Ok, so we've got a week till we go on vacation. I'm more than ready! Just need to figure out how the hell we're going to get all the stuff into my van! It'll be ok....trying not to stress! Yeah right! Me not stress...there's a joke!
I haven't posted since last weekend. I had to go to the dr. this week, for a terrible pain I've been dealing with in my right hand, and I'm told it's tendonitis, and I have to go back this afternoon for an xray. It has been hurting all week, but it's not bad today. Doesn't it figure! They won't see anything on the xray, then as soon as I am done and gone from the dr. office, it will flair up again. My luck for sure!
I just cleaned out my van. Traveling with a child sure does tear up a car. Well, my 23 & 22 yr olds aren't the tidiest either! In my car anyway. I totally threw out just about everything inside my van, and all that's left is to vacuum, but I really don't feel like that right now. Gotta run some errands in a bit, and need to stop sweating from the work I just did! I hate being menopausal!
Guess that's it. I am very boring for the most part! Have a great weekend! Happy Vacation to you YankeeBob!!!

The Man's Job?
Ok, so why is it that there are those few household tasks totally considered the "man's job?" When I'm asked why my boyfriend doesn't grill, I tell them that I love to cook and love to use the grill. It's not like he can't, but it's just something I do for my family! And the grass cutting.....do you even realize how much soul searching, mind clearing, time to yourself you get when you cut grass.....and some exercise! Now, while I have no problem doing the garbage, he can have that! ha ha! I get it all together and he takes it to the dump.
Most people don't know that I was married for nearly 13 years, and yes, most of the tasks listed above were designated as Greg's. That even included the bills/checkbook! When you are forced into the life as the head of family as I was, you learn quickly that these tasks are now your's and you step up and do them......you have no other choice!
When I hear, "why are you grilling, or why are you cutting grass", I get pretty offended, and just give them a direct answer, rude sometimes, but I can't help it! Yes, I love being a woman, love being treated like one, etc.
Just needed to get that off my chest!! I am woman!!! ha ha

My Friday!!
Well, today is my Friday, and I've got a 3 day weekend ahead of me. I love Thursdays. It's not only my Friday, but it's my payday too! I love getting paid every week! Sure does make things nice. Would be nice to get more in my paycheck, but I can't complain. Love my job, my boss, and the hours rock! Not too many have a 3 day weekend every week, and if a holiday falls on a Monday, I'm down for a 4 day weekend! Woo hooo!!
Not sure what I'll get into this weekend. Landen, my grandson, is at his father's this weekend, then Elizabeth, my 23 year old daughter will be going to the town where Landen is, and will attend a wedding that Landen is in, then she will be going to Raleigh N.C. for the night to see her friend.
Steven, my 22 yr. old son will be working all weekend. He works a lot of hours at Dollar General, but seems to enjoy his job, and I know the customers there like him a lot! I did a good job raising this one! He's very polite, and the old ladies love that! ha ha! I wish I could get him to get a driver's license! Don't ask!!!! UGH!
Pat, the boyfriend is going to his Dad's on Sunday. I was invited, but I opted out! I will have most of Sunday to myself, and the mood I've been in lately could really use a day of rest and time for just me!
I'll get all the housework done tomorrow, as normal for a Friday. I love being able to do that, and again, with no interuptions for the peanut gallery that live in the house! Love my family, but I love time for me! Even if it's doing laundry, vacuumming, mopping, etc!!
Anyway, I guess it's time to just do the veg thing again. I do need to do dishes, but that can be done later. Right now I don't want to do anything! Man I'm in a rut!!!
Till next time!

I'm new to this!
Hello! This is the very first blog here, and I'm clueless as to what I want to write! Guess it really doesn't matter, just trying to get this started.
Today was kind of busy at work. It's always busier for the dentist than me, but I had to do the insurance claims, deal with idiot phone calls from people that obviously have no idea how to take care of their teeth, and just the normal day happenings!
Came home, got dinner ready, cleaned up some, but I get tired of doing the same shit every day, and let someone else finish cleaning! Just didn't feel like it tonight!
Now it's 9pm-ish, and I'm just sitting here typing, and listening to the sound of silence, only to be interupted by the tapping on the keyboard! Kind of nice to be alone, and erase everything from your mind! I could get used to this!!!
Ok, so I'm done for now, gonna get comfy clothes on, and veg until bed time!!!
Night! :)
