OT advice on calling out before leave

I love dogs's picture

I am PRN and only have two 8 hour shifts left (5a-1p) tomorrow and Wednesday but feel like I can't physically or emotionally do it. They're only legally obligated to give me 6 weeks of leave but my supervisor approved 8. They know I'm a hard worker and I've been working tons of overtime but my body just hurts and I feel like having a meltdown today because I'm barely halfway done with my shift right now and they stuck me in the ER (ie busiest position and we rotate in 4 hour shifts and I've already done 13 portables before everyone got here).

SD came over to get a shirt

And took about half of the nice flannel tops I bought her over to BM's. I was "hiding" in our room when she came over and she came into our room, into the bathroom where I was doing my eyebrows and says she's "maybe coming over this weekend" and that she joined track at school. This is the self proclaimed "sloth". At least she's doing something other than vegging away at video games.

SD coming over randomly and DH's whole mood changes

DH had always been more short with me when she was here before but tonight the second she got dropped off, he started being snippy with me so I told him to go away and leave me alone if he was going to treat me that way. He just doesn't see it and our daughter is due in less than 2 weeks. I told him if this is how he's going to treat me when SD is around, I'll stay elsewhere when she's here.

Dad and stepmom tried to put me in the middle of their arguement

My stepsister is a very sweet young lady. She will be 22 and goes to college full-time and has a serving job to pay for gas and her extras but has no bills whatsoever. Her boyfriend just turned 25 and lost his job at an ice cream shop and is supposedly applying for unemployment but has not found another job and lives with his grandpa but occasionally stays at my dad and stepmom's house. However, his grandpa is moving or losing the house and now the boyfriend will be homeless if dad and stepmom don't take him in.

The games will never stop

As I suspected. The other day I posted that I'm sorry SD has to be caught in the middle of this mess and I meant it. She slept over on Sunday but BM "needed her back" for NYE so DH got SD again yesterday. We went to a dinner at our friend's house where we had a huge spread and we brought a few dishes also.

What is wrong with me?

SD stayed over again last night and DH is going to turn her phone back on. I told him that he needs to talk to her about sharing private family matters on the internet but I doubt he will. She has been using a texting app on the phone anyway and it will obviously get internet with wifi. 

(Kinda OT) Rant- stealing a pregnant woman's food and the week from Hell

I love dogs's picture

I am 36 weeks pregnant and have been at work since 5am. I have put in 55 hours and have 7.5 today. This is my 6th day working at a busy hospital. I did my morning duties which seemed to never end and 2.5 hours later I go to heat up my breakfast sandwich. Nothing special, just a frozen turkey sausage and egg white croissant.

SD is staying the night and is up DH's ass..

And I'm so frikking annoyed right now. She said hi to me and I said hi back but that was it. She is following DH around like a puppy and is talking about playing video games at BM's and is going to ask her to bring her new game over.. And has mentioned BM at least 5 times in the 30 minutes she's been here.

DH brought SD up again

On the car ride to my dad's house. He dropped me off at work yesterday so that we could go straight there after my 12 hour shift. He had SD from about 230ish-645 and picked me up at 7. He said something to the effect of "SD was disappointed she had to go back to BM's and BM wouldn't just let me keep her". Well thank the good Lord, DH!
