Lexapro anyone?

Wow, I better get a refill! My kids told me I'm irritable.

We went to Target, and it made me "grouchy" (as my friend Mary says). Kids are old enough to bug me, but not young enough that it's cute.

Oldest is driving on a learners permit. She drove there, and let me just say, she doesn't allow enough time to brake. For some reason, she needs the music loud. I turn it down, she uses the button on the steering wheel and turns it back up. I think volume #7 is loud enough for a teenage girl. (Or "off" would be good.) Needless to say, by the time we arrived I'd had enough and couldn't remember what we were even there for.

12 year old is flapping her arms like a bird.

"Why?" you ask? I dunno, but when I told her to stop, she told me I was driving her nuts because I'm so irritable". lol, she's 5 foot 9 and flapping her arms like a toddler. "just for fun".

9 year old decided to run circles around the cart while 12 year old is flapping her arms. I put out my arm out to have her stop and almost knocked her off her feet, which made 12 yo burst out laughing uncontrollably.

I still don't know what I went for, but I bought a bike rack and some dog treats.

On the way home I wondered about my sanity. Lucky for me, school starts back this week.

Dirty Socks

OMG!!! Don't walk outside in your brand new white socks!

DON'T DO IT!!!

DON"T ball them up when you take them off, and expect ME to unroll them.

DON'T DO IT!!

When I complain about the color of said socks, DON'T suggest I use bleach on them.

Newsflash........I DID use bleach. I used Clorox bleach to be exact. more than once, and the damn socks are still freakishly dirty!!!

and don't complain when I hide MY white socks from you!

Manners Anyone????

I went to www.Dictionary.com and looked it up. I guess my interpretation of "manners" isn't the true definition. but this is one of the listings:


ways of behaving with reference to polite standards; social comportment.

My thoughts are more like "Treat people how YOU wish to be treated". Simple.

So, what's up with people? Why are so many people in such a rush they forget they're not the only people on earth?

Today I stopped at a gas station to get a "Polar Pop". (The bestest Diet Pepsi in town) As I was approaching the double doors, (I normally go to the right door, like in traffic) a man came out the right (my right) door, and opened it so hard the door hit me. Did he say "Oh excuse me."? Nope. Did he hold the door for me (as I would for him)? LOL what am I thinking?~!!???

What is happening to society as a whole? why are we so rude?

I had a pedicure today

Wow.

I went to the new place in town. It’s very pretty. It’s very pricey, and well, just “wow”.

I told her I just wanted a “basic” pedicure. “nothing fancy” I said.

So she sits me in 1 of 12 fancy pedicure/massage chairs. (I was mentally calculating how much it must have cost to outfit this place) Turns it on, and goes to work. After a few minutes of this chair, I turned it off. I couldn’t take it. It felt like it was going to leave bruises. It was massaging everything. Even the seat was massaging.

C’mon now. who really wants their happy place massaged while they’re in the nail salon? Anyone?

So, she’d notice it was off, and turn it back on. I’d turn it off. Repeat.

I should have told her “me no likey”.

Once she figured out I really didn’t like it, she said “how come you no want a deluxe pedicure?”. I said “I didn’t bring enough money.”.(I blame everything on money) “Oh, I understand.”

A bit of silent work time goes by, and she says “You want your eyebrow done?”. I said “No, I’m good.”

She says “We take credit card. and check.”

So, I asked her if business had been slow. She told me it has. It’s sad, they have to try and “Upsell” at the nail salon too.

I wanna know one thing though. How come these girls in the nail salons are always so cute and tiny?
