a disability keeps me at home almost 24/7...except to run errands and the VERY RARE...have fun.  i do not have any family in this state and seriously...i only have 3 friends i hang with.  so, the computer and online communities...is all i have.  the only thing, that has kept me relatively sane!!!  having someone to talk to on those bad days and get some nice feedback is crucial for me right now.  back in december i had a bad episode and i don't want to get that close to not making it...ever again!!!

 

so, here is to making friends who let you complain, pick you up when you need it and be an ear in return!!!

My oldest daughter turned 21 yesterday. I had all these plans for her 21st birthday, but since she has called me some very colorful names, told me to loose her number, says I only think of myself (and that is SO wrong- if you only knew what she has put me through and I have always stuck beside her even when I shouldn't have) and now she won't let me see or talk to my 2 1/2 yr old grandson that i have spent 90% of his life being with him. So I didn't call her, didn't send her a card, didn't acknowledge publicly to anyone that it was her birthday. Its just sad how self centered most young people are today...

Sorry to hear that. Did you try getting some of the overdraft fees waived? Sometimes banks will waive some of the fees if you explain what happened.

I would like to vent lol. I lost my check book today and also messed up my paypal payments by forgetting to link my new bank account to paypal as the default bank.

I had to pay over $150 in service fees for overdraft. Why did no one tell me that my mind would go after 50:(

Wow! So I gotta vent. I think there are crackheads living upstairs. I live in a triplex apartment and my neighbors have always been cooky, unpredictable, and sometimes downright mean and nasty. But now I'm almost one hundred percent sure that they're crackheads. So here's the story on how I've deduced. So they've been okay to us this summer, though last winter they were gremlins. I was beginning to trust that they were totally okay now. So there is a snow ban in effect on the streets-- you can not park in the street during the winter. So everyone scrambles for parking wherever they can. Well, my bf got home from school at 10 pm during a rainstorm so we parked across the street by the bakery because we couldn't roll the car onto the lawn as we were going to. Next day, woman from upstairs meets me first thing in the morning calling me every name in the book and saying there will be consequences. Apparently she thinks that because we parked there- no one is going to be allowed to park there and she wanted to park there? I dunno at this point this girl sounds crazy cuz I'm like yo- it's just a parking and everythings fine and we'll roll the car on the lawn tonight like i said we would. Later that night, my bf and I are trying to put the car on the lawn till we find a better parking. Well the crazies come out and start yelling in our faces telling us we can't do that either. Even though they just yelled at us for not doing that the day before. !!??!? So my bf and I are confused as heck but we're trying to mind our own business and go about the plan. Well, then the Baby Daddy starts getting up in my bf face and pushing him with a cigarette in his hand. My bf is huge and did not retaliate he would have demolished him. The Baby Daddy then says he's going to throw a cinder block through our car window, and that we better look out for our dog and says that my bf better watch his back when he walks the dog at night! WHOOOOOA! All this over what? We don't even understand. We just mind our own business- we hardly ever talk to these people and they are not our landlords. Well the next day we noticed mike hood ornament on his car was missing, and they had left a half eaten salami sandwich on our doorstep! Tooo Tooo much. We reported the assault and harrassment to the police department and talked to the landlord. Now everytime I go outside they scream at me with all different name-calling. The landlord is supposed to have a meeting with them and give them an ultimatum and if they don't change, they are out. But in the mean time I have to deal with this craziness. The thing is- over the summer when they were acting half nice the girl told me she tried crack before. After all this happened I told my boyfriend she said that and I saw a video about crackheads and this couple looks and acts like crackheads. They are skinny, they are pale, they shake when they talk, and if they don't get what they want right away when they realize they want it they get insanely violent. AAAAAAhhhhhh! Any advice on how to deal and live in peace while this blows over?

Hi Jenny. Congrats on the decision on grad school! Sometimes it just takes one little thing & you know you're making the right decision. Good Luck!!
Comment by Jenny Bee on November 5, 2009 at 12:33pm
Hey so I decided I'm going to go back to grad school as long as they accept me! I'm doing research for it now. Yesterday I spent the evening in my bf school library and I felt like a fish back in water. I'm researching water soil and air quality in nj and trying to see how it fits into my past research and how it fits into the research of the geo department at rutgers. Woowooo! It's fun, too.

Thank you Dede for the luck. Susan, that sounds horrendous- i'm sorry you witnessed that. Me- I'm totally ok with being at home and straightening things up and learning more about what i want to do in life right now. i am A-ok. I just need to get the living room cleaned tomorrow!

ok.....i understand the concept,,,,,,,,,,,,,but never, never, never (in public) sneeze in your arm or shoulder area when you are wearing a white shirt & just put lipstick on..........never!!!!
Comment by Ashlee Hardin on October 24, 2009 at 10:16pm
ok, sorry but i gotta vent again.....
i never made it to the haunted corn maze tonight. ugh. i had a bad feeling about going, and i should have listened to my gut instinct. but i didnt. sooo as a result, i rear-ended someone. THANKING GOD, that no one got hurt. and the person i rear-ended was a good friend of mine. No damage to her car, except a spot she might have to buff out. but my car, i have the plastic piece to my headlight thats broken, and my hoods kinda dented and dinged a bit. :/
and my dad was kinda cool about it, i think he was more greatly to know that everyone was ok and ya.
my boyfriend on the other hand...ugh, he p***** me off. here i am upset that this happened. ya ok i shouldnt be to upset because its just a lil fender bender, and whatever, but he had to go and make 10 times worse, by just not even comforting me, instead he keeps on telling me that everythings fine, and theres no reason to be upset. ok im sorry but im a girl, and when stuff like this happens to me, ya maybe i become a little emotional but still. soo he drove off, and gave me attitude.

sooo needless to say, THANK YOU GOD, for making it not as bad as it could have been, and THANK YOU for not letting anyone get hurt.

sorry just had to vent somewheres. <3
