Whiskey clearly hates me

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 8h

He was here last night for the zillionth time. It is fine. I'm not a dog person but he is very easy to watch and he and my orange tabby cat Charlie are BFF. They've been buddies since he was a puppy. His owner took this picture...

It is Saturday and a day off

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 17h

so of course I woke up at 4:30am. I stayed in bed for like half an hour and then gave up and got up. How is it even possible that I need the alarm to wake me up at 5:30 on a work day and then need 2 snoozes just to...

You have got to be kidding me

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 21 Feb

My neighbor just texted me to see if I could watch Whiskey at 5:30. In the past week he has been here on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Nothing yesterday but now he will be here today. In all honesty I'm not...

1 hour done and now waiting on the 2nd student

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 21 Feb

She's usually pretty good about logging in but she's a few minutes late. I wait 10 minutes and then I'm done. Since this is a *new* homebound I will still get paid if she no-shows. Fine with me! At 5 I have an hour with a...

No jury duty on Monday

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 21 Feb

Phew. I received a text message this afternoon saying that I did not have to report to the courthouse on Monday for jury duty. That kind of surprised me since I am #77 which is pretty low. They will text me on Monday to let me...

Student artwork

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 21 Feb

Yesterday a student drew an ocean with me sailing off to Mexico. A student in another class added me going to jail in Mexico. This morning another student added a bomb. If only they put this much effort into learning biology.

Dammit. I grabbed a can of ginger ale from the fridge this morning and saw the leftovers from last night’s dinner salad. I planned to bring it here for lunch but I still had shower, get dressed, etc so I left it there with the...

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 20 Feb

Well it isn't really surprising. He has served in the Senate for 40 years. He gave up his Senate Majority Leader for this Congressional term. He has been seen freezing and staring blankly for many seconds while in the middle of a...

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 20 Feb

As I wrote about this morning I had 2 class coverages today during my prep and my lunch. That is easy money. I'm in the secretaries' good graces so I'm one of the first people that they offer them to. (Doesn't hurt...

Such sad news

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121422) • United States 20 Feb

It doesn't impact me but I'm still upset about it. My ex-husband's cousin's husband (say that 3 times fast) had the flu and then crashed rapidly and wound up in the ICU in critical condition with his kidneys shutting down. She...
