I'm starting to understand why my grandparents were obsessive TV watchers - as in, they would turn on the news three times a day and HAD to watch it, as if anything had changed. </p> <p>Doesn't help that last night I could not fall asleep, and then DD woke up in the mood to party. I mean, it was kind of nice to hear her laugh, I'm hoping at least the kids aren't picking up what a mess I am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-having-trouble-focusing-at-work-today#post-2649737 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 12:34:02 +0000 kiddosc 2649737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today is a totally momentous day and people are just walking around the office like it's a normal day and I can't take it!! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-having-trouble-focusing-at-work-today#post-2649725 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 12:14:49 +0000 Caly 2649725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: I'm wearing a white blouse and purple blazer today...perfect coincidence! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-having-trouble-focusing-at-work-today#post-2649704 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 11:58:52 +0000 sheskrafty 2649704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I keep refreshing social media expecting to find something.

It's going to be a useless day. But DD and I are both wearing white and purple today as a nod to the suffragettes (their colors were white, purple, and gold). I can't do/wear anything partisan at work, but I think this is subtle enough. DD picked out her outfit all by herself and I'm so proud :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-else-having-trouble-focusing-at-work-today#post-2649689 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 11:48:19 +0000 kiddosc 2649689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No focus here...
