~620~ I'm BAAACK!

Wednesday afternoon my computer finally went down and stayed down....I really didn't think there was any hope for it to be saved, I phoned my brother to see if he knew of anyone that could look at it and tell what if it was worth fixing or should I just start saving now in hopes that I could afford a new one in a few months...He told me that yes he did know of someone but it would take a couple of weeks.....meh Okay. then I was walking with the boys to get an ice cream and we passed this little hole in the wall computer shop, I decided to go in and ask a few questions....I told the guy what my computer has been doing and what it did just before it gave up completely....He said that it sounded like he could fix it....I was doubtful but I brought it in the next day (Thursday) settled on a price and by this (Friday) afternoon it was FIXED! YAY! I went to see Sex In The City the movie, I really enjoyed it, for me it wrapped everything up nicely.

Okay I'm off to catch up with all you guys.

~619~ I wish

My nieghbours to get it that thier livingroom shares a wall with my bedroom, and that just because they mow my backyard once in a while doesn't give them the right to keep me up until all hours, I would also like for them to realise they are ADULTS and shouldn't be playing video games ALL night.
Tessa would NOT to wake me up asking where her drawings (that she REFUSES to let me see in the first place.) are.
Not to be called at 7 in the morning by one of the mothers I work for on a day that I DON'T get her kids just to be asked if she can borrow a couple of eggs for the kids breakfast.....
Not to be told by Rick, "Oh yeah, I'm moving to The Island for 6 months." (The "Convertation" after that bomb was dropped maybe why the neighbours had their volume up.)
I could afford to get my computer fixed.
Leaving comments on my friends Spaces wasn't so hit and miss, I try and it only works half the time. (It's not your Spaces, it's my computer.)
I had someone to talk to that wouldn't pat me on the back and say "There there, it will get better." Or worse yet say "Well this is what you should do...." I don't NEED that, I just need someone to LISTEN and actually HEAR me.
I wasn't such a downer today......Sorry.

~617~ Saturday

It's 3:30 am.....

I went to bed as soon as the boys left last night (7:30pm) I just couldn't keep my eyes open any longer......Now I'm up, it's nice to have the house quiet and knowing I don't have to worry about the phone ringing or letting the dog out, the dog is flaked out on Tessa's bed and not about to be tempted out of her cozy little spot....LOL! And I have the headphones in listening to "RICK RADIO"......I am feeling somewhat peacful at the moment.

For the past week or so I have been feeling a bit.....disengaged is the only way I can describe it, I really need something to engage my brain.....But I can't figure out what will do that.

Earlier the boy's Mother asked if I'd watch them while she went out to dinner with friends, (after her and the older boy did his paper rout.) I said I just could'nt but Tessa said she'd do it, when the Mother left I thanked Tessa and said "I just don't want to look after the boys..."

And before I could add "Tonight." Tessa says " Win the lottery so you don't have too." I laughed and said " You know if we won the big one, we wouldn't have a home." She looked at me a little confused, and I exsplained that we wouldn't have a home because we would be traveling, she said "I don't want to be a Gypsy!"

Again I laughed and asked "What's wrong with being a Gypsy?'.....LOL! Oviously my child didn't inheret my "wonderlust."

This is taking so long to type out because the conputer keeps stalling out on me, (it's now 4:00 am) I still haven't gotten this thing looked at and I don't know when I will be able too...Oh well .

Anyway I'm still here and life is life and it keeps going on as it does.

My friend April is upset about leaving the Coast and having to find homes for all her animals, I don't mean the dogs or cats but the rabbits, chickens, rats and other small farm animals, and is a little upset with me because I seem to be on her husbands side when it comes to the animals...and I am to te point that I have always believed that she has too many animals....But that's her it always has been. Now they have to move and she has to understand that they won't have the room for her barnyard and that she is just not able to take care of them anymore.....I hope she will see that it's better for everyone to find good homes for them soon. I DO understand how hard it is for her, I grew up on a WORKING farm (never did get the point of HOBBY farms) and sometimes I still miss it, but there comes a time when you have to let go and move on, right?

OH! The new Rick Springfield album (Venus In Overdrive) is due out in July.......CAN'T WAIT! Now all I have to do is get someone to drive me to Bellingham to get it...LOL! Should be easier now that I have my passport.....<GRIN>

~616~ Friday

One more day of work, then I get TWO whole days off, because it's the long weekend. I will have an extra kid tomorrow....Yes I know I'm crazy but it's a little extra money.

My sister has put most of the trip pictures on a disk for me now and will get it out to me as soon as she can.

The cats are doing a lot better now and have gained some of the weight they lost back, the one with the ingrown claw is doing well but it looks like I may have to have theat claw completley removed, it's growing back and it looks deformed so I'm just going to keep an eye on it and price out how much it will cost to have the procedure done.

It's a BEAUTIFUL day here today, 16C- 61F (funny how that worked out eh?..LOL!) with a high of 27C- 81F. The only draw back is the humidity is quite high so around noon or so it's going to feel pretty heavy and I won't be using my oven to make dinner tonight.....Mac & Cheese anyone?... :)

The May Long Weekend is the offical start to the camping season in these parts......I don't do camping and there is a little dark and twisted part of me that is VERY glad that Rick's truck has broken down thus causing HIS long weekend camping/dirt biking plans (that didn't inclued me.) to be canceled......Is that wrong of me? *grin*

Have a great weekend all!

~614~ hi

It's a dark dreary rainy day.
Tessa has been at my Mother's for about a week, they both or just getting over the flu....AGAIN, and I told them to keep thier sickies over there. The last time we had the flu in this house it took FOREVER to go away because the kids just kept passing it back and forth.
I have actully had 3 whole days without the boys, it's been nice but the silance is getting heavy.
The Mother's Day BBQ at my brother's was nice, if you discount the billowing clouds of smoke and an ALMOST out of control fire.
I think my neighbours don't like me now, but at least I have been ble to sleep through the night.
Yes I complained to the board of the Co-Op in writing.

That's it for now

~611~ Tessa/ Father up date

Saturday Tessa had a good long talk with her Father on the phone, it appeared to go well even if he still went on about how hard his life is and how no one uderstands....Yadda Yadda. Tessa seemed to take it in stride and was able to steer the conversation in another direction.

What I don't get is how someone can only focus on the negitives in their life.

I can totally understand having a bad day, week or even a month. God know I've had them myself.....But even at my lowest I could always find something to be thankful for even if it was only the fact I had cream for my coffee that day, at least I found SOMETHING.

To Tessa's Father no one works as hard as he does, no one's problems are as big as his and so on...It drives me CRAZY!

Tessa falls into that hole sometimes where her life is horrible and nothing is good enough.....While for the most part I get that a lot of that is teenage drama, sometimes it really ticks me off, because I work really hard to provide for her. OK sometimes I fall short but she doesn't go without what she really needs and I'm doing the best I can.

One thing I try to do when she gets bad, is make her list at least 5 things she is thankful for.....It doesn't always work but it is a habbit I hope she takes with her.

I have had to stop and list what I am thankful for a few times yesterday because I found myself crying for no reason.....The only reason I could come up with is that I am profoundly tired......Tired of working, tired of fighting and so very tired of the pain.

A lot of it has to do with the fact I haven't had a good night's sleep in FOREVER!

If it's not the pain in my shoulder, it's my neighbours playing stupid video games with the volume at vibration levels... Yes I have complained loudly and often, nothing is getting done. Then if it's not that it's the cats howling in the middle of the night.

It will get better I know it will....It has too otherwise I will have to be fitted for a straight jacket.....Hmmmm. A nice quiet padded cell doesn't sound so bad....LOL!

~610~ Sitting here

Rather happy that despite my computer still actting up, I was able to figure out a way to make "RICK RADIO" work....WOOT WOOT!

Tessa won't be so pleased...LOL!

I LOVE "RICK RADIO" because even though I have a few of his CDs there are still quite a few I don't have and they are all but impossoble to get here in Canada, so not only do I get to hear all the songs I LOVE and have listened to over and over again I get to hear all the REALLY old stuff as well as ones I have never heard before.

I have said it before and I will say it again.......(HEY! Stop that, I can hear the eye rolling ya know!...LOL!) listening to his music really helps me get through rough times and right now I could use all the help I can get....

Yeah I'm feeling a little over whelmed right now with all the crap coming my way.....Nothing too big really I'm just tired of it all.....So very tired.

I may be adding to my own misery by looking up beach rentals in California KNOWING I'll never be able to afford it.....Nothing like wanting, needing craving what you can't have eh?

OK I'm going to go and BLAST out my speakers while I clean house.

Have a great day all!

~later~

GRRRR BLAAAARRRGGGGG!!!

Still stuck in the wanting what I can't have thing and at the moment it has NOTHING to do with going to California

GRRRR BLAAAARRRGGGGG!!!

S'cuse me while go kick myself in the ass....

~Later Still~

As if I didn't have enough to make me crawl under my covers and not come out for weeks Ijust realised there is LESS then 2 months until school is out for the Summer......I may cry.
