Okay - in a normal person's world, "*this*" is not all all strange. But in my world, it is journal worthy.
I just got an email from my Mum. It is well written and thoughtful. And it made me smile.
In other, more normal (for me) news - I have MRI day on Tuesday. Saw neurologist Thursday, and "failed" the little tests they do. It's like a US sobriety test on steroids. I hate MRIs, because the contrast makes me want to vomit. Took a day off work knowing that is in the wind.
Spoke with my brother today, as there won't really be good, face-to-face moment to tell him about my physical state. That wasn't a great chat to inflict on him... but still good whenever I speak with him.
And my boss has been thinking emergency plans, same as me. When I first was told that, yes - we are back in neurologist land, I had a chat with boss about me needing to train someone on handover client. Because I'll have times like now when I just need to take the first MRI appointment I can get.
Now she has floated the work from home possibility, which had also been in my mind in case of emergency. I need to move out of where I am first, anyway, since I need a stable and connected environment for the IT set up. If I need to go that way.
Today I am doing what I shouldn't... work at home. I have been given the written instructions for hand over client. Unless you already know how to do everything... they are shit. Full of acronyms, no differentiation between what client does and what we do. Instructions for one process in the middle of another process with nothing to say they are for a different thing. And if you follow them not knowing... you would do some really messed up things which would see invoicing go right up shit creek.
More positively - the rest of the team are in the same office as us, in some next door rooms. I am very happy with this, especially since NLP Guy knows how to use the coffee machine and brings me surprise cappuccinos.
