Work Stuff

Here are some happy things from today:

  • At work last night, I happened to be in the right place to ask questions and I learned a few new things about how we process packages.  Previously, I didn't feel comfortable enough to ask that kind of question.  I'm glad I can now.
  • I was also able to talk with other employees about being safe at work.  That is a new thing that members of the Safety Committee are doing.  Every quarter we will talk to all the employees about ways to stay safe.  It was a nice break from the normal routine.
  • At home the lilacs are a little closer to blooming and there are more leaves on the trees.  It has been raining today.  Everything has a wet, clean look.

Currently listening to: The Body Keeps the Score, by Bessel Van Der Kolk. 

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.

Happy Wednesday things: Yesterday, I forgot to write that I am the Safety Committee Member of the Month.  This means I have the number one parking spot at work until the end of June. On Monday I started to consider the reality that my car gets really hot in the sun.  This prompted me to consider ways of covering the gear shift knob.  Rather than spending money, I decided to use an old sock.  Before going to work I pulled down my basket of unpaired socks.  I found a holey pair and one of them is now over my gear shift knob.  The other half of that pair is in the car waiting for a purpose.   It works for now.  I should stitch it. And, I took the time to look for matches and have put away NINE pairs of socks.  These tasks took time, and almost made me late for work.  Good thing I have the prime parking spot!  😉 I like socks... After work I went looking through my piles of boxes in an attempt at downsizing, or at least sortin...

Two happy things from yesterday that I forgot: I finished listening to The Book of Margery Kempe.   It gave me some insight on life as a woman in the middle ages, though not as much as I'd hoped.   It did mention that she visited Julian of Norwich, and so I am revisiting Julian with the book I started listening to today. With some of the raspberries we picked yesterday Keziah made a sekanjabin.  She also made a lemon-mint sekanjabin.  Here is a random site with a recipe for reference purposes.  I don't know what Keziah used for a recipe, and the link I posted is a different flavor.  Today my happy things include: While out and about this morning Keziah noticed a cloud that looks like it has a hole in it.  I got a picture, but there are lots of wires in it. Keziah and I got the tent out of the storage unit.  That puts us one step closer to being prepared for camping this weekend.   Some packing for the weekend and the errands I...

Here are some happy things from this Friday with flurries: As I write this, I have decided that I need sleep more than I need the money and I am not going to volunteer for a shift tonight. Instead of sleeping this afternoon, I watched this season's last episode of The Rings of Power . Had I slept, I could have gone in for a few hours. I'm happy to stay home instead. All year I have been getting email reminders to get a new pair of work shoes. The company pretty much pays for one pair of shoes if we buy them through Zappos and don't spend too much. I don't remember the allotment amount. Today I finally ordered a pair to replace my current ones. They should be delivered right after Christmas. While I was sitting watching things this afternoon, I heard what sounded like a plow go by. I was surprised to see that it was, in fact, a plow going by and it was snowing. I knew it was supposed to snow, I just hadn't noticed it. Later, when I went outside there was ma...
