What SHOULD you be doing right now? (second edition)

[Queen Victoria]

I should be studying for my intro to social media exam. It is on the 13th.

Study? ?  ?   Eight days ahead of it?  Ye gods and little fishes, woman.

[odeon]

Get another cup of coffee.

[Pyraxis]

NOT bothering my partner with difficult questions at bad times. 

[odeon]

Not sure. This, I guess.

Write a decent worded, effective email, telling an ASD support person that I do not wish to see her again.

Write a decent worded, effective email, telling an ASD support person that I do not wish to see her again.

I pondered, I wrote, I thought, I wrote, I deleted, I wrote. It was all too big to be readable, or too condensed to make sense. That is, if I wanted to keep it polite. The impolite way is easy enough:

You stress me out. You are not clear in your appointments, not keeping any words you say, and your skills and tasks seem to change every week too, to match whatever suits you. You do not listen to a word I say, or take any question I ask serious. On top of that, you have this silly happy happy grin, and tell me to rejoice because everything will be alright. All you have done for me, so far, is stress me out.

So, made a phone-call to the organisation, and asked what steps to take. They'll call me back. This time telling/talking will be better than writing it all down.

At least, I took the first step. That is a relief.

It's time to plan my day.

With a kid not always able to go to school, and rarely able to leave early, I have to plan my days depending on how the morning will be.
I could do with some more stability. But this is not the time I'll get it. I find my mornings very tiring, because I do fuck all, bar getting kids out of their bed, and hopefully two to school.
I just don't know whether morning routines will be over 7 or 11, or any time in between. (Why do I use the word routine when big part of routine is missing?) Right now, morning rituals are not over yet.

Only one kid to school today.

The impolite way is the honest way, though, and it seems to me that a professional receiving it should be able to decode it. Perhaps not your contact, but most likely one of their colleagues.

Good luck.

I should be doing... this. I don't have anything I must do, as far as I know, and this is what I can do, right now.

[Queen Victoria]

What I'm doing now.  Tending to my interests and mental and emotional health by being here.

[odeon]

This.

I should get on with my ironing. The iron will be on temperature again, after the water refill. (It barely cools down, but I wanted an excuse to post a bit. )

[Icequeen]

I should be getting ready to battle walmart shoppers and go get groceries....I don't wanna.

Call to see if the ammo truck has come. Let that motivate you.

[odeon]

I should be taking a shower.
