Why does everything go bad at the same time? Does the universe think that once we're down, it might as well kick us until we bleed and pee all over the grass leaving dead brown spots? Maybe it's right, take it all at once instead of taking a piece of our puny little soul day by day. One big bad year/month/day and then a glorious time of never-fear, all is right and good.
But shit.
We're carpeting the bedrooms and the spare office/formal dining room that we use for the pool table room. And the carpet is supposed to match what we got 5 years ago. And it's not. So we have to get Inspectors involved and all kinds of shit. So not only has my home been in uproar all week with having to move EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY bit of anything and everything out of said rooms, PLUS my closets, good lord martha!, but now it's a mess. A bigger mess. Dust everywhere. Computers having to be torn down and wires and phone lines and cable cords and dvd players and good lord martha someone come clean my house and put all this shit back, will ya? It was bad enough getting it all out and now I have to put it back too? And clean it all in the process? Some would say it's a good opportunity to get rid of a lot of junk that I've had no business keeping around for the last umpteen years anyway. They'd be right, but they'd also have a big fat bruise on their cheek where I punched them. Yes, I'm snippety. Yes I'm bitchy. Yes Yes YES!!!!
And to top it all off the babysitter (yes, the one besides me) had jury duty and so couldn't watch the grandbaby today and I'm having CARPET INSTALLED in the baby's sleeping room and doors open all day and shit flying, so son and D-i-L had to take off work, which makes me feel guilty because, after all, I'm a mom and it's my duty and destiny to take on guilt for things I have totally no control over.
And my baby is heartbroken, going through a breakup with his girlfriend of 5 years and I cannot do anything to fix it and make it better for him. Although I keep trying to think of ways to do so. He's too old for me to kiss and make it all better.
Other assorted ills are making this one hell of a bad day. I won't even mention the story that's giving me fits. *sniff*
