Just a bad morning
I sometimes deceive myself into thinking I will never have a bad moment, or day, or morning or what ever. I think they are just a fact of life. No one is happy every day all day long. I was fine when I woke up. I was fine when Katey came back in because she had forgotten her schedule and I was fine when I hopped out of bed and drove her back to the bus stop, just in case the bus came and maybe she wouldn't miss it. We made it fine. I think I lost it when I projected something onto Alan, because he was "playing around" and said something to me. God love his heart to have to deal with me sometime. I think I am still a little mad, but I can see where I am wrong. Any way, I was avoiding doing anything I "had" to do and found this article on IWon.com. I hope I am not that bad, really. There were some good ideas in there, but at the end when it told about how a lady ran around her house spraying windex to make her house smell clean when she knew company was coming, made me laugh.
So, I went to my first all day long punk rock concert. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Meaghan and I saw a lot of cool Mohawks. I think I could do that. And some really funny looking people trying to be cool. But the highlight for me was Meaghan getting so excited to see Good Charlotte. I know she is a grounded young lady and I don't worry about her "loving" Billy, the lead guitarist. He is kind of cute, in that very young punker kind of way. She was so excited. It was neat to share that with her.
I think there is something dead in the wall of my bathroom closet. I came home the other night and as I was using the bathroom, I heard this scratching coming from somewhere. I listened, because it was random, and found it coming from where the stench is now coming from. It is so gross! Just to think that I had mice in the house anyway, and now one of them or something died and is stinky in the wall. Alan said it would go away. I sure hope it doesn't spread throughout the house. YUCK!
So, I am a little frustrated at that, and we are behind, already, in school, and my house is destroyed, again, and I have given up, once again, on getting my room clean and in order and having a nice place for me and Alan. Just way too much stuff and no where to put it all. To have a yard sale or not, just to pack it up and give it away or not. One day, one day.
I need to get out of here and go get Conor and McKenzie from their grandparents house. And I want to call my friend Linda to come hang out but I have to clean the house first, so I won't be mortally humilitated at her seeing the squalor I live in. We have potluck tonight and I am going to stop by the store and pick up a few things to finish the recipe of what I am going to make tonight. Times a waisting.
