Re: Hump Day Venting
My back and hips are so sore, I can hardly move.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
This week is killing me.
I got in a car accident on Saturday, and it is causing me all kids of issues. I got a ticket at class last night because I forgot to get my parking pass out of my car before they towed it, I can't get in and out of my complex for the same reason - my clicker is still in my car. I had to spend all my free time Monday taking care of the rental car. Blah, blah. .
Then I am SWAMPED at work. It's ridiculous. I have WASC, grades due, piles of work, squirely kids, sub plans, and a MESS of a room.
Then, I have standing appt on Mondays, that I had to reschedule for this work meeting. I rescheduled for today...then I get an e-mail that we are having another meeting today. F. I can't get out of the meeting. I can't get out of my appt. I don't really know what to do.
I have NO time to get ready for my trip...I need to do laundry and pack and there is literally NO time to get this done in addition to everything else I have going on.
I'm so frustrated.
Ugh. I feel your pain there. That's a whole other headache for me, too.

I got my renewal paperwork for my car registration and it's INSANE. I drive an Acura, not a BMW. I can't believe how much they've increased the cost. Great timing with Christmas right around the corner!
And this is more of a vent as to how clueless I am...I only just realized in reading a Vanity Fair article Rob Pat is British. Apparently I completely forgot he was in HP, and have never seen him in an interview. Sometimes I amaze myself!
We estimated our travel expenses for this year and I just about passed out. No wonder we both feel broke. And nowhere in there is a real vacation, just weddings, funerals, and family holidays!
Jess you sound mizzo.
And Joy GL with that.
I have no venting yet. I'm still high on endorphins for some reason. I think it's all the free meals I've gotten lately.
Sorry Joy, Cort & Jess.
I'm irritated with my BSC aunt who causes drama with my mom. Every couple of years she flies off the handle and refuses to speak with my mom which causes all kinds of uncomfortable situations with the rest of the fam.
I'm stressed beyond belief about the whole house thing & figuring out our financing. If we go the easytoclose route, we will be stretched to our limit in terms of finances and will be very house poor for a couple of months. If we go with the comfortablebutdifficult route we will have more wiggle room, but it may not fly the with bank. It's never easy.
I grit my teeth while I tell myself to count my blessings.
i'm in a stupidly fantastic mood today.
sorry
Nothing specific, I'm just in a general grumpy mood.
