I'll contribute as I like the question. Just another week on nights, roughing my way through making merry with coworkers I don't love because I don't believe in a toxic workplace, so even if you question the place and your place within, you better find a way to get along with them because you are going to be with them for hours you can't be with others you love.

Worked and often woke up feeling like a piece of shit. I could only trust my cats to tend to me and give their love (and meows)

This morning was my favourite part after the night shift. Not the aggressive morning drivers, who couldn't wake up when they needed, but seeing the fog over ponds and meadows forming, reflecting the hues from the morning sun. I wondered who else was looking?

My frustrating part? Being on nights, feeling lonely, even if I know loneliness is a personal place, watching those throw their time in a mad rush clearly not seeing what is before them. That they just throw it away for an adrenaline rush? It can be confusing when you become older, what are your favourite parts and your must frustrating parts in a world that won't slow down.

Sleep

@awildsheepschase I saw the fog this morning. I also saw the crescent moon with the two stars below it that looked like drips. It was lovely. So you weren't alone!

I'm glad your cats love you. ❤

I hate how life has just become about working. So many people stuck in jobs, unable to do the things they really want. It makes me sad. Particularly when the majority of workplaces are extremely toxic and petty.

I hope you get rest this weekend!
@FoxyQueen Oh, I only alluded to the stars beside the moon this morning. I have an imaginative and creative mind, I saw a swan beside the moon. I thought how beautiful to be set to the moon. How kindred of spirits they would be.

♥ Thank you, may you find all you need too
How are you?

My dad is back in hospital.
We viewed a high school for my daughter.
My class were better.
Ive had 3 parent meetings regarding their kid's behaviour.
I need to look after myself more.
My toe is broken.

@V00doo Wow!

I'm so sorry to hear about yoir dad and your kids. 😓 that is hard to deal with.

Broken toes are the worse! Seems like all you can do is tape it up and hope for the best. I had to do that myself.

I've had an okay week. A flareup of my chronic health issue has slowed things down a bit, but I'm glad it's friday and I get to rest this weekend.

Make sure you spend some time taking care of yourself! You not only deserve it, you can't care for others either.
@FoxyQueen You too

Usual ups and downs but mostly ups. Positives were some decorating, finding bargains and getting my season tickets for hockey. Negatively I found a few things hidden away that reminded me of my wife.

Hopefully, this weekend will be the same as last, time spent alone in nature. Leaving the phone in the truck so no distractions.

Hope your week was good and your weekend the best it can be!

@SageWanderer Bargains are great! I found a great mixing bowl set of 8 ceramic bowls for $18 this week! I had just been saying how I needed a nice set!

Sorry to hear about the reminders. ❤ i hope they brought some good with the bad.

Sounds like a wonderful weekend! Enjoy!

My week was alright but a little hectic. Worked all week and the week just seemed to drag on.

Frustrating because I wasn’t feeling well enough to exercise much but I did get out for a walk with friends last night.

Best part was reading a new book I bought

Weekend plans - farmers market and drive in. Order sons birthday cake tonight

@Jenny1234 I'm glad you were able to go for a walk even with feeling poorly. Sounds like a pretty nice week and a great weekend!

It has been a good week. My favorite part was golf yesterday morning. It was mostly a week of writing lessons for upcoming classes. The frustration comes with a lack of ideas. Today I will volunteer at the county Food Bank distribution. Saturday, I will speak at an athletic banquet and watch college football on TV. Sunday I will teach a class, go to church, and attend a meeting. Naps are strategically placed each day.

@exexec Are you the reason @Teslin was frustrated at golf?

Such a busy weekend! I hope all of it goes well!
exexec · 70-79, C
@FoxyQueen Everybody who plays golf with us is sure to have fun. Thanks for the encouragement.

Wednesday was both my best day and frustrating day.
Took 1/2 day - Best part
Played golf - Frustrating part
FoxyQueen · 51-55, F
@Teslin if golf was the most frustrating, it was a good week!
Teslin · M
@FoxyQueen Good point !!
As they say, a bad day on the golf course still beats a good day at the office.
