Friday Grumbles

I notice the boards are slowing down a bit.  And since the weekend is quickly approaching us (Come on 4 o'clock!!), I thought if we had any grumbles going in to the weekend, we should get rid of them and enjoy ourselves.

 I'll start:

I grumble at my mom who was considerate enough to create a spring break vacation for her and my two sisters, but was not considerate enough to ask me to come with.  I was asked to take care of the pets while they were gone.

    I'd be doing more than grumbing! Wow, that's horrible. I'm sorry they did that to you. :(

    My grumble -

    I feel really out of it today. I can't seem to get it together today. I just feel "out of it". I think it's the weather. Maybe I'll go home and take a nap.

    How old are your sisters?  If they're younger and still live at home, I totally understand this.  However, if they're both older and live on their own that's just rude!

  • They are 21, and yes they both live at home (again).  I flat out told my mom that I was not impressed that I didn't even get asked... and she replied that DH and I didn't invite her to go on any of our vacations either.

    Wow, what did you say?  Does she realize that her going on vacation with you and your husband is not remotely like you going on vacation with you mom and sisters?  Confused 

    My grumble is that whenever we have a camping trip planned, the weather ends up sucking.  And then when the weather is supposed to be nice, we can't go camping.  Wish we could fit our foster dog in the tent with us.

    Your foster dog is adorable!!  We take our dog camping too, but she has to come in the tent at night or she gets into trouble like skunks and nosey neighbors.

  • Grumble:  I'm tired.  I hit snooze too many times this morning and feel kind of groggy from half-sleeping for about an hour. 

    ETA:  Grumble expansion:  If I complain about feeling tired, having a headache, or having a stomach ache my mom immediately thinks I'm pregnant.  SOMETIMES IT IS JUST A HEADACHE MOM!

    Thanks!  We haven't taken him camping yet.  I wouldn't leave a dog outside at night and there's no way he can fit in the tent with us - he's 120 lbs!   Of course someone from the rescue babysat him last weekend when the weather sucked and now this weekend is going to be great but we have him.  Boo.
