Crazies

Soooo, I guess I am not cut out to be nice to people. I try sometimes and it bites me in the ass. Like lately, I added this girl (I'll call her R) to my facebook because we had a couple of mutual friends. (Usually I don't) So she starts telling me all the horrible things that have happened to her etc. (There is a lot!!!!) She was attacked, awful childhood, bad relationships etc. So I try to be nice, supportive, while keeping some distance. Because one of our mutual friends (I'll call him C) told me R has "attachment issues" meaning she latches on to anyone she sees as a friend. So last night R asks for my home address to 'send me something'. I refused because 1. I think that C has a point (she showed up on his doorstep one night claiming she had been assaulted in Boston. - 2+ hours away). 2. I am uneasy giving that information to anyone - especially now I have kids. And 3. I am starting to get tired and annoyed by her rantings. She has self esteem issues and other baggage. So I basically told her no and she started to wig out a little. I mentioned keeping my kids safe - she took it as I thought she'd hurt my kids. Etcetera, etc., etc... I am just tired of defending my position, so I unfriended her, told her to have a nice life. I guess I am just not as nice as I would like to be. Oh well, I am nice to the people who REALLY matter in my life. If you start whining too much I will tell you to shut up, as long as you promise to do the same to me.

Been a long day, we went to Mom & Dad's for breakfast and lunch and went grocery shopping. Did laundry and showered at the 'rents. Kids are now in bed - S never took a nap today so she was extra tired, and even though MJ took a nap she is passed out as well. MJ ate a whole jar of ham, pineapple and rice baby food tonight. Right. Before. Bed. Love it, she'll sleep good tonight, and hopefully so will I.

I got John addicted to Backyard Monsters. He built his yard and is now attacking random people. I'm so proud! He admitted he was having more fun attacking than just sitting around. ROFL. OK - time to go attack some backyards. and tend to my frontier, farm and cafe... Work, work, work...

Day by day

The days are either flying by or dragging. There is no middle ground. Generally it seems the weekend days are the winged ones. I suppose I should be glad everyday is like a weekend for me and I am not working but I miss it in a way. To have something to do, somewhere to go. But I sit here in the house, a/c on and try to stay cool. I hate the heat and humidity. I hate sweating (unless I am exercising). Worse yet it drains my energy and my motivation to do the slightest thing around the house. I haven't felt like doing much of anything for the last couple of weeks. I intend to consume large quantities of caffeine tomorrow and get some laundry done. Folding is my nemesis. I hate it more than the washing, weird huh? Time for some shut eye - last night I fell asleep after 12, dogs woke me up at 3 and baby shortly after that. *Yawn*

Melatonin? Riiiiiight...

Well, I took 3 melatonin pills tonight. Still awake at midnight. I am so not tired. Maybe partially cuz I am still irritated with hubby. He gets angry with me because he says I have all day to be on the computer. Not true, but more opportunities than he does. So when he gets home he makes a bee-line for the laptop. Which would be fine except for S. She wants Daddy's attention. So when he ignores her she is deliberately "bad". Then I get stuck disciplining her while he is online. Not fair. So I called him on it tonight and he was bitchy. Because I can go online "whenever I want" again not true, and he only gets a few hours a night. Too bad. Blah. Anyway I suppose I will go use the restroom and try to catch some zzzz. At least until MJ wakes up in a couple of hours.
