It's Friday...come vent so we can move on to the weekend!!

My cell phone won't charge. I have to go into the Verizon store and take it in. Hopefully they will give me a new phone without too much trouble.

The forecast starting tonite - RAIN!

90% chance tonite, 80% chance tomorrow.

WE NEED NO MORE RAIN HERE IN HOUSTON!

I've worked my tail off for two months and I still don't have any money to show for it. It will come, there's stuff in the pipeline, but it's frustrating. I had a buyer back out earlier in the week that should have given me my paycheck for April. No paycheck until May or June now.

How hard can it be to commit to a date. There is one weekend available, and the venue isn't available Sat or Sun. That makes it Fri evening. I'm so sorry that you don't like the idea of a Fri evening court of honor, but there isn't a choice. We need to put down the deposit before Friday is gone, too. I'm perfectly happy to do it myself, and I will if you don't commit today. Then you can organize your own some other time.

I have a Jeep that is only 8 months old, and the "tougher than regular car paint" on the hard top is already chipping, AND, there is a hole is the SIDE wall of one of the $250 tires. Luckily, I have a full sized spare, and we're hoping the paint is covered by the warranty.

Universe: Just Stop. I can't catch a break, but I can catch every virus that comes into the office. Co-workers: PLEASE WASH YOUR HANDS!

I've been sick two months with a variety of things. I AM DONE>

I just had to cancel my scrap trip for tomorrow.  It was in Loveland, two hours away.  It is supposed to snow throughout the weekend.  Rats.  We have 4 inches so far.  I'm in Colorado and we do need the moisture.  My flowers (that like the cold) are loving it.

You have been in our news.  Ugh.  Hope it stops soon.

This has been a horrible week at work. Tuesday, my boss told me to schedule a residential job to start Wednesday. Done. Then, Tuesday afternoon, he said our technician didn't finish the job he was on so had to go back Wednesday so I'd need to reschedule the job for next week. Apologized to the homeowner and rescheduled to start next Wednesday. Thursday, boss said "hey, the job we were supposed to start Friday is pushed to Monday, so ask the residential homeowner if we can start Friday morning".

Before contacting the homeowner, I asked boss "are you sure??" This was Thursday about 1PM. After confirming that it was definitely ok, I contacted this client, again, and told her we'd be able to start Friday morning between 8-8:30AM, if she was available. She said she'd make sure she was and all was good-right?!!

Not so fast-boss texted me last night to ask if we could re-schedule, AGAIN, for next week. I came to work at 6:30, spoke to our technician, and decided that NO, I was not going to contact the homeowner and push her off again. So I had the technician start her job today-LIKE IT WAS SCHEDULED.

This is the son of the company president and he's being groomed to take over the business. He is just so disorganized/scatterbrained I'm not sure how much more I can take!

Sorry for the long, rambling post-but it does feel good to vent.

These are being removed today. It's necessary, but I love them and will miss their shady beauty when it gets hot.

The crew is really nice, though, and the are being very careful of the stuff that stays.

I was riding scooter with my kids a week and a half ago, and I turn too sharp and crash to the ground. I went to a regular walk-in clinic, as it swelled right up and was quite painful. They did X-rays and said it wasn't broken, and gave me a removable wrist splint to help it heal.

Then 6 days later, the walk in clinic called me and said that they re-looked at the x-rays, and I actually fractured my hand, so they were referring me to an orthopedist for a consultation. I went today, and I actually broke / crushed the knuckle right below the pinky and ring finger. I had to get a cast on, and go back in 3 weeks to be checked. I'm mad that the first place didn't see it, so I wasted a week and a half not being in a cast, and I'm mad that I have to get a cast at all!!

Dear MIL,

I think it was dick move that you cornered DH into having a family reunion with just your family the same weekend as DS graduation & party. WTF were you thinking? Oh that's right you don't give a rats ass. You didn't stop to think that one its Memorial day weekend. Two, I have nephews grad ceremony Thursday night after working all day and having a house full of company. Three, DS grad ceremony Friday night and a dual graduation party for both boys Saturday. Now you want a family reunion on Sunday. Then to guilt DH into hosting the damn thing. Seriously?!? And then...have the balls of steel to tell DH cousin who I've met only 3 times in my life that she can just stay with us that weekend. Without even asking us if that was ok. What the ever loving F*+#'t*%%€. You do realize I have a 3 bedroom house and 1 bathroom and I already have several people staying here. We are so full I've got people staying in the camper for over flow. Then you actually got mad and pouted when I put my foot down and said NO. Cousin can stay somewhere else. Or better yet, you are getting a hotel room. So why not let her stay with you! Then to tell me "well then You need to call cousin and tell her." UM.... No. You told her without even asking. You can damn well call and and tell her you overstepped and she can not stay here.

Dear DH, grow a set a balls and actually say No to your mother. The fact that she even wanted to make this weekend about her and her family only, pisses me off to no end. I have family here this weekend too. From KY, MO, WI, IL and IN. You didn't think I may want to be able to spend time with them... But now I get to play friggen host to 20+ people at my house. You didn't even talk to me about this before you told your mom sure, we'd love to have a reunion. LIE! if your mother wants a reunion, she can host it herself and pay for it.

You'd think getting that out I'd feel better. Nope I'm still so pissed off I could scream.
