Spending $$$ we don't have on sh*t we don't need...

I never realized until here recently that I am an emotional shopper. Especially if I am depressed. And then I get even more depressed if we don't have $$$ to spend :( Nothing major. I would be quite content with $5 right now. And it is driving me nuts we don't have it!!! Nobody is  to blame. We had bills to pay and the move. Just sucks :( I guess maybe I am a spoiled brat after all.

We are moved :)

Thank the Gods!!! I am actually excited about being back at my family home. Not so much having to live with my mom again, but hey!!! At least the stress of having to worry about losing the house is gone. And mom is getting pretty bad. I give her til maybe fall and then she won't physically be able to work anymore. And that's stretching it, I think. The cartilage in her wrists is completely gone. Total bone on bone there and it's hurting her pretty bad. She can't hardly use them now without it killing her. Then sometime soon she has to go in for cataract surgery. She.is almost completely blind in her left eye and that's the good one!!!

I have also come to realize how tiring it is going to be to have to stay on top of the kids. They have a really bad habit of just leaving stuff out and not picking up after themselves. Yes, I know I am to blame because I have pretty much done it for them their entire lives. But I think they are old enough to start doing it for themselves. And with that said...we will see. Sometimes it is just sooooo much easier to do it myself than to wait on or have to argue with someone else to get it done.

Our room is tiny lol but we have plans to turn the garage into one, if not two, more rooms. It will take probably about $3000 to do it right. If we can just hang tough til next tax time *sigh* it shouldn't be an issue. Fingers crossed that Rick actually keeps his job long enough to file taxes *rolls eyes*

I am loving not having the Crowley inside. I love the brute, but I really just don't have the patience to house break a puppy. Especially one that  poops like a damned horse!!! Gross!!! Not too mention mom already has 3 smaller inside dogs. Yeah. Doggy overload!!!

But really that's about it for now. Think I am getting ready to call it a night. Curl up in my nice comfy bed and enjoy the fact that I don't have to go to sleep with the non too pleasant aroma of mildew to keep me awake.

Have a wonderful night. XoxoxoxoX

R.I.P Gremmy :'(

Gremmy was hit by a car tonight and was killed :'( I am so heartbroken over this loss. He was a part of our family and will be missed sooooooo much. My heart hurts sooooooo bad right now.

Life at this moment blows chunks...

Well, guess what? We are moving yet again :'( I love the house we are in and have wanted it forever, but the landlord is pulling some douchy moves. Like trying to get us to pay for water and electric overages that are not our fault. Grr!!! There's no way that's even conceivable that it could be. So, we will be out Friday hopefully. Going to rent a U-Haul and put most everything in storage and call it good. Sucky part? We are having to move back in with my mom. Ugh!!! Not looking forward to it at all, but as of right now we really don't have a choice. On the plus side, we won't lose my dad's house. Mom is getting pretty bad and probably won't be able to work much longer. So, that's one security issue I won't have. Now, if we can just survive without killing each other!!!

Our cell phones will be shut off April 4. Which really really really sux!!! I am not sure as to why either. I don't think they explained to Derek clearly either. But since they are disconnecting us early, they are charging us penalties for it. WTF?!?

National came and got our new desktop and our beautiful TV. But I am pretty sure we are going to be getting them back within the next few weeks. Hopefully. Cell phones and internet have to come first, because I have stuff going on Ebay that I cannot get out of right now.

Just when things start looking up again...ugh!!! So, sick of it!!! I know we aren't the only ones having troubles. But it hits pretty hard when it is you. I rey to keep an open mind and a positive outlook on things, but truthfully it's really hard to do at times. I feel as though I have reached my maximum for discouraging situations. I just keeping thinking it has to get better soon right? Man, I hope so :'(

Anyways, that's what is going on. Hopefully if I do lose internet connection, it won't be for long. I will not only be screwed but I will actually go crazy I believe lol. It is pretty much my lifeline to those close to me.

So not ready for summer :(

It's only March and our temperatures are already reaching the upper 80's and 90's!!! This has me worried. Especially after the lack of winter that we had. I hate the heat anyways, so knowing that this could very well be a worse summer than last, makes me sad. It was almost too hot to do anything. Went to the creek a couple times last year, but it was too hot to spend any real time out. We couldn't go camping :( not with the temperatures at night sitting in the mid 90's all night. That would have made for a seriously miserable time. And it isn't looking so good for this year already. Ugh!!! The only plus is that we actually live closer to the water this summer, but I am thinking it's going to be too hot to let the kids walk the less than a mile to salvation. Cabin fever here we come :(

I am also hoping that this AC unit we do have is going to be enough to keep us cool. It got to 90° today and stayed fairly decent upstairs. Downstairs for the most part stays cooler than up. But will it be enough when the scorching heat is constant? Most of the windows upstairs do NOT open. Or come out to put in another window unit in. Except maybe in the diningroom. So, I dunno, how well this is going to go. I already know that I am going to have to invest in ALOT of aluminum foil and duct tape to get these windows at least somewhat weatherized. BAH!!!
