HI Fockers, I'm Baaaaack!
So the last few weeks have been crazy, I need to go find a Kristel update to get caught up here....
So I think I posted we had a layoff a few weeks ago, well I ended up with a new boss under the re-org and I am soooo not happy, the guy is an arrogant SOB, just makes decisions with no input and not really understanding the situation. I have been taking on more clients and have found out my client load is increasing 6x. Yep, I have will 6 times as many as I did last year, and I get 2 more staff members, yeah, that will help. Nobody is happy and all are feeling completely overwhelmed. I just don't know how we are going to be successful.
I guess they figure with the job market in the tank people will stay put and they can get away with this.
Then I threw my back out. I think because my posture was off because of the way I was walking due to my foot I pulled the muscles on the right side upper back. At one point it took me 10 minutes to get out of bed
Foot is doing much better, but no one told me what happens when you have nerve damage and they start healing


OMG!!!! FIRE!!!!!!! That's the only way to describe when the nerves start to heal. I mean it's good, but OMG! FIRE!
Then yesterday I had my youngest nieces first communion. NOw the brother that is her father DB2 is the opposite of a planner, which has always bugged me.
His wife mentioned in an email about a month ago that the communion was 5/2. Well I mentioned to Murph, who they never told, she's only the grandmother

and they never told my other brother DB1 and his family. So by the time DB1 found out it was too late for him and his family as they had other commitments so DB2 vents to me yesterday that he is upset that everyone didn't show up.
So the mass was @ 11 and we were told lunch immediately following. Try an hour and half after mass

. Now most us drove from some distance and had nothing to do. Murph and I sat in the parking lot of the restuarant for 45 minutes, they never invited anyone back to their house which is where they went.
Now at Easter DB1's wife had left a couple dishes at DB2's house as they were still being used when they had to leave and was told DB2 would bring them to the first communion (oh that's when it came out the no one told DB1 about the communion)
At the church Murph asks if he has them, no I forgot, I'll get them when I run home. At the restaurant as we are leaving and have a long drive home, Murph asks to get the dishes. OH, I don't have them, why don't you come back to the house and get them.
Well at that point I had it, he had been a jerk all day (ok most of his life, he has a nasty sense of humor that is just disrespectful to others) and I had had my fill. I let it rip, oh boy we had quite the show in the parking lot, not one of my shining moments but I was furious with how he had acted and rude at how he had treated the guests with the poor planning and then thought nothing of me driving out of the way to pick up the damn dishes.
He ended up telling, well, yelling at me not to dare come near his house so I got in the car (with Murph who didn't say a word, I think we scared her) and went home.
I thought long and hard last night and you know what...
I just don't like my DB2, I know that sounds awful, but he can be such an insensitive, inconsiderate jerk. ( I will say he is a good father and husband most of the time, very devoted, but the way he teases them I just can't tolerate). For instance with my niece yesterday, her b-day is this week too, so everyone had her communion gifts and b-day. He told her and I quote "because the leftist liberal running the country thinks that we are too rich for you to get any gifts, you have to give everything back"

She will be 8 years old, nice thing to hear, a little Mommy Dearest don't you think. But he thinks he is just being funny. I think I have a pretty good sense of humor, most of you know me well enough to know what my humor is and well, that is just not funny to me.
OMG, I think I just wrote a small novel, sorry to ramble on after being away for a few weeks.
I think I just needed to vent.
I hope all is well my dear Fockers, I truly love you guys and have missed you all
Oh and thank goodness I am leaving on vacation in 12 days!!!!!!
