OK ladies, posts your vents here so the rest of our week can be happy stuff

My big vent right now is that it is just too cold outside! It's in the single digits with some wicked wind. Ugh! My toes are still cold even after being inside work for over 30 minutes. And I'm not happy that the potential blizzard that was said to be hitting on Wednesday is now being called a wintery mix. I'll take snow but I despise ice!

Lisa, I couldn't agree more. I was none to happy when my car told me it was 0 when i left my house this morning. BRRRRR!!!

Other that than, I'm annoyed that I'm so tired lately, but I know what that is...stupid work taking over my life and wasting my sleeping time.

I am irritated everyone keeps telling me I need to take care of myself and take time out for myself. Yeah well when? My husbands had severe sciatica this past week where he's can't even move.He also had duty this weekend. My son is non stop go, really throwing tantrums now. I can't handle from lack of sleep. I've been working 3-11 and having to stay late because the facility is full and the patients seem to becoming more and more demented or anxious. I'm not sleeping. I come home and my house is a mess, the apartments have mice, so i just feel disgusting and need to clean.

Our navy counselor told me to send him to daycare. the whole purpose of us working opposite shifts was so we didn't have to do that. I also don't want to leave him with the sitter in the morning because I would love to see him. lol.

Maybe I can find some headphones and just wear them all day.

I'm also venting about the weather. WTF. My car said ti was -3 at one point on my way to work this morning and I've been sitting here with my space heater on under my desk since 6am and I'm finally just now not freezing my butt off.

DH and I need to move. Now.

I am hating this cold too! But at least it was not as windy this morning. I also saw that this "huge" storm seems like it is going to fizzle out. I hate when they get our hopes up and then they are wrong.

Also, I have been so tired lately. I am tired of being tired! And I am not complaining about everything I have to do. I am handling it fine. I just find that come 7:30-8, I just want to lay down.

I'll jump on the "I hate winter" bandwagon. I am SO sick of the cold, wind, snow and ice that I could scream.

DH started a new job about two months ago. He's doing the same work but for a different firm (we used to work together). He is working a ton of hours, and our busy season just started. I'm afraid he is going to get burned out really quickly. And I miss him...I guess that's the part I really wanted to vent about.

And for my final vent of the day - we have 9 new associates at my firm. While this will be fantastic at this time next year, right now it's awful. No one knows what they're doing yet and I have to spend so much time teaching people how to do things. It's just making it really hard to get my work done - tax season is hard enough as it is, and this just makes it worse.

I, too, am on the I-hate-Winter-band wagon. Enough already!!

Today, at work, my job, I forged signatures. I was told I had to do this. We're putting a media package together for a bunchhhh of clients. They specifically asked for a wet signature on the letter from the president. He didn't want to sign all of the papers.... so I got to do it for him. All 850 of them. WTF? Why is this ok??! Neeeed to job-hunt.

slpmay03 · January 2011

My main vent right now is work. I feel like I am one of the only ones who gives my all and others let everyone else do their work or don't work their hardest. Also, DH has not started packing and we are moving on Sat!!!! His mom is coming in to help later in the week.

elishabelle · January 2011

Totally on the sick of winter bandwagon!

Also, bummed that DH is going out of town again on Wednesday. Also, super bummed that he gets to stay with my cousin and her bf in CA, while I freeze in VA. He's had business out of town twice a month for the past 3 months...over it. On the other hand I am very happy that this is the last of the scheduled trips for awhile.

Totally jumping on the I hate cold weather bandwagon. But my main vent is about my health, totally related to my earlier post. I just can't seem to get healthy. I am really overworked (my short days are 11 hour days, my long days are 14-15 hour days) and I don't sleep enough. I miss my husband because I'm so busy that I don't get to spend enough time with him, and because this is ALL work related, it's not going away until the end of March.

Vent #2 - I have a channel cut setting for both my e-ring and my wedding band (little round diamonds through the band). One of the small stones in the e-ring fell out today - the same frickin one that fell out last year!! I have to get it fixed, but I'm thinking there's a problem with the setting and it needs to be re-set. Not happy.

A moan, not a vent, just a sad. My step-grandma passed away Friday night. The funeral and burial were yesterday, and we began sitting shiva yesterday. I haven't taken a bereavement day yet because it's the last week in the marking period, but that's part of the stress from the earlier post as well. DH and I just feel like we were ambushed this weekend.

Sorry to hear about your ste-grandma
