In case you hadn't worked it out, daylight saving has finished, which makes it easier for me to post on the morning thread. However, that doesn't mean you have to let me monopolise it!
We had an interesting day today. A young friend had posted on FB last night that she had had a bad day. When I woke up this morning, her BOSS had posted in response, accusing the girl of being angry with her (the boss) and using FB to whine. "If you're not happy, you can always resign," said the boss. But under Aussie law, what the boss did was workplace bullying, coercion and is actionable. So I said so, politely, on FB. Told the boss to call the relevant gov't dept. And it was nothing to do with work anyway, my friend had a problem with someone she met late last night.
Later I met up with easy child 2/difficult child 2 who showed me the messages from our young friend. We stayed away from the workplace in question (on FB, my avatar is my very recognisable face) but tonight I've heard from our young friend.
I hate unfairness and bullying.
easy child 2/difficult child 2 saw my neuro this afternoon, to try to sort out her ADHD medications. She liked him (I knew she would). We've coordinated our return appointments for a month's time, but the doctor said he should have her prescription sorted out by Tuesday. Such a relief after all the trouble we've had! easy child 2/difficult child 2 again expressed how unhappy she had been with the previous doctor, and why. I'm very glad e've got her out of that situation. Now I just have to sort out the boys...
I should see difficult child 1 tomorrow, he and his troupe are fighting in the cemetery. Broadswords and "Have at thee, varlet!" It's an unusual way for nerds to get muscles like football players...
I'm about to head to mother in law's again to cook dinner - lamb and rosemary sausages tonight. I've been waiting for husband to get home so we can go to the local shop for some yogurt so I can make tzaziki.
Enjoy your Friday.
