Coming back...

[alterkrmn]

It's been an intense couple of weeks, between work, family and being a "functional adult."

I didn't have the time or energy to do much, really. I had to catch up with work, which can feel very difficult at times since we've been dealing with a very weird workload because our "leadership" thinks that: a) we're machines and we don't get tired or need breaks (which is ridiculous because even machines need breaks...) or b) the work days hours are twice as much as they really are.

Despite it all, I did finish watching Nirvana in Fire at some point last weekend, because I refuse to work on weekends if I don't get paid to do it. I loved the show and I can't stop thinking about rewatching it at some point. But maybe not too soon.

Now I'm back and reading Global Examination and watching Joy of Life 2.

I also started emboidering something because I miss doing it, I enjoy it a lot and I miss giving emboidered thingies to the people I care about. I'd love to show some WIP, but it's a secret and if it turns out well, it's going to be a gift for a certain something in the next few days.

I have many thoughts about many things and I finally feel like I have enough energy to write again.

Leadership feeling like you can keep working away like ants without taking a break? Whatever will they think of next... yeah.

Good to read you're holding on to your weekends at least!

Oh, yeah, my weekends are mine. That's not gonna change. Leadership can work on a Sunday at 10 pm if they want. I am not interested in climbing the corporate ladder.

In the US, it's pretty much expected that you will live to work and that's the way people are raised here.

That said, I'm English so... ;D
