    Dinner out, first time in ages. Little Mexico in Berwick. Nice enough, kinda lacking in spice levels but that’s probably more on me.

    I regret getting in contact with my Aunty to settle things.

    She tells people that I’m the nice one I’m the family but I just choose not to get into conflicts.

    She texts me this.

    “I haven’t got any replies to my emails. You better tell your cousins to hurry up to have settlement by blah blah date”

    Dunno if I’m reading into too much but it does t sound very nice and feels like she’s pressuring me to rush them.

      Family conflict over property issues is the worst. Brings out a real nasty side of people. I hope like hell it’ll go smoothly in my family

        I’d like to see it resolved soon but not with messages like that. It’s very demanding I feel and she’s supposed to be the executor of the will.

        There’s already been major conflict in the family with the contesting of the will and some legalities that had to play out and she dumps it all on me because I’ve chosen to stay neutral as much as I can.

            The director (of the company that was bought out) admitted to me at the xmas party that she was burnt out and wanting to quit. The new company treat her like shit apparently.

    Oh noes … Came home a bit early so I could regroup and finish off the years tasks quietly. 20 min nap on couch became 2 hour DEEEP sleep with random nightmares and now my neck is cricked and I am discombobulated.

    Yep. That was 2024 in a nutshell

    Who’s an idiot who thought it’d be overcast and left their bedroom blinds partly open and window wide open. No prizes for guessing.

    I am being taught over and over again THOU SHALT ALWAYS LEAVE THE BLINDS DOWN AND WINDOWS CLOSED before leaving for work. No exemptions. Boiling.

    Met up with some old colleagues which was nice - kind of really tied a neat bow on that chapter, one year on - now to catch up on 2.5 hrs of work and call it a day.

        You’re the best bottom racer (maybe that makes you a top racer).

        Refuse to turn on ac so ice pack against forehead and neck it is. Might have another nerve jolting cold shower.

    So today i mostly worked like a dog. My boss admitted to faffing a little too much today and didn’t as much done as she should have.

    Hopefully this earns me a couple of early work finishes though tomorrow I have a work function at the end, I really hate that keeping us at work later to do these functions.

      I’m lucky my work functions have been totally paid and during work hours. If they were out of hours I’d bail (as nice as my colleagues are).

        I hate that the one tomorrow goes as late as one and a hours after work ends and isn’t paid.

        I always felt it was so cheeky of them to host farewells and end of year things and stuff after work hours.

          Wow, no, the absolute max I’d do is 30 minutes, 1.5 hrs is taking the piss. Especially when you’ve worked yourself tired. We all spend too much time at work as it is!!!

            I’m probably going to do 30 mins as after that it’s after work time but they’re so slow with all the speeches and stuff, I may just sneak out since I’m not particularly fond of the people we’re farewelling.

            Even the lure of free food isn’t enough to make me stay.

        Thanks. That’s just wood tiles I put down on the concrete, they take a fair amount of work to up keep but are worth it. They keep the terrace a cool comfortable place rather than a brick and stone hot box
