I went off on my boss yesterday in an email.

I have requested the next four working days off and he wrote me an email that said  if you HAVE to take the time off then go ahead, but we will really be short handed for someone to cover your job.

 

My brother is here from Canada.

My sister and her son are driving up from Florida and my terminally ill sister has asked me to clean out her room and a storage shed she has.

Not to mention she is dying and I would like to spend as much time with her as I can.

My boss sounded a bit miffed that I would dare act like my personal life could be more important then my job.

 

Ugh.

 

Lord give me strength to get through this time.

I don’t handle pressure well

I don’t handle stress well

I am a total mess when things don’t go as I would like them to.

 

I need to find some finesse to be polite to people who irritate me

so Please Lord, help me be stronger and get through all of this without being too much of a bitch.

Amen.
