I need this so I'm starting the thread! Lol.

DS, who never wakes up at night, woke up 3 times because he rolled onto his tummy, can't sleep that way, and is too chunky to roll onto his back because he hasn't figured out he can roll the way he came. So I'm tired.

And I have to deal with a completely ridiculous situation where a chick in our department can't take personal responsibility for not completing her work and is attacking the department we serve because they pointed out she hasn't responded to their request that she review a 3 page document in over a month. I'm over here trying to build a good relationship with said department and their new leadership, and she's screwing it up. Her reason for not responding? They didn't give me a due date and my computer has crashed twice in the last month. Um, try you went on vacation for 2 weeks to Italy without doing your freaking job before you left.

I found out through Facebook this morning that my aunt passed away last night. I feel terrible. I'm sad that my dad lost another sibling, and I'm sad that I had to break the news to him and my mom this morning. I'm sad for my cousin, who was joined at the hip with her mom, and has been completely dedicated to her mom's well-being and comfort since my uncle passed away several years ago. She is single, no kids, and was so, so close with her mom. Her heart is broken.

What a sh!tty way to start the day. :-(

I have a cold and allergies. I took a sick day last week when I had this + a fever. I thought I was better over the weekend but am way miserable today. I cannot think quickly enough to do my job, I swear.

And DH will be out of town the next three weeks, but doesn't have a schedule. I need a schedule. I need to get sitters lined up for all the random parent meetings, kid events, etc. because I cannot do three kids alone. I haven't mastered being in two places at once yet.

@PrivacyWanted - thank you. It's hitting me harder than I would have expected. I've been so focused on other things, and though I knew she wasn't well, I didn't expect this right now.

I was put on the schedule at my second job (hospital) after I told them I couldn't work cause my husband is out of town for work. In addition, the grands that watch her are out of state on vacation. I've had to piece together childcare for today using a couple different people...taking her here, dropping her off there, someone bringing her back to the house, etc. My shift ends just before mid-night and I hope it all goes smoothly.

I had a new dementia patient this morning brought in to my clinic by transportation from the nursing home with nothing but a list of meds. Obviously, the patient couldn't tell me why she was there or what was wrong, and when I called over to the NH, no one was available to talk to me. Maybe they thought I could read palms or something. "Ahh...this crease here means that you need more Haldol."

I guess I didn't get the pixie dust that people seem to think gets handed out at the end of psychiatry residency.

I hate being new on a job. I'm on like week 6 and I still feel awkward and unsure of myself. It doesn't help that no one has ever had my role before and there's no job description for it so I'm floating in the breeze trying to add value and define my own role. My boss is all about broad strokes and not micromanaging which is great but I am wondering what I can do most days and how I can prove I deserve to be here, etc. It kind of has me on eggshells that they'll be all "oh, we really don't need this role, sorry" and I'll be axed. It's just an awkward feeling and I really hope it doesn't last much longer, but I'm not sure how it will end even with all my efforts to insert myself where I can and help where I can.

@alli2672‌ I'm the rehab director at a nursing home and holy crap that sounds like something our facility would do!! We are contracted to the facility we work in and most days I'm embarrassed to tell people the facility that I work at

I slept like garbage last night and not because of my kids! Just because I can't stop thinking about work, friends with issues, all the stuff we have to do everyday, LOL. The irony is both kids slept through the night LOL
