Ok, today I'm stuck at home, car in the shop, we dropped cable TV, venting is about the only thing I have to do, so let's have at it---

I hate pizza pickers! You know, those people who order a deluxe pizza, then proceed to pick half the toppings off, put them in a nasty little pile, then munch away at the rest. why not just order a plain pizza to begin with

UPS drivers who ring the bell then run away, then I can't chase them down, because my car is in the shop!

Disrespectful kids who refuse to believe I am God! (I'm talking about my own kids)

Next door neighbors who don't mow their lawn, weeds butt hole deep, weeds blow onto MY lawn, then I get a HOA notice

Our paycheck shorted $100/month for that tax thing----

By the time we pay health insurance, we can't afford to go to the doctor

Nosey teachers/social workers who think I'm abusing my 6'4" son, because he had a bruise on his forehead---I can't even reach his forehead, let alone smack it

Three bathrooms---DS brushes his teeth in the sink then leaves dried toothpaste all over the counters

Cats throwing up hairballs all over the house

People on CD making fun of my "ghost stories"

There, that should do it for now.....

We're renovating our bathrooms (both of them) and hubby decided to buy all the stuff to do both of them, even tho he can't do both rooms at the same time. Consequently, the dining room and sitting room now have enough vanities, toilets, cabinets, etc. for 2 bathrooms. And, optimistically, since hubby has contracted a nasty case of tendonitis in both arms, the stuff will be hanging around for at least 3-4 months.

Uh oh! Sorry about his tendonitis. Hope it goes away quickly. I understand your aggravation with all the stuff piled up.

I know....I kept trying to convince him to wait till he feels better, but you know men..... At one point, I thought he was going down. Before he brought all this stuff into the house, I kept reminding him that each vanity weighs 275 lbs. They come fully assembled - marble top and sink - and you can't take the top off. He thought they were exaggerating the weight. And he didn't realize how much room all this stuff was going to take. ANd me? I get claustrophobic around clutter..... I'm trying to keep it together.

I think I have to go and ask the administrators for a new icon - one of me slapping hubby up 'side of his head.

That is contagious; I’ve become infected with the same thing here.

I had to take the day off from work as my eye irritation could be pink eye. I'm going to see the doctor later this morning to see if it is pink eye. I pray it isn't or that it clears up fast ... I'd rather be at work serving students

Ooo, Chat...good luck w/the eye.

DK, that's exactly what I needed. THanks! He did a bunch of lifting and he tore apart the wooden pallets from yesterday's deliveries and now he's paying for it. I finally read him the riot act and asked if he's ready now to rest those arms and let them heal. I tell ya....
