Aren't these the moments we live for

In “I’m only slightly neurotic” news: I reconcile the receipts with the credit card bill at work every month. This includes a mix of receipts from in person purchases and online receipts. It drives me crazy for almost two years that they were different sizes every time and loose and not uniform or easy to manage. I finally started putting some of the really small ones on copy paper a few months ago and this month I put all of the in person ones on the copy paper with tape and I gotta tell you, it’s life changing. No worrying about receipts disappearing! Everything is the same size!

The most productive thing I did today was wait until the accounting person finally submitted the paperwork to add the new employee at the daycare to the timesheet system. New employee is flying today and will be gone until Tuesday and it’s a timesheet week!

My head also hurts but that’s my own fault because I didn’t have my protein shake until almost noon today for no real reason.

Love it when you color code something with two different colors and then forget what either color means 🤦‍♀️

C’s friend is our mechanic and C is bringing my car to him tomorrow when I’m at work for an oil change (that’s like 1500 miles overdue) and an inspection sticker. C set it up with him and the latest he could do was 4 pm so I’d need to leave at 3:30. C and I were brainstorming ideas (I really don’t have pto and I need it and it’s a payroll day so I need to stay until at least 4:30) and I hesitantly asked him if he could drive his car to my work and then drive my car to the shop and then he could pick me up when he’s done and I’ll just chill at the office until then (I also might ask my pal to be a backup in case it takes much longer than that because I think she’s close ish to the shop, and then C and I would drive together to get his car) (I can’t just drive his car home because it’s a manual). He was like why are you asking in like a hesitant/questioning way? And I said because it was a big favor to ask of him and I felt bad. He just looked at me like he didn’t quite understand me because to him it’s not a big deal??

C came home anticipating being sore today because he worked all by himself all day and he did a ton of stuff. I told him to take an Epsom salt bath and he was like “I’m out of it” and told me not to get to the store and that he would get it today after work. I was like ummm no. And bought a bunch on Amazon to be delivered this morning before he had even left at 6 am 🤷‍♀️ He wasn’t super happy but he will use it! I’d rather him have it and not need it!

I set the Intern up with a file organizing task* on the computer that she’s been chipping away at, so she didn’t really need that much instruction on how to do it (mostly she just needed me for the computer password and getting the folder on the computer because it’s a private folder in the sharepoint) and I was trying so hard not to like over explain and potentially insult her but I also mistakenly assumed the previous interns (who were all great too!) knew more about things on the computer than they did and I wanted to make sure she was all set! She’s very nice so she let me explain though haha. I also told her she can listen to music or whatever she wants (she’s on the first floor but is the only one down there today so she won’t be bugging anyone if she doesn’t have headphones) and I think she’s just working in silence??? I would not be able to do that lol. That’s how she usually does it though!

C and I have been living together for two years (like, today, if we’re going by exact dates) and it only occurred to me yesterday why he doesn’t notice and replace the toilet paper earlier than he does. The TP box is stored up high because it’s the only space, and he usually puts like 12 rolls at a time in drawers I can reach but I don’t think he has recently, and we have a holder for 3 rolls but we don’t replace them until we absolutely need to (I admit, I could do better at this!). Tuesday at like 9 pm I said we need more toilet paper in the bathroom and he was like “right now?” And I said “no, but before one of us uses the bathroom next” and he said “okay I can do that” and I went to bed and he came to bed at like 12:15 and I got up at 2 am and used the last bit of toilet paper on the roll. There was none in the drawers and I wasn’t going to attempt getting the box at 2 am.
