Diet.....nuff said....

Well I started a little late this year! It's almost June and I just decided to go on yet ~another~ diet! This has to be my millionth diet! Lets just say I'm over 20 and this is a very repetitive step in my Summer plans. Guess its a good thing I'm not a dedicated person or it could ruin my whole summer!

My boys are real health nut's! We actually raised them with what to eat or not eat, to exercise and not eat late etc! In our hectic life all that went to the curb as the years went by, but I still insisted the boys did right. Kinda one of those " do as I say not as I do" things.

The boys joined the local gym recently and I told my husband I wanted to get the family rate. He said NO! Id rather walk in the woods......its what I call his ~cheapisms~!! Cheapism is my definition of something that's actually rational, but he's able to twist it around so that it looks like a frivolous expense. Hes good at that and now that hes retired he has more time to argue with me haha!

When the oldest son came in and said it was only $22.00 extra for ~The Family Plan~ HE then decided it was a good cause after all. You know.......as he explained "even if HE didn't go I could" ! Doesn't sound like he plans on going too much does it?! If I didn't know better Id think he was trying to make me stick to my diet this time? What do you think......sly little devil. I will let him THINK hes won because I will be benefiting. Maybe if I finally get all "hot and skinny"  he will want to keep up! Although I tend to believe he wont have that worry its a nice thought!

Diet here I come...............

I DONT REMEMBER TELLING YOU................

In short means ~I DIDN'T~ lol! Don't you just love when people are soooo interested in your life they forget to tend to their own?!  What is it with people wanting to know MY business?! I just don't really care what others do unless it directly affects me! So, my question is why cant they give me the same courtesy!

Seems if my life is boring OR hectic it fascinates people! Now I'm not trying to come off as if I even HAVE  a life or one anyone would even want at the moment! My husband will get calls and they just want to know our business not really how hes doing?! (that's usually family) It fascinates me the curiosity of my non existent life to certain family members!

So, what about me-us is so interesting?! I'm assuming because we lay under the radar or have tried to with little success. With the House burning and illnesses its been kinda hard to lay low..........but damn it we've tried! Why do we try?! Because I like to mind MY own business, I like peace and quiet, I appreciate solitude and privacy!

Now don' get me wrong we socialize and do our thing, but its with-in our own group and that's where my comfort zone is! That's where I like to stay..........I want peace and quiet. If I'm having a bad day or life moment, I appreciate some respect! When you work for the public you have THAT personality then you have your private personality. The boys ust to tell me I could be chewing them out and the phone would ring and it'd be ~ Thank you for calling so and so can I help you~ lol You learn to do that, so when your on your own time that's exactly what you want......peace ,quiet and drama free!

It never really bothered me as much until my husband got sick. Now, I think REALLY as crappy as my life is at the moment you STILL find it so enthralling?! Maybe the few, because most have been awsum, will eventually get a life and stop trying to mind mine! Stop making people more or less sick than they are and especially minding their intimate business! Again, I must stress sooo many people have been good to us and as I write this it seems petty, but I just hope those FEW will read this and be ashamed and go on to their next VICTIM! Better yet learn from this and quit it all together! Now that's a good option we all have redeeming qualities.

Ughh I know, but this is The Gripe Site, so I am Griping. All in all my life is good and I feel Blessed, but you know what they say about a few bad apples (=  just so happened those apples are either kin to us or interested in other peoples business! So, if your reading this either give me a call OR get a life! Preferably your own......if its boring make up something on yourself, it wont take but a couple of hours to make it into a hell of a story!

O.k. so Ill be nice now...............how about we just say a prayer for each other and call it a day!

 AMEN!

SLEEP AIDES

Ive taken it ALL ......over the counter, health products and prescription sleep aides! Now the only thing that works ''For me'' is Ambien and sometimes Lunesta. Well for those of you that havent tried these two let me fill you in.

Lunesta, is o.k. if you like your mouth to taste like metal, rust, iron etc. The only plus is you dont eat after you take it ,because you want to puke.

Ambien is awsum! It has its own set of problems, BUT the side effects Ive had is- driving ( yes driving) night eating, (which makes Lunesta more attractive lol), calling people in the middle of the night OR talking to people and dont remember........thats how I received my ''exercise pole'' ok stripper pole (says the boys haha)... in the mail one day via info exercise commercial! I have even seen ''Orbs'' shooting down to get me from the ceiling lol. SO, if your desperate for sleep...it CAN be awsum lol....up to you! Its up to you if you want to sleep and I do ......sometimes would be nice ya know?!

My Dr said he had a patient on Ambien, her husband was awakened in the middle of the night and heard alot of commotion out side,he went to check it out and she beating the hell out of the garden gnomes with his golf clubs!! Now I don't care who you are that's funny lol

So what does a person do, find a night job, deal with feeling like you've been sucking on a rusty pole OR make orders you don't remember ordering? Oh and on the night driving one, if or when I break down and take an Ambien and not Lunesta, I now give the keys to the Hubbie when he goes to bed. Problem solved!

Now that's a sore subject, those people who lay their head down on a pillow and are snoring in 1.2 seconds.....makes me wanna beat them with a wet noodle! When I tell you've I always had this problem I MEAN I have ALWAYS had this problem!

I'm going to start up an online petition for my husband! It will be for people who sign in the belief that if I move back to the Ocean Id sleep like a log and be much more happier and healthier......you in?! Come on give a Sister a hand (= much better than taking a drug.....Ill take a glass of red wine and hearing the roaring waves ANY DAY!!! Surely if your in we can form a club (=

HAVE YOU EVER??!!

Have you ever met a mother that has absolutely no maternal or nurturing bone in their body! Well I have and if you haven't consider your self Blessed!

People amaze me! I guess `THOSE` people are just cold hearted.....evil.....I'm still unsure!

So, as I write this I'm saying a prayer for this person! Now I ask all of  you viewing this please say a prayer for all the Mothers out there that need to realize giving birth does not make you a mother! To stand up and try to mend the hurt you may have caused!

Sorry, just breaks my heart when I see this and I have friends who would give ANYTHING to have their children back if even for 1day!!

As a mother, I can not comprehend this type of attitude of ~mom 1st kids last~..........................................

That's it.........may God have mercy on their souls!

YOU KNOW WHAT BUGS ME....................

It bugs me when you put a ~serious~ post on blog frog and you get NO replies ,BUT a question like ~did you pee during delivery~ gets a 100+ replies??!!  SERIOUSLY!! Who cares...believe me you wont care what you do during delivery!!!

You figure a forum of this statue that reaches so many people, someone would be interested in a serious question? Maybe It wasn't funny or as informative as the question above, but still a question! Maybe I don't rant enough, cuss enough, preach enough who knows? At this point I'm questioning the whole point in blogging!

FYI, the question had to do with Cancer, the type and any info regarding it. So, it wasn't a stupid question....or I didn't think it was! Did I mention I lost a follower after I posted the question............maybe it was the question or maybe they just didn't like my post in general.... Either way, GOOD RIDDANCE~.......OK , so I'm thru GRIPING.......for now! Have a good one!

THOSE PEOPLE...AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you ever see ~those~ people and in your mind your doing a Chuck Norris move on them or you see yourself as Rambo.....then you flash back to reality?! How odd is it that ~those~ people are usually either related to you or in your circle some how!! Is that irony or Karma! If its Karma, I wanna know what the hell I did in a past life, because I would like to make a menze!!!

No, I don't know about the whole past life thing, but it has to be something!! Maybe your in THEIR path to show THEM something............I would like to think a Chuck Norris move haha, but probably not. I wish their was an Island for ~those~ people............wouldn't that be nice!!  We could call it THAT Island for THOSE people (=

You know, the kinda place you take your kids to and show them THOSE people and how they NEVER want to be THEM! Yes, Ive had one of THOSE days with THEM people and in my mind I kicked their ass (=  I was Awsum.................good thing for them I ~snapped~ back to reality...............................AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHYAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH, Im sorry I just had a ~flashback (=~

I MUST SAY THIS...............ON GRIPE WEDNESDAY...WITH LOVE

We have truly been blessed with some awsum friends and family! We are on prayer list near and far a nd what an honor and blessing for someone to care about you enough to do that! The Methodist Church delivered a prayer blanket to my husband that was made with pure love, devotion and many,many prayers! We don't even attend their Church now how special was that to know all religions can come together and pray for each other!

So, I assume you are wanting to know the gripe right well......its the nosey ones, the ones who don't know you and NEVER made an effort to know you! The relatives who just want to ~talk~ about it, but not help!

This is my view, if I publicly put on Face Book etc. for a generic prayer of healing or for my family that should be enough!

My children,my husband and I are so grateful to all the people who have been there for us! Now my hope is that the ones who love and care for us and even the ones who don't know us , but want to lift us up in Prayer PLEASE cont to do so! We need all the prayer we can get! BUT, the ones who just want to be curious...don't its too hurtful for my children to keep telling the story over and over again! We need all the love and support from all the TRUE WELL WISHERS we can get......My husband needs all the prayers and support he can get!!

So, the next time you approach someone you don't know just to get the ~scoop~ please think about their family and what they are going thru...................then REALLY go home and Pray for a Healing Miracle OR for what ever they may need God to help them get thru!

THANK YOU TO ALL MY LOYAL AND DEVOTED FRIENDS IN PERSON,ON FACE BOOK, MY BLOGS AND MY NEIGHBORS-COWORKERS-AND MOST FAMILY! WE LOVE YOU AND COULDN'T HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR WITH OUT YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT! ID LOVE TO NAME YOU ALL, BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD, THEIR ARE TOO MANY! 

I MUST HOWEVER MENTION MY HUSBANDS CO-WORKERS, WITHOUT THEIR LOVE AND SUPPORT I COULD HAVE NEVER MADE IT AND I KNOW THEY WILL BE THERE IN THE FUTURE FOR ANYTHING WE NEED....WHAT AN AWSUM GROUP OF FRIENDS......FAMILY!!!

MUCH LUV MY FRIENDS!! AND CONT TO PRAY (=
