ravena_kadeMy stance on the holidays is that I am bracing for impact. Oh Boy.
The cardiologist called me yesterday to tell me how awesome my Dad is and that he is a joy. Yeah, great. Can he live with you? I once again said that I, the caregiver, need the heart surgery to be as late into January as possible or even the first week of February as my job will be in danger. Dad is mad about that. I told him that I can't handle learning year end tax functions with a deadline while trying to also do the month end reporting and deal with them cutting out chunks of your heart and having my house invaded. I. JUST. CAN"T If he keeps it up I will call his sister and ask her to call him. If I say no the surgery does not happen. He needs caregiving for 6 months if it goes well. You can't have this surgery if you are alone.
I need to start looking up FLMA paperwork. The hospital HR does not help you. I checked. I have to try and see if I can get him paid leave. I can't afford the heat and his meds and the mortgage on my own. I need FLMA for myself to protect me. If all goes well I should be able to work remote some days and call the older cousin (that does not live with the herd) to sit with him while I am in work. If I am let go then I can't work until he has recouped.
I need to start stripping my apartment and clear out my bedroom for my sister and partner as there is no room for them down stairs. Once they leave I will buy myself a new bed. I also want an office downstairs in the cellar. I don't like working in my apartment. I like a separation of work and home... and more distance from the fridge.
Tomorrow I am working from home because the boss wants it. Okay. She wants me to start working remote 2 days a week. Wednesdays and Thursdays. Fine. In the end this is a good thing. She still hasn't made a training plan ir a schedule of reporting. I have my own. And I just found out she is taking the 6th and the 9th off so I won't have my statements to do the Month end until she gets back and I will be behind and she will get pushy again.

HUGS, Jon
