Stressors

1/4

Dinner with Carmen tonight. How I pray that she understands how her life will become much tougher and less secure once she is divorced. I wish Manju would quit showering her with gifts and meals, so she is not thrown into it without some warning of what is to come. Supposedly their therapy session next week will be to fill out the divorce papers online.

I realized this afternoon after a brisk 10 minite walk at work that I felt a bit less stressed. Not necessarily from the walk. Something else. It is my new assistant at work. We had a meeting earlier and she said she was going to reorganize our digital files. I realize I no longer have the thought of unorganized files just sitting unorganized that caused so much stress. I called her and told her how much I appreciate her help.

More major info gathering to prep for switch to IIFM 2.0 seemed overwhelming, but sounded better as I went over more instructions. I will start entering info tm.

I recieved a call from a stake clerk trying to report a change in meetinghouse for a YSA unit. The name of the unit and address were not familiar to me. I thought they were maybe in Eric s FMG, but could not find it in his list either. I tried to look it up in PFMaps, but that was not helping, a LURC came up for the meetinghouse address he gave me, but at least it told me it was in the Oquirrh FMG. I told him I would check with that FM and get back to him. He said he would try to press a different option for the phone number to see if they could help. As i was sending the Oquirrh FM messages in Teams, he called me and said he found someone higher up that helped me on the other line. 

PRIDE. That statement of someone "higher up" is really rubbing me wrong. He probably spoke to an FSC, who is not higher up. I need to think about these feelings. Is it because I worked hard to be higher up? I heard talk yesterday about a GA saying "do you know who I am" to a company guard that would not allow him access to the building where he was CEO because he did not have his ID. I need to read that talk again. I need to find humility like Jesus.

Lots of new work revealed in FM Council mtg this morning. PowerPoint presentations are now required for all R&I. And Matt  wants us to manually enter project info on teams spreadsheet. And new 1 on 1 agenda to complete. This is on top of the PM spreadsheet work that is priority. 

But by the end of the day, I took 3+ hours to just create the tabs needed and I felt much better about the PM tasks because JD shared some incredible MS Excell shortcut magic.

Yesterday:

- UPS did not deliver my new laptop although put note on door upstairs to call me. Retrn to vendor now 

-Rear passenger tire at half psi since last night. Went to Discount tire. Terrifying time. Discount tires sent Kevin's email notice of the work. They sent me a text, but they had Kevin's email not mine. Carmen, Manju and Tyler(visiting from Bend) picked me up for lunch. My insides were vibrating for hours. I went to Fashion Place mall to walk it/shop it out. It took me from 2 to 7 of walking and speed walking, returning Christmas purchase, getting coffee cake and chamomile tea at Nordstrom, buying very discounted NewYorker comic desk calendar, buying ski gloves for Thursday snowshoeing. Watched several episodes of Black Falcon Winter Soldier on Disney. Spent the night waking every two hours (12 - 7) to poop with slight IBS pain. Turned into diarrhea when I got up about 8:30. Better after that blow out, followed by a few more throughout the day.

I need go check on Tuesday exactly what w discount tire emailed Kevin.  My address and cell????? I pray not.
