Happy Anniversary to us!


DIE, CAKE, DIE, on Flickr

I remember that! Happy anniversary!

To be topical about it: I'm so glad I was able to come out there for your wedding, and finally meet you (and meet your Ogre); thank you for inviting me! I'm not sure whether I actually said it before or not, but, TISI now.

Here is the place for pride, gratitude, pious rants and general happy, happy, joy, joy of life.

Dear me - good job on doing some work on your N.O.D. coursework for the first time in ages!

Dear me - even better, congratulations on actually finishing an assignment (it's a very great shame that I badly, and I mean badly mucked up the referencing of my sources, but that's just one of those things*).

*for anyone interested, they start out numbered, then part way through I felt I had to switch to lettering and by the end I'm using the phonetic alphabet!  This was after spending literally hours trying to sort the mess, and basically giving up!  Gee whizz what a palarver

Dear Manager,

Thank you for going to bat for your team so that we can continue to work remotely while the pandemic is still raging.

Thank you  for acknowledging the overwhelming stress and anxiety that the CEO's mandate to return to in-person work immediately caused... and for recognizing that caregivers can't arrange alternative care on an afternoon's notice... and that non-caregivers may need time to adjust routines that have been in place for more than a year.

And thank you for your empathy at our consternation when the CEO blamed of work-at-home for the company's current ills... and for recognizing that some of us actually perform better when we're not stuck in a drama-filled cubicle farm all day. 

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

There I said it... from my still-at-home office.
Aisling

I don't wish to be too excessively smug about this, but I currently have 3.5 blog posts written and scheduled, taking me to mid-February 2022 (posting them fortnightly) - plus another 2 on my personal blog, as well.  Go, me.

There.  I said it.

There.  I said it.

This was the week I learned that the skeleton song I learned as a kid (the toe bone's connected to the ...) is actually derived from a classic Spiritual song ... as usual with these things, the grown-up version is much cooler than the pared-down kiddie version.

I saw an American Kestrel up close today!

It had nailed a pigeon outside my workplace for breakfast (I've seen pigeon leftovers in that area before so I'm guessing it's a good hunting spot.) Never been that close to a raptor that wasn't trained before :D
