I am coming to the end of my 30 days off and have accomplished nothing. I had asked for a 2 week leave, but was denied, so I went out on disability for stress. The disability was denied, so I have been on company initiated leave. This will affect the office attendance, but since they had denied my request they left me with no choice. The Union wants to file a grievance for me, even thought they know I didn't see a doctor...the only reason I can think of is that the cause for my leave was harassment by my manager and they want to get it all documented.
On a side note, it looks like we may have company for the 4th so I have been doing some random cleaning...it is amazing how big my kitchen looks when the counters are clutter-free. Even Nickolas has been helping, he just got done cleaning and wiping the kitchen table.
David is taking a nap. It is over 100 today and he was outside working on his various projects. He is deep-pitting tomorrow night so our redneck BBQ for the 4th is:
Deep-pit ham (2 diff preps for 2 diff hams)
deep-pit beef (not sure what he is going to do with it)
BBQ linguisa
BBQ chicken breasts
garlic bread (with my special cheesy garlic butter)
beans
some sort of veggie
some sort of salad
apple crisp and icecream for dessert
I haven't done any baking for a while so this is a treat for David & Boy.
We are getting together with the people across the street-their son is 8 and I work with the mom. I alos invited a couple of my Chuy's friends that don't have kids and no where to go. It should be fun and it got me off my ass.
