day. I finally relaxed a bit and got a shower and slept okay. I'm trying to force myself to not scrunch up while working.. Even when standing I'm putting things shoulder high...ugh.
So today is work with a big presentation and then the gym...I hope to have some energy to paint a bit. Wearing my compression gloves and trying to keep stretching. I think letting my hands sit and swell isn't good so a bit or movement. Not too much but hopefully it will work. I want to get back to some art.
