What a Week

Phone back in order...check. Electric on...check. Job...still looking. All bills paid....check. Still sane after everything this week... questionable.

I'll tell you since Wednesday of last week things can't get much crazier. I was a space cadet but thanks to the help of friends and family, the phone is back. I spent the weekend at my mom's. It was a much needed break from my normal life. Except my knitting group I needed that. Having Stitch n Bitch (SnB) withdrawls now. Hey it's been 2 weeks since I've been to SnB what can I say.

Over the weeked though I did get a bit done though. I got to visit with family, do some shopping (at mom's insistence, she paid), work the phone thing out, and get some time away from everything so I could think.

Then came Monday. I went for my weekly get toether with my employment specalist. When I got home I went down to get my mail, but was signaled that it wasn't a good time so I went back upstairs. Apparently the night before the half-sister of the 2 kids (I think of them as my niece and nephew) I used to baby-sit died. It's being ruled as a homicide. The baby's uncle confessed to killing her. No wonder it wasn't a good time to get my mail. So yeah now there's this going on.

You can also throw in my father giving me a hard time over the phone. Not because I didn't tell him. Rather because it happened. I'm supposed to be this perfect child of his. Ok, I'm an adult and I know i have to take responsibility for my actions. But don't I get to make a few mistakes in my life? Cripes, I know I've had a bad few months. My father needs to give me a break though. I know he has made his share of mistakes. Don't I get to?

I've got to have a chat with him. I'm tired of feeling like walking on eggshells with him to keep him happy. Grrrrrr. I love my parents. They make me nuts though.

Life.....Gahhhhh

My phone is out of order. I forgot to pay the bill. Wrote the checks and all, but forgot to send them in. Oops! I'm ok. Don't know if I'll make it to SnB this weekend as I might be handling family obligations. If I don't make it this weekend I'll try to get there Wednesday. I'm going to start having SNB withdrawls soon since I go weekly but family and Petition things ahve kept me away. :P I'll try to get to the library as much as possible to check in.On the bright side I'm getting more knitting done to relieve my stress.
