burps...

Every time I try to think of something funny that happened nothing comes to mind.  I know crazy things have been happening in my life.  Have I forgotten how it is to laugh at myself?  Gee I hope not! 

So...  the other day my daughter was at the table and the dog was next to her.  She had her face down by his and was snuggling and loving on him when the dog burps.  That's right.  Bandit burped right in her face!  I didn't even know dogs did that!

I asked her what it smelled like and she said she was "breathing out" as he did it.  Yeah right.  Who was ever "breathing out" when someone does something like burp in someones face?  Not that I know a lot of people burping in other people's faces or anything.

Somebody ate the crabby pill

It wasn't me! 

Today was ridiculously busy at work... Just one thing after another.  It's one of those days I'm sure glad I'm not the bossman.  I won't talk about work though.  Who wants to talk about that anyway?  I'm sure we all get enough of that as it is.

Oh. my. word.  My husband just came in the door with cookies!  Time for me to go...  mmmm

self reflecting

I had to get an email address to someone I hadn't spoken to in literally years.  I knew we corresponded several years ago so I went into my "sent" folder to find the email address.  I've used the same email for 14 years.  I don't think a lot of people in this day and age can say that.  Can you believe I had emails from as far back as 2007?!

So I was reading some and they got me really depressed.  I was one sad little person for a long time.  

On that same note I am just amazed at the person I was, the person I still am, and the person I grew into.    

I think deep down I did (and do) change, but I AM still the same person. 

It kind of upset me that I'm the same person.  The same attitudes, same morals, the same deep seated feelings that drive me.  Sometimes I don't feel very adequate or like I've really grown up that much.  I can't change my innate personality, apparently.

So anyway those are my deep thoughts for tonight.

Day of Thanks

I'm not feeling very thankful.  I know.  I should work on that.  

Also, I think it's kind of stupid that we designate one day of the year to be thankful.   Perhaps we would be a much better off people if we were more thankful throughout the year.  Instead of harboring negative thoughts all the time and then forcing ourselves to think beyond what we don't have.  And then only because you'll look like the negative nancy (or ned) that you are and we wouldn't want that, would we?

Well I guess I must be one of the few honest people in America right now because I am a negative nancy sometimes.  I can live with that. 

Maybe my attitude will be better once I get some coffee in me.  Gosh, I am thankful for coffee (and creamer).  ....and my wonderful husband who is pouring some for me right now.   He must see me brooding over the blog.

still angry

Yup...  I was very angry and hurt yesterday.  So I'm told those are normal emotions.  My husband is on my team.  I don't know why anyone would want to be on the nerdy loser side, but apparently he doesn't mind.

Typically my disposition is to let things roll off my back, but once in a while something hits the right nerve and I can't shake it.  A nerve that perhaps has never healed over so many years...? 

I meant everything I said.  However, I am going to have to work on this anger thing before it tears my guts apart.  It's so hard not to be angry at someone that wronged you so unjustly.  It makes me angry knowing that I'm pretty much wasting my energy, too.  Catch 22.

I guess there is something else at the moment I can waste my energy on.  Like time with the best step son ever.  He could have chosen to stay upstairs and play video games, but instead he's getting several games ready to play.

He amazes me.  He doesn't even know the turmoil going on inside me, yet he is so thoughtful.  He "wants" to play a game I've asked for weeks to play (none of the other kids wants to play so I've been vetoed out).

Kirby just said he had an "old man brain"  That has absolutely nothing to do with my whole 'i'm still angry' blog, but it was kind of funny.  I guess I'll try to let this go, if for a moment, and enjoy some family game night time.
