Re: Monday Morning Vents

    We couldn't sell our old house so we rented it out. The first week the AC broke and we had to get a whole new one. Yesterday there was a big fire and it all but burned down, everything is destroyed. I really don't want to deal with this. I don't know what my tenants will be doing for the months it will take to fix it. I just can't deal right now.

    No vent- but wanted to say that DS and I watched Cinderella yesterday morning and when the scene that is in your siggy came up, I started laughing b/c I thought about it. DH looked at me like I had lost my mind. Then I had to explain why I was laughing and DH thought it was even stranger. ::sigh:: anyway. Thought I would share.

    DD has RSV and has to do every three hour breathign treatments and can't go to DC. I'm exhausted! And, I teach school and my boss has said we can't say anything to our kids about the incident on Friday or we will be written up. Don't know what my kids will or won't know, but that's going to be ridiculously difficult.

    Thanks all, venting made me feel a bit better though wish work would give me the day off to drink, cry and sleep. It will all work out and thankfully no one was hurt. The tenants went to the hospital and someone at the scene told us they were with them for hours and they were 100 fine before going so I worry they are trying to pull something. Everything will work out. Even foster puppy behaved last night probably because she knew I would have a nervous breakdown if she was her crazy naughty self.

    Dear DH,

    I love you...but it would be nice if you would remain nice to me even when your family is in town.  I don't know what it is, but every time your family comes around you act differently, like I'm someone you just tolerate, and then get mad at me for something ridiculous. SInce that's not the reality I'm used to...it's confusing.

    We had so many things to do this weekend for the holiday, and since family decided to stay an extra day, you deciding to go out and have fun with them while I stay home and try to finish up our holiday stuff with LO...not fair! All I asked of you last night was to just make or buy dinner and I would be happy as long as I didn't have to think about it...after you being unable to accomplish that and asking 15 times what I wanted for dinner with me giving you the same answer...that I don't care as long as I don't have to pick or do it...I ended up having to make dinner.  You're killing me smalls!

    Also, you keep bringing LO to bed and then going to sleep on the couch because you're not comfortable and can't sleep...um, LO snuggles up to me, to the point I'm hanging on to the edge of the bed not to fall off...then when you leave and he's been waking up having night terrors (?) Point is...I haven't had a good night's sleep in a while.

    I love the holidays, and since LO is here it's more fun, but a little more crazy trying to get everything done, especially since you leave for hours at a time on the weekends...and especially since you're holding my feet to the fire to still do everything I used to do without a kiddo to the same caliber at which it used to get done.  I know I talk a big game...but yeah, I'm only human and could really use your help.  Would it be so terrible to NOT go to the bar to watch one game of football this weekend?

    Love,

    Wife grateful to live far away from family

    Dear LO,

    You really need to sleep in your own bed.

    Love,

    Mommy

    My mom invited DD over on Saturday to make cookies with her cousins.  My mom NEVER offers to take DD.  She babysits my nieces and nephews every weekend, but never offers to take DD, and often refuses if we ask.  So I brought DD over around 12:30, per her instruction.  I went home, ate a quick lunch, and wrapped presents all afternoon with DH.  At 3:45, I went to grab a quick shower, intending to head over to pick up DD immediately after I got out (5 mins away). 

    Got a call while I was in the shower asking when i was coming, and I told her I was on the way.  Got there, niece and nephew were still there, no signs that they were leaving any time soon.  My mom greeted me with, "Well, I did my good deed for the season.  I gave you an afternoon off."

    WTF?  How about you just appreciate a little time with your extremely well-behaved granddaughter (you said so yourself - she was perfect!)?  I would have been happy to have kept her home.  In fact, we had a whole day of cookie-making planned.  But you insisted.  Don't offer if you're going to be a martyr.  I'd rather she spent time with us, since we actually want her around.

    I am so sorry this happened!  I hope you and your tenants get through this, and that no shenanigans are in the works.

    I'm so sorry IdigDirt!  I hope your tenants are ok and that everything is easy to sort out.

    My body needs to figure itself out stat!  I've had a mean cold, deep in my sinus, that went into my teeth and just flat out won't go away.  Add on engorgement from not nursing anymore and I'm in constant pain.  I physically need a break. 

    And I also need to lose freaking weight, I've seriously cut calories since I'm not nursing anymore and my weight still goes up, up, up.

    I'm a little late to the party but I'm so sorry to hear this.  I really hope that everything works out smoothly for you.

    Don't worry they are trying to pull something.  If they think you are negligent your homeowner's liability should cover it.

    Also, if they have renter's insurance it should cover the cost for them to live elsewhere.  Good Luck and check with your insurance company.  


    Turns out they don't have renters and our insurance royally screwed us. They somehow sold me a policy on a 200,000 house for 9,000 of coverage. I read it wrong and thought another item was my coverage when I signed it. Now I need to get a lawyer but chances are I will be responsible for 50,000 worth of damage which I don't have.

    Whoa, $50K?! The stress keeps piling on. I hope you hear good news soon. GL!
