Good morning from the "swamp"...
Weather...86* at 7:40 am. Expecting a round of severe weather today. Yep, saw that right, 85*.
Checking in... before I head out to the pool--because it's sunny right now...
Gosh I was so close to my exit. This was Friday, we were dismissed from Orlando at 10 - 10:30 am and I could have been home by 11:30...nope, instead it was 2:30 thanks to a semi hitting the 66th St. bridge here in Marion County...sat in traffic for nearly 3 hours. I am glad I made it home safely; however, I was a tad bit mentally ill by then.😉
I was greeted by these cheerful flowers and a happy husband.
I'm loving/grateful...being home. Period. I also did all my laundry already.
Have to deal with...an unfortunate situation that happened at the Summit/Conference. The boss told me to deal with it, or he will have too, and it won't be pretty if he dealt with it. Something happened with a coworker who has been more or less stalking me (and he is fully aware of this because it's been going on for months and folks just thought it was cute and funny and now it got out of hand. Yes, I have documentation.)...long story short, this person accused me of being a thief, and I called her stupid.
Feeling...
Went yesterday...down early yesterday morning to Oxford aka The Villages yesterday and met our friends. There was a huge yard sale going on Brown's Farm. I didn't make it far and told hubby I needed to head back to the car. 1. The extreme humidity/heat, 2. My feet are killing me. Before I headed back, we stopped at a booth...nice couple who run their own business etc... anyways he/the hubby bought these:
We are going to use the Blueberry BBQ today. Hubby is going to put in a pork roast. ANYWAYS, we came home, and I sat in the pool until the afternoon rumblings / thundering started.
That's all I got folks...no books, nothing I am watching just because I fell asleep watching Lara Trump's show last night...and honestly, my brain is trying to figure out how to handle this situation.
Have a great day all.
Welcome home! I'm sorry the drive home was so bad. It's awful when you are just stuck on the highway.
ReplyDeleteI'm even more sorry about this person stalking you and accusing you of stealing. I hope you can get it resolved!
Enjoy your day!
I am sorry you got stuck on the highway due to an accident, Linda. Glad you got home safely. I am also sorry to hear about the situation that happened with your co-worker at the conference. I know you will figure it out (you shouldn't have to as that should be an administrative boss thing), but I don't understand why they thought it was cute/funny and not thinking it was inappropriate. I hope you have a restful day.
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH! a female colleague stalker! that's.....creepy....glad you have documentation. Let me know the outcome!! wow. there ARE laws against that!
ReplyDeleteThat is one long traffic jam. Ugh and I think the Mass Pike is bad! hah
I hope you have a relaxing day despite the storms. We have HOT HOT HUMID weather for the last 6 days. I am NOT a fan. Give me 64-80 with NO HUMIDITY and this mountain gal is happy.
Happy sunday!!
Sorry for your troubles getting home. I loathe I-75 and have never been on it without getting stuck in traffic two or three times along the route when I'm heading north. Also sorry for your troubles with the coworker. Good grief. Not sure having your boss tell you to deal with it is the best option, but glad you reported it and have documentation. Hope you enjoy your Sunday and that you can ease back into the week ahead!! xo
ReplyDeleteWait - you have a female stalker who called you a thief? Or is this another person. Thank God you gave that pool where you can just float away your troubles. Sweet gesture from your husband… he missed you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteHi Linda. Glad you are home safely. That traffic jam you sat in does not sound fun at all. How nice that your husband had some beautiful flowers to welcome you home. Will pray that God will guide you in handling the situation you have with a co-worker. Yes, it's always good to document everything. I hope you can rest and relax today and have a good week. See you again soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that you made it home safely in spite of the rotten traffic, Linda. Best of luck for dealing with that situation at work. It's always something, isn't it? Have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you've documentation! I'm waiting with bated breath to hear how this 'situation' plays out. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteMay God give you wisdom and courage to do whatever He leads you to do. I know God will direct your steps, so just pray and move ahead as He leads the way. But whatever you do, be sure you have a witness. I'm glad you got home safely in spite of the traffic and the unfortunate accident. Yeah, I hear you. I don't do interstates unless there is absolutely no other choice, and I know you didn't have much choice. Glad that's over and done with. We'll be praying for you this week.
ReplyDeleteOh Linda! So glad you made it home safely. Praying for your situation. I know it can't be easy but you should not have to handle it. Hope your week goes well!
ReplyDeleteLinda, you need a vacation! Your highway situation is on the daily here in Texas. I10 is the worst highway in the country (in my opinion). 18 wheelers everywhere and they drive like they can't see.
ReplyDeleteAnd what in the world with the female stalker???
I hear y'all are in for some weather this week, so be safe! Take care of yourself :)
I'm with Robin! Why should You have to sort it all out? She's a co-worker! You "not da boss"! That's why he gets paid the big bucks.... to sort things out!
ReplyDeleteHR involved yet?
Three hours in traffic?? And I thought Houston was bad!
Try to have a better week sweet lady!
hugs
Donna
Oh dear, I can just feel your relief at getting home, and to those lovely flowers and a happy husband!:). I don't know why your boss wants you to handle the accusation, but my goodness, that's awful. Pray for wisdom, and think about what you are going to do, get your thoughts in order (vengeance is the Lord's, but we sometimes have trials where we have to be bold and defend ourselves!), have a witness if you confront...and I'll be praying for you, Linda! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWell that situation at work doesn't sound good. Sure hope you get it worked out. Good you have the pool to cool off, in more ways than one if ya know what I mean!! lol
ReplyDeleteCo-workers! There's always that one that likes to gamble with their front teeth ... /js 😂😂
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back home all safe and sound. Those flowers are lovely. Dave is such a sweet, thoughtful guy.
Hope the week is going well. Sending prayers.
Love ya. ❤️
Great post. Glad to see everything seems to be just as hot and humid as us in Houston.
