KateP's musings

  Yesterday ended well despite a chaotic committee meeting. We requested help for "Move in Day" on August 23rd, and initially, one person refused. After notifying Barb, the union steward , the person reconsidered with conditions, which we discussed further on the way home. Barb will speak to AC when she comes to the office next week. I finished my work early in the day which allowed me to do a few other things like updating job duties and writing here and correspondence that is important to send.  But it would be nice if I stopped telling on myself again. Bob finally gave me the help. He added a few more things to the request for the chair so now I need to submit it. I really don't want to

  t’s been an eventful week. After the CFO resigned last Friday, I shared the news with the committee after hearing it from Ann and Leslie. I’ve since felt some distrust within the office and regret discussing my concerns with a finance staff member, worrying about potential fallout. Anxious about the state chair request, I asked Bob for help; he’s reviewing the details and will guide me. We have a committee meeting today where we expect more updates, including potential contract news.

Despite paying for a window repair not yet completed, the gutters he supposedly said were cleaned still overflow like a waterfall, washing away the mulch. His intrusive personal questions have only added to my irritation. Regarding neighborly etiquette, I am concerned about kids riding bikes directly onto private driveways and front door areas. I would like to address this at the next board meeting, as I find it intrusive. Additionally, I find it quite "ballsy" that a neighbor parked in Liz’s driveway without asking for permission first.  That was during Sis’s stay at the nursing home. I've been reviewing my bills and emails. I have a large electric bill due soon and an overdue car emissions test. While my hot water tank, dishwasher, and laundry appliances are currently working fine, I need to sta...

  Once again this week  I have had some gastric issues.  Most recently today.   I am going to go through notes from Dr Sonia and find her suggestions gastro dr to replace the one who left.  I hope to get into Yale AND USE EPIc.  Hartford  health care has a different site.  We will see what happens. I finally  contacted the urologist  who was on vacation until Friday.   I explained what was going on and now I have an appointment at 3:15 Tuesday.  They haven't  canceled the one in October but maybe the will  next week  I tried to change my cardiologist  appointment on September 2.  It's late in the day. I was hoping to move it earlier that day but  l was unable to get it changed. I didn't get to meet with Debra. I believed she wouldn't  be available and I went to the meet up.  Subsequently she called and  she was available.  So we agreed to  meet in ten days to two weeks....
