When I came home, my vacation began. A week away, to live by our own rhythms.
The appeal to my write-up has been denied. I figured I had to make the attempt. Perhaps starting a report trail for her ill treated staff in the future, if not for me. So be it. As I sat out in the mild spring air, Moby somewhere at the end of the tether, the garden teeming around me, my mind found a way around.
I will thank her for the opportunity to approach all my teammates and tell them how much I value and appreciate, as well as trust, them. And I am deeply touched by how much they expressed their value of me, and support, to be outright told they have my back, to know they are on my side. The advantage of being completely true.
Whether I say any of this out loud is another thing, but I have it in my heart.
Now, that is worth something, when you think about it/That is worth some money.
Next Friday, I'm having the recycle party here. We are looking forward to it.

Damn. That's too bad they denied your appeal, but good your coworkers see your true worth.
Happy vacation! Are you off on your driving trip then?
Fresca,
We both decided we were insufficiently recovered from the virus to make a 3 hour drive and an overnight stay. Given how we are doing this morning, it was a good call.
Enjoy your rest and recuperation.
Disappointing that you were denied. Glad you stood your ground; at least that is always satisfying to me to stand up instead of lay down and play dead.
Fg,
It was a long shot, really. Got an eap appointment this week, and I will ask for help there as well.
