Tirade Tuesday

I am SO ready to be done with work! I am tired of dealing with people who don't have or use common sense. I hate that I'm working up until I go into labor because it means I don't have a definite end in sight. I could go out tomorrow or I could be here for another, gulp, 3 weeks. Please tell me I'm not going to be here another 3 weeks.

Oh and yes, I realize this post comes off SUPER whiny.

Who else has something they feel like complaining about?

Re: Tirade Tuesday

  • I decided that K & G can't sleep in my bed every night & now G is rebelling by sleeping under the bed & making weird noises all night. Super annoying. K tries to be super sneaky by jumping up in the bed with me in the middle of the night, but I catch him every time.

  • I was supposed to go to a MS dinner/presentation with my mom tonight that was being done by her neurologist, but it was canceled. I understand that this guy is really busy (he's the head of neurology), but my mom was so excited about this and I'm annoyed for her. She's struggling so much lately and every time things seem to get a little better, she has a set back. This was just something small that was going to put her in a better mood.

    I also feel really guilty because I'm struggling to be supportive. I love my mom and I'm trying really hard but sometimes it's exhausting. She seems so unhappy all the time and it can be overwhelming trying to listen and prop her up. I feel like a horribly selfish person for feeling this way but I can't help it. It just makes me incredibly sad because my mom has become a completely different person and I miss the person she used to be. I realize I'm incredibly lucky to still have her in my life but it's still hard. Ok...done with my pity party.

    ETA: I'm pretty sure this isn't the first time I've posted this on the board so forgive me for being a broken record.

  • Don't feel bad, lucky. It's a completely human reaction. Your mom is really lucky to have you, and I am sure your support helps her immensely. The fact that it doesn't always come as easily doesn't change that.

  • I'm sorry Lucky. My dad has Parkinson's so I know what it's like to try to support a parent with a degenerative disease.

    I really want a new (used) car. I just don't think it's the right time. I think I'm going to try to save what my estimated car payment would be every month until the first of the year so I can make sure I can swing it. I'm positive I can, but I know I might be able to find a better deal at the first of the year anyways. All signs seem to point to wait, so I'll wait, but it sucks.

    Its starting to piss me off and freak me out that I have no definitive plan right now besides finish my degree, but even that is vague because of my stupid advisors. Ive never not had a plan. Obviously my previous plans didn't work out for me, but I'm getting worried I'm missing out on life in this crazy holding pattern. It's almost been a year, I should be doing more than just going to school by now. Ugh.

    I STILL haven't closed on my house. Damn Florida Housing, damn them!!

  • Thanks guys. I have to constantly remind myself that it could always be worse but sometimes it just overwhelms me and I get really down about it. I'm hoping to spend some fun time with my mom this week since the dinner was canceled.

  • I feel like my head or mouth could explode at any point. I took my work stress out on DH last night and I feel terrible. Screw the wonder weeks, my sweet little boy isn't acting to sweet currently.
