T.G.I.F.!!!!!!!!

My eyes opened up ok this morning, however my body was saying, "No, it can't be time to get up yet!" I am still body tired. Do not know why, since I know I slept very well.

Our Division head is going on detail in Sept. for 6 months. I told her today that I am applying for disability retirement. She wasn't too surprised. I will have the paperwork done before she leaves. She is a good manager, and I expressed thanks at her patience with my medical issues. I also told her what the doctor said about the stress of me coming to work making the issues worse. She nodded her head-her mom has been ill for quite some time and she sees how stress makes it worse.

MC went pretty well last night. B was in a mood to complain about work, he was put on a leave restriction letter. He has taken off quite a bit of time. Some of it was to 'take care of' me when I was home sick, even when I told hime that I would be fine home alone. Some of it was his own. Oh, well, it is only for 3 months. Usually they run for 6 months. Basically, if he calls out sick he has to get a doctors note. I don't think that his manager followed proper procedure, but he's not sticking her to it.

We did uncover a sensitive issue for me-Beau 'teases' about what if's dealing with my retirement. I do not handle that well at all. And he did it in front of the MC. Agreement reached to stop that type of behavior. Another thing is that I am being 'triggered' by the fact that I am not able to work anymore. This is something big. We can't work on it next week-MC has family emergency that is taking her out of town- but the week after we will be using EMDR again to work it out.

B will be applying for reasonable accomadation to work from home more. He made a comment about me being on the couch while he is working. I teasingly said,"who's to say that I will even be in the apartment?" OOps, didn't go over very well. And I was talking about doing laundry and using the exercise facility! Well, he will need to get use to it! I will not be stuck in the corner of the couch just because he's working!

It is a normal Friday, I am covering for the Div. Secretary again. And I can go asleep in a minute.

TGIF!!!!!!!!
