Zero

Its 0 degrees here. I’m working from home thankfully, but the poor kids are so bored. They didn’t get a walk and probably won’t tonight either because it’s not supped to warm up. If the wind would stop gusting it wouldn’t be so bad. Cats are so much easier to play with indoors. I don’t really know what to do with these monkeys to entertain them.
 
My insurance sucks. I’m dropping them as soon as all this nonsense is worked out. They wouldn’t tell me jack about my current situation. I finally got a letter from Nationwide yesterday telling me “what to expect” and actually saying that if their client is found responsible, that they will cover the cost of the rental car. That is ALL I really wanted to know. So, I finally rented a car for the next week and a half. I was going to only get it on the days that I needed it, but that’s so much of a PITA. So, I’m crossing my fingers. This should be pretty straight forward and they should reimburse me. I’m going to call Nationwide today since they can probably help me more than my own insurance can.
 
Its funny how life changes. I started writing on this site specifically because I had too much time at my day job. I would sit at my desk and try to look busy. I would write every day and look forward to reading a lot of other diaries. But now my day job is too busy (except when I’m working at home), and my evenings are usually too occupied or the computer is being used by Mich. I feel like I have totally gotten away from journaling. I don’t even write in my paper diary anymore. It makes me a bit sad. I want to write more.
 
I had a lunch meeting with my boss’ boss yesterday. She had some input into my review and I guess she wanted to chat about some of my goals for the future. I’m glad we talked because I think she probably now really understands better what I really like doing and that the position she’s put me in with assisting her leasing guy in FL is not really something I enjoy. I felt like it was a really positive meeting and I hope good comes from it.
 
I really want to take some of my bonus money and go get allergy testing done. But I also want to take an art class or do something creative. And I also want to buy some new clothes for work. Technically, I could do all of that, but I don’t want to blow all of my bonus money right away.
 
I’ve got nothing important to say today. I’m happy the sun is shining and that I’m working from my cozy house today.
