General Update
I hardly ever have time to write anymore. So I'll play catch up.
Job Update
Things are decent. I still haven't gotten the hang of working all day and I still am not anywhere near making productivity, which is kind of a PITA. Some of it isn't my fault, as I'm on the core assessment team and therefore I am scheduled for assessments all day on Tuesdays and Thursday... so if they cancel I'm screwed. That gives me two days (M and W) to actually make my own schedule and see clients. I need more of them. Also, I have been doing some side projects at work WRT compliance with the Dept. of Public Health and it looks like I am on some sort of track to become the Clinical Coordinator. That would be quite nice, resume-wise and all of that.
But the bottom line is that my coworkers are nice. They will never be my coworkers from BCEI but they are nice.
Cat Update
Everything seems fine in that department. Daedalus is totally fine except for a shaved spot on his leg, and Fin hasn't tried to escape.
House Update
It is a disaster. I don't have time for anything anymore so I am basically living in a pit of nastiness which I /hate/. I am not really sure what to do about this. Also, the lawn really needs to be managed. We have put a deposit down with some contractors to do the work necessary to install the dishwasher that the previous owners said was "all set to go" but really meant "it's in the basement and you can't use it until you cut a hole in the cabinets, raise the countertops, and do all of the electrical and plumbing work." So umm, that's a hefty chunk of change, but hopefully when the dishwasher is installed, some of the mess will be manageable.
Punk Update
She is almost a year old! We need to do something about her birthday, like decide when and invite some family members or something. Also, she has finally gotten her confidence to cruise, like really cruise, going from furniture to furniture around the room. This means she does not want to nap, because she just wants to cruise around the crib and try to get stuff. Awesome.
Status Update
I'm feeling largely sad and disconnected from everything, and have for a really long time. Jen and I really have next to no interaction these days and it's incredibly upsetting and distressing to me. I feel liked and appreciated at work but not at home, and most nights try to keep as low a profile as possible and just do chores and watch mindless television, then try to sleep.
Father's Day Update
Yeah, that pretty much sucks. We are going to see my grandparents, though, which is nice.
Weather Update
It's a lot cooler today. It was actually chilly in the house this morning. Nice.
