My Toyota is dying
One of the cats I'm pet sitting is dying.

My phone has not worked for 5 days with NO solution in sight. Time Warner...grrrrrr.

My furnace is spewing fumes and has been intermittently for 5 days. Repair guy finally on the way.

I must move by April 1 but my car is unreliable to travel 20 miles south or 40 miles north to look at rentals. I live in a black hole where snow-mobilers fall through the ice because they are fucking morAns.

Oh...and my sister decided to stop communicating with me after our family reunion...lol. Why am I not surprised?

Kill me N O W !

8. I'm sorry, graywarrior....
I can feel your pain (especially about your sister). That's a big loss to her. I have a sister like that and it really hurt me for many years. Don't let it hurt you. It's their loss. I'm sort of a lurker in the lounge (too shy to post much), but I have seen many of your posts and pics, and i think you're a beautiful person inside and out.

Chin up (my sista).

:hug:

11. well there you go.....
Edited on Thu Mar-05-09 04:07 PM by SeaLyons
that is wonderful.

Tell her she's a crazy bitch for making you feel like she didn't want anything to do with you. No, don't do that. That's what I would do, and that's probably why my sister hasn't spoken to me in years. :rofl:


:hi:

15. Crawl into the covers, get cozy, and read a book, even if it's a silly one
.
.
.

I find reading much more relaxing than watching tv - no commercials

and library books cost nothing, well unless ya take them back late

grab a good book, a little bucket of snacks on the side

works for me - the world disappears

(unless it's a real shitty book)

:silly:
