Re: Friday Frustrations

  • I have a client who's biological parent is possibly losing her battle to cancer.  He just found out she was sick a couple of weeks ago.  Ugh.  Sad.

    Other than that, I am annoyed I have class tomorrow all day.  My BFF wants to out to dinner tomorrow night for her bday and my H "doesn't know" if he wants to go.  Ugh.  I hate going places solo!

  • Oooohhh....  I need to get some complaining out!!!

    I've had a cold all.friggin.week.  It came on last Thursday, and I've been sick since.  I was supposed to meet a friend and her two kids at the museum yesterday, go to a huge local playdate today, and have a friend and her baby over tonight.  Yeah, well - people don't want to bring their kids around sick mommies.  UGHHHH!!!  Now to top it off - Fin started getting a stomach bug yesterday and has a fever.

    THEEEENNNN.... I was getting ready to go to bed and my leg was itching.... checked my knees, and sure enough!  I have stinkin' HIVES!!!!!  And when I went to feed Fin this morning, I noticed his nose is getting all stuffy too!

    Also, we need to buy a new (used) car, and we said we'd do it the 1st of the year.  But it sucks to look for a car when you're sick, and babysitters keep falling through.  I hate shopping for cars and I hate used sales people....  I am dreading this, but we REALLY need a car

  • Well my Friday's over (had to take the dog to the vet this afternoon, so had a short day at work), so that's good.  The bad news--- laundry, dishes, and crap everywhere.  Also, need to grocery shop (more of a production than it sounds-- it's cash only and I'm out of cash, so I need to go to the bank first, blah blah blah).  But the worse part... our W2s are in, so I think I need to work on taxes.  It's gonna hurt.  Sigh.

  • nevermind...i don't have to do the 2010 data unless the auditors request it. WAHOO. now i have to find something else to complain about.

    cleaning. i hate it. i hate laundry. i hate vacuuming, i hate toilets. H just showed me a 3500 sq ft house in our price range (it's a short sale...we're not rollin' in dough or anything) and i was like.."NO! i'm NOT cleaning all that house!"

  • People who don't know how to carry out simple tasks at work.  People who's poor work reflects badly on me.  And people who's poor work makes me have to spend my days getting yelled at and having to pick up the pieces.  You get paid more than I do...learn how to do your job.
  • The whole SAHM saga need I say more? haha buuuut I was figuring all of our expenses wrong and came up with 150 more weee and from what H actually made last year it would be an additional 1000 on top of the bare minimum I gave so heh he's in for it this weekend.

    We're refinancing so I get the credit liabilties break down and for some reason a credit card that's H's ex is still on there under his name!  We noticed this back when we were refinancing in 09 (that fell through of course) and H called and got himself removed as an authorized user so why in the f is he still on it?  She pays and stuff so it hasn't hurt his credit I don't think but it's still 2500 more in liabilities that aren't ours which could potentially help his credit some more and get us a better rate...ugh

    I know.  It has literally snowed everyday but maybe 2 since December 1.  And there's nothing but snow in the forecast.  I must have seasonal depression.

    oh yeah, we will NOT be able to afford a cleaning lady when we buy a house. in a moment i'm sure he will not remember, H said he would clean it all. translation: it will always be dirty. we're looking at it on Saturday but it is WAY too big for us.

  • I am annoyed that I tore down wallpaper over a year ago and DH hasn't even tried to make time to help me paint. Audrey's birthday is in 5 weeks! My house is embarassingly dirty and even worse than that it is mid-remodel in like 5 rooms. sigh. everything with our bathroom has been on hold bc of my grandpa and my dad being at hospice all weekends with my mom. that part, i understand but why can't dh and i get some painting done? anyone love painting? we have purchased primer and paint for 2 bathrooms, the living room and the hallway. multiple of these places currently are completely bare.... we tore down the wallpaper a year ago. sigh.
  • Every year I get annoyed at employers who wait until the very end of January to send out W2s.  WTF.  I know they have until the 31st, but still.  The gym I worked for (for all of one month in 2010) and is owned by a large hospital had W2s ready the first week of Jan.  J's job had them ready the first week as well.  And yet here I am waiting for the merchandising company I worked for to finally send theirs out... I just called payroll to make sure I didn't have to get it online (like I did with the gym) and wasn't informed and they said, "Oh no, but they are getting mailed out today."  Goddamnit.  I just want to get DONE with the effin taxes.
     
    I pulled a muscle in my side yesterday.  No idea how.  All I did was stand up.  WTF again.  It feels better when I apply pressue, but I can't exactly wrap an ace bandage around me right now, can I?  ha.
     
    I have about forty bajillion things I want to do today.  But I am waiting for Gabby to eat before we can even get started.  That's why I am here.  And I'm waiting on a FedEx shipment and they are usually here by 9:30.  Where are theyyyy??  Gah!!!
     
    Ok I'll shut up now.

    I totally feel you on this.  I've been ready since the beginning of the month to do our taxes.  We got H's pt job online, but we've been waiting on his ft job and mine from the Census.  We finally got mine today, but still waiting on his other one.  

    I'm impatient to get them done so we know how much we're getting back.  We badly need a knew car, but there isn't any point in shopping till we know how much money we have to work with.  

  • Dealing with our soon to be ex landlord is stressing me out! At this point I've asked H to handle all communications with her as its just too much on top of everything else. She's cancelled day of on more than 6 appointments to show our place over the last 2 weeks. Ugh.
    I also have a co-irker that's putting me right over the edge this week. She's a know it all and a sneak. I don't like it.

  • 1. trying to work at the office and Gigi refuses to sleep in any other place than my arms.

    2. My dad has been borrowing my car for a week and I tought today I would drop him off and I got to bring my car with me to work and instead he droped me off...gotta love my daddy....oh and since he lost his job(due to the family issue) he is now here with me at this office and he is going over all the policies and regulations and just stressing me out! Haha

    3. Hubby bringing all his friends over (to the garage) when my house is a mess( yes i panic even if they don't come inside)

    4. Not having someone help me clean my house! Seriously I cant work, take care of the baby and clean!The problem is I don't know anyone that wants to go clean it!I didn't want to but I guess I have to announce it in the newspaper.

    5. Hmm. I guess not having my old salary....it's hard making it with half of the pay check. But Cole is inspiring me! haha

  • 1. Incompetent people at work. I was dealing with a kid today and these classroom aides (who were just sitting there) were criticizing me for how I was handling it. This kid is new to our school, I've never seen him before, and the best you can tell me is "we just don't deal with it". You can tell me how to do my job when you get off your a** and do yours. I know its my job to help, but walking the kid back to his area every 5 minutes is something I think you can handle.

    2. The boy is haivng this huge jealousy fit because I hung out with 2 of my guy coworkers last weekend. With a group of a few other people. Today he took something I said the wrong way and flipped out on me. I don't even know how he misinterpretted what I said unless he wasn't listening to me. And he won't tell me that its bothering him. He just blows up at me for stupid stuff and I'm getting really annoyed with him for it.

  • People having the flu (literally puking) and then coming in to work next day. I've had literally 6 people do this to me this week and are all talking to me and up in my space and then decide to fill me in that they had the "bug" that's going around and threw up for a whole day. I so do not want to get it, but they're all putting the odds against me! (...and they're real estate agents so it's not like they HAVE to be at the office - they work from home 90% of the time anyway).
