I'm irritated.

Perhaps because my friends borrowed the entire set of one of my most cherished TV show on DVD collection and they've had it for over a month now with no intention of returning it any time soon.

Or maybe because I just want the birthday party to be over with. I feel bad for Amanda because this is her day - but my friends with the kids that were supposed to come (Ironically the ones that have my DVDs) can't make it now because they both have to work and the kids will be with her IL's) so now she won't have any kids there, and as I said before, my IL's make HER party about THEM. Mike said our friends could drop the kids off and they could just stay the night but I vetoed that.  I'm going to be stressed out enough entertaining 44 people, so the last thing I need is to deal with a wild 9 and 6 year old overnight to boot, then have to worry about getting out and finding them something for breakfast the next day too.  I already told him we'll have them stay another night but not this one! 

Whatever it is, I'm in a mood today that I just can't shake.  Hopefully my walk will help get rid of it tonight.  It's nice out.

Re: I'm irritated.

  • Hey sorry i didn't respond to your message on FB. 

    Regardless, Amanda will have a great birthday!  I can understand your frustration though. Does Amanda have any school friends that can come?

  • Your walk will help!! At least it's nice out and you can enjoy being outside/exercising to let those endorphins flowwwww. My walks with the dog have been thwarted for like 3 nights now due to storms. Boo Florida in the summer.

    Anyway this will be over sooooooooooooooon!

  • :( sorry! I hope your personal rain cloud goes away! (I know the feeling I've had days like that too!)
  • I'm sure your walk will do wonders.  I'll be sending some vibes your way that the family stays in line!

  • I find that punching something makes me feel better. Just make sure it isn't a person.

    Or have an extra glass of wine with dinner tonight. That's makes everything LOADS better

  • Thanks all! :) Yeah we definitely need vibes now that all the SILs are fighting again. Well, 2 of them are mad at another.  Ugh...I'm so glad he knows how to handle his family.

    These are the days where I want to sit on the couch and pop in an In Living Color DVD and laugh my azz off at Wanda the Ugly Woman and Homey D Clown.....but wait - I can't do that because J and S took 'em all!  :-/

  • I think you need to just say oh I'm in the neighborhood can I swing by for my DVDs that may be the only way to get them back.
  • I hope that your walk helped out, stuff like that always helps to get rid or my rain clouds  :)

    I agree about just calling your friend up and saying that you are in the neighborhood and plan to stop by to pick up the DVD's.

  • Went to the gym instead of walking & got engrossed in a book while riding the bike. It helped somewhat. Then I came home and made a graet dinner & had some red wine so I felt better. I'm probably being a brat about the DVDs but it just annoys me that people borrow something then wait months to give it back. I think we're giong over there next weekend because she's off 5 days & suggested we come over with Amanda and cook out and swim before they close their pool, so I will take back what I can when I'm there. Even if I take back 2 seasons and let him burn the other 2 then we can switch out.

  • It's very easy to get annoyed when someone doesn't return what is yours. One of my friends borrowed an amazing copy of a book I had and I never got it back. That was maybe 6 years ago. I have a friend that has borrowed a couple of things and hasn't returned them yet, but I'm sure if I ask her she would return them. It's just annoying sometimes!
