I'm a little stressed about this small home business I have started. It is normal for it to take a while to take up and have regular clients. I have not done enough marketing because DH's job got sudden busy and I haven't spent much time working in advertising. I really need to up my game. But I'm torn waiting to "make" enough money to cover parttime daycare so I can get business related shot done but also can't really do that until I actually you knwo make a few hundred dollars. I hate failure

H went ahead and ordered ANOTHER ceiling fan without my input. Of course, I don't like it. I think he had a false burst of confidence because I liked a floor lamp he ordered. Of course the one I like is more expensive but dammit, you can't just go willy-nilly choosing furniture without my approval.
Ugh, somebody turned lanes into the side of our car today while we were on the freeway. Everybody's fine and the car's not TOO badly damaged, just dented and scraped. Soooooo as we were waiting for the state troopers to show up, this other car crosses three lanes of rush hour traffic, nearly causing multiple accidents and completely blocking an exit ramp, and parks near us on the shoulder. We thought he witnessed the accident or knew the other driver. Nope. He wanted the other driver's phone number. And he was creepy as fuuuuuck. WHO DOES THAT?!

I finally booked airfare and 3 hotels for the season. $2200 later ugh! I still haven't booked Florida and I'm dreading that. And the kid has to go there twice. I need a 2nd job just to pay for her sport.
I get what you are saying though, it honestly is a concern to me too. But I am also really glad it happened because it kind of slapped me out of this funk of romanticising N. He did some shitty things that I have only recognized as truly shitty due to someone treating me in the opposite way.
Lol totally blind leading the blind. But maybe that's what this guy is here for. To get you past N. Just try not to get too attached so you're not hurt if it doesn't go where you want it to go. Again, easy for me to say so absolutely no judgement from me no matter what you do. (((hugs)))
I'm not going to lie...I'm going to KOKO right now. I am super happy, and I don't think it is just because of Vegas, but rather what he has made me realize. I will not, however, begrudge any "I told you so"'s should we get there.
I really needed to see my pyschIatrist today because I think I need a change in my meds (feeling a little manic/racing thoughts/ can't focus.) When I got to my appointment the receptionist hands me a script, tells me the rest of the meds were called in. I ask why and she says "Didn't we call you? Dr is on vacation and the PA called out." This one time when everything isn't ok this shit happens. Now the Dr can't see me until the second week of September. I think I'm going to call the office manager Monday to see if they can fit me in earlier because I need some help.
I really hate being college poor. Like, I'm trying so hard to manage my money, but it all seems to fly away towards bills.
I know I'm just being whiney. Everyone goes through being college poor.
I feel your pain. I have to buy textbooks tomorrow. : /
I had a few shipped from amazon earlier this week... the rest are those weird handbound things written by the professors. I think my thought process when ordering was... "Well, at least it isn't 1k like it was last year?" :S

Hah, yeah, I'm "excited" that mine are only going to be 560 dollars this semester. I think I spent 2 grand last year. Textbooks are such a racket.
There's a thread on April 12 right now that's OMG. It's titled it's gone too far or something. You have to see it!
THX (puking angry face emoticon) cjoy can you have your insurance company include a note that if a marriage happens, you're For Sure invited!! (& a toast would be nice)?
I almost made this its own post but then I simmered down and remembered that no one cares about my kid as much as I do. GUYS. After his bath I was getting him ready for bed and he kept making funny sounds. I figured out he was saying "E-I-E-I-O" from Old MacDonald. I never sing kids songs, I sing like Justin Timberlake and Frozen stuff so he must have learned it from daycare. I start singing the song and he looks at me like "HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT SONG? IT'S MY FAVORITE!" and he chimes in with the EIEIO part. I would pause and laugh and he'd yell "COW!" so I had to do the cow, then the duck, cat, dog etc. Omgggg I love him.
Other new words from today (JUST TODAY) are pirate, wheel and football. Oh and diaper but he says "dye-poo".
Also I got him to stop lashing out at me. One of us takes him to the park for an hour every afternoon and cuts down on tantrums by 90%, and no more hitting and kicking.
