How nice!
I got a $25 gift card from the place that repaired the car a few weeks ago. Not that $25 is a lot, but I am going to need (or maybe I do need) an oil change and now it will probably only cost me about $5 to have it done. Bonus!

Oh darling auntie...
As I was leaving tonight to go and watch my brother’s kids so that my kid go out for a horseback riding lesson with my sister-in-law, my aunt called my mom for a rescue. She and her new husband were out and got a flat tire. My mom drove out to where they were. They. Forgot. There. Was. A. Spare. I wish I was kidding. Because it wasn’t staring in their faces when they opened the...

Dear Mother -
Please stop fucking saying my kid does not need a shower when I tell them he/she/they need one. People need to shower more than once a week. Regardless of what you do. It is true. People shower. They shower to get clean. Getting clean is one of those personal hygiene type things I am trying to teach them. You saying they don’t need a shower only gets it in to their heads that they do...

I hate dealing with this.
So C is in counseling. His counselor irked me the other day, but he is the counselor and I am letting him work through things the way he is trained to do. I am not trained to counsel or maybe my kid would not feel the way he does. C told me that he is not able to concentrate at school and is having a hard time understanding/comprehending things in class. This is why he hates going and hates...

It seems to me...
It seems to me that sending in the dash panel of your vehicle while you still require it as transportation, is a bad idea. Sure, you can use our GPS navigation thinga-maj-jig to tell how fast you are going. But…you have no other gauges. Gas. Oil. RPM’s. Etc. I don’t even think it’s legal to drive without it. It’s for sure not recommended you drive with a...

I *was* right!
My husband and I each got an 8GB iPod Touch in March 2010. His has been full for ages, mine is broken so I never use it. I decided to get him a new iPod for his birthday. He wanted to get another Touch, but he was only looking at a 32GB one and I knew that wasn’t going to be anywhere near enough. And I knew a 64GB would be full almost as fast. So I bought a 160GB iPod Classic. I...

I just told my husband...
That I occasionally talk to my car and pet/pat the steering wheel. Particularly in bad weather. He thinks this is cute. I think it means I have issues. ;)

Things asshole roommates do...
My husband told his roommate that he was offered a job. A job the roommate had applied for, but was not offered. Roommate went to the store where my husband was offered a job and talked to the same person in the hopes of taking the job from my husband. Such an asshole.

Weekend good.
A. My husband was offered a job on Friday morning. All he did was show up at the place and happen across a manager in a good mood. If his school will accommodate the schedule, which they will, he’ll probably be able to start as soon as this next class is finished; in three weeks.
B. My husband passed his first class with an A. I knew he would, but it helped him feel good since school has...

Anxiety.
Anxiety sucks. Here’s why…
Making phone calls. Anxiety + Phone Calls = ANXIETY So I slack on making appointments or talking to just about anyone because I don’t want to use the phone and make a call. I’m pretty sure that monsters previously thought to be under your bed, don’t magically insert themselves in to the earpiece of your phone when you hit the age of 18....

This house is too moody.
I have bipolar disorder and anxiety.
My mom, she’s…to put it bluntly, we’ll just say she’s undiagnosed. Haha Also menopausal.
My son is going through things that I don’t understand yet. He is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde lately.
My daughter is just an 8-year old drama queen with major attitude and a listening problem. She’s the normal one.
It’s so much....

A year past.
Just about a year ago, I told my husband we were done trying to get pregnant. Hard to believe it’s been a year. There have been a lot of emotions and trying times since then. He still has a chip on his shoulder about it. I still have major feelings of sadness about it. But it is what it is. And we made it through the first year of this, so we’ll make it through many more without...

Things that suck.
Having to get your debit card deactivated and destroyed in case someone got hold of your account number. I’m probably overreacting, but when I see something I know doesn’t make a damn bit of sense, I’m at the bank. Hopefully, I’m overreacting. New card ordered. Tomorrow is dispute day if an actual charge goes through. Ugh.
Having to change all passwords on all...
