Feeling Comfortable in my Own Skin

Growing up (we) my family and I didn’t have much. My siblings and I were bullied, and I didn’t have a lot of friends because I was too afraid to be hurt by anyone else. I didn’t trust anyone, and I kept quiet to not attract any attention to myself. I never knew why I…

It worked out – 1/22/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. MD “LAU” as I call her wants to know where the error occurred. I told her, “DD” shorted the budget and we really didn’t have those funds in October 2024 and now we’re short on funds now. I’m not sure, I wasn’t here how he didn’t pull the financial…

Like it or not – 1/21/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Busy times working on dealing with last weeks news of no budgets and having to find cost savings to deal with the shortfall of year one for 3 programs. The forecast submitted by the lead person, “DD” as I call him was shorted and now we have no funds…

Friday reflection – forced acknowledgement – 1/16/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Just because I don’t say much, doesn’t mean I don’t know. She loves to write these emails and makes comments putting people down in a “nice” way, as if we don’t know her manipulative tactics. In reality she tries to mask her ignorance and lack of knowledge, trying not…

Going with the flow despite the unknown – 1/15/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m being stretched thin. If anyone watched gumby back in the day (90’s) that’s me today. Everyone needs something from me and it hasn’t stopped since the beginning of the year, two weeks ago. I’m still in my element with more confidence each day that passes. I gladly take…

While I was out – 1/08/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have been back to work only a couple days and my days are filled with plenty to do, nothing has changed on this topic. It’s still busy. The vacation I took for one week and a few days really shook these people. There was no movement and most…

Starting year 2 – 1/7/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I turned one year at this organization yesterday. It feels more like 5 ☺️. MD “SE” tells me today that I am an anchor. I took it as a compliment. He also has a surprise for me but it’s delayed. Whatever it might be I am grateful for the…

Avoiding confrontation – 12/24/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s Christmas time and I really am trying to hold my tongue, avoiding the same 2 women. Day after day both have been asking for one invoice because the supplier is owed the amount for months. Why should I be stressed over your lack of oversight. Today I was…

Friday reflection – accountability staring you in the face – 12/19/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. And it is here. I really do not want to say it, but it’s time for people to answer for their careless work. Some haven’t been held to the minimal standard and now it comes out and this is small too and another problem to solve. Director 2 shared…

Face to face questions ignored- 12/17/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. My opinion, they don’t like how I operate, but there is no other choice. I’m the only one here and the only doing the work. They have no other choice but to follow my instruction. I’m doing the right thing and they feel as if I’m going to do…
