Just Pass Me By

We have had a pretty snowy winter this year, boy I love global warming. I do have to admit I was laughing this morning, we had about 2 inches of snow, and I was watching a 4 wheel drive truck having more troubles then my little Kia Reo Cinco was having on the roads. However I did get stuck in my parking space at work and that took some patience and rocking back and forth but I finally got out and decided I had better get some gas on my way home.
Today there weren’t many dumb drivers on the roads, and people where actually watching what they where doing which I am glad because it means they might have learned something. I was able to drive at least 35 miles an hour and no faster today everywhere including the highways. I lift work early because of the snow and over staffing issues. Which is to be expected in the winter time. I am almost tempted to look at Springfield homes for sale, I am so tired of snow and more snow. I have never liked winter not even as a kid. I think G-d just made me warm blooded and I like warmth better then the cold.

To night on our way home, we ran into a few crazy drivers, the most amazing one was the one who figured she could back up to lane change. She had no signal on and almost hit me, I wonder who fault that would have been, if she was backing up and I was unable to avoid hitting her. I was only going 35MPH so I was able to react and be wise. The others was someone trying to stop in front of me for no reason, one being followed by a police man, driving on the wrong side of the road on a 4 lane street. That one I moved over to the right side of the road and slowed down, because I wanted to be out of the way, for the police and boy I was hoping the guy wasn’t going to do something stupid.
It would be unpleasant to have been late home because of some crazy driver. To bad crazy drivers can be gotten rid of like getting rid of blackheads. On my way home hubby told me he appreciated my driving. We all know if I am driving we are safe because I have learned both offensive and defensive driving. The thing I have never been able to figure out when you try to allow people to merge in they don’t want to but know if you don’t want to let them and your going speed they try very hard to get into the same place your occupying.

I will say one thing the animals will never need any fitness equipment, because they are always finding mischief. Poor dog walks been cut very short this week because of the weather and she really don’t want to be out there, very long neither do i but we have to go outside no matter what for pottying. The dog is not fond of the snow, and lately she been falling into some places of deeper snow then she looks at me like, why me. Today she was peeing like a boy dog or at least trying to and giving me the sad puppy eyes.

You know there are no circuit city here near me, they close the closes one, and I think I might have been able to find what dad wants but oh well. Well Dad wanted to take a 2 weeks vacation with people who in the pass took advantage of him. He does not seem to understand those people who have took advantage of him and had his checking accounts both in a huge mess that they will do it again, and thinks we are being to hard. I made a promise to mom I would protect dad, and I have done my best at it. Well I told dad we could arrange for him to go some where with hubby and I, as a vacation but not for 2 weeks and when I have time off from work. I get time off every 3 to 4 months no matter what, so it’s pretty easy for me to do this for him, but not for hubby. I do not think he allowed to take more then a day or 2 off at a time, which personally I think he worked there for well over 2 years now, and is faithful employee never mess a day for sickness except for once and that was this year when I brought home the flue to dad and he but didn’t catch it. Oh well, the money not there for us to miss to much work.
Things have been going okay with dad lately but I do not think he always understand things, or how things really are and wants to be everyone friend even if they take advantage.

I remember when I started looking at getting a new car, and having to call my agent for a couple of auto insurance quote, even though I went with a different car then I got quoted I figured it wouldn’t be much different and was right.
My Kia Rio Cinco is big enough to carry a good amount of stuff in the back, but also small enough to park it in a smaller space. I don’t normally like green but I really like the color. Today I was very glad I had a small car, I was on the highway heading home, I wasn’t needed at work, and some idiot was in the middle line going about 30 miles an hour, so I decided I would speed up a little and move over, what I didn’t see is someone else had the same idea but was going closer to 90 miles an hour. I was able to get out of the way with out hitting the other person, and with out being hit myself, I hit the breaks and think goodness the car does what I command it and it wasn’t icy out side. After Mr or Ms I am driving way to fast past me up, I switch over and then the mr I am going to drive so slowly that I drive a sane person insane, was still going as slowly as they possibly could, it is fairly frustrating.

Between the dog and the cat I don’t know who going to win the She mine war. The last couple of days the dog has decided, it would be good to not go number two, there nothing wrong with her, because if I were to leave her out and about she find a place to poop in, in a corner and then I would have to clean it up. The thing that bugs me is she pees on the bad and now Otis thinking oh I can pee there to.
Otis has been going into the dog kennel and sleeping when the dogs not in there, so sometimes I stick them both together but only while we are in the same room. Maybe they can have their pee context in the kennel and other places. My hubby has had to wash the sheets twice in one week and you know that gets a little expensive when animals can’t mind their manners, maybe I should see if I can get instant life insurance quote for the cat, and dog because I might need it. Hopefully I can get a 2nd cat litter box so I can keep the cat out of the bedroom when we are not in it.

I am going to need to get some wrinkle remover, with all the stress dad has been putting me through. Last night hubby and I decided we would go out with a friend, and share with her some of our struggles as a married couple who took in dad. We had a great time and were able to share things, and well this meeting was a lot less tense and went smoother, probably because hubby and I are getting along pretty well.
I got home afterward and dad was just in a real fowl mood, he was made and accused me of lying to him about what hubby and I was doing, and that we was doing something to make him not involved with problems. Well nope we went out to have a good time, and not have dad baby sitting us. I just do not understand how he can be so angry because hubby and I take one night a week to us and we are not out late and sometimes we meet up with other friends.
To make things harder he is simply confused and getting dreams mixed up but goodness forget about telling him he was dreaming and it never happened because he will not listen to reason. It kind of frustrating to come home and be yelled at, and deal with his bad attitude and grumpy mood everyday. I try hard to make sure he gets what he needs and wants but some days it very hard to be around him.

Today I came home and had a email from my academic adviser, so I went to check the school site and see if I got my grade. I was worried about the final exam, but for no reason at all. The professor decided to grade it on a curve so it must be no one past the final. So I got a “A-” in the class, and I am not going to complain at all when I was expecting a B grade.
This morning I started the day off kindof rough, I got a spider bite on my nose and my goodness does it hurt, and it started to bliester so I got some stuff for it. I do not think any best acne treatment would help, so to wash my face I am not using my normal face was because I do not want to irritate it more. So I was honestly worried I wouldn’t have a good time. I did find a spider on the roof so I killed him, teach him for eating me.

Shadow is doing well today, no pain that I can tell and she back to being the active playful dog she normally is. She went for her walk today and did everything she needed to in record time, boy sometimes meds work like a old fashion colon cleanse reviews. Today I decided not to give her any pain meds unless she acted like she needed the pain meds. She didn’t seem like she needed it. She still tired and resting it seems more then normal but at least she playful too.
Right now she is sleeping in my chair, I am not sure how she can like tight spaces because I am not exactly small. But yet she wedges her self into where she wants to go.

Last night dad wanted to eat at Don Pablos, and we ordered our usual stuff. I order a few things there, and hubby only orders the chili it seems like, dad beef tacos. As always it was good. We had one of our waitress we like, and last night I requested for her. Normally I will not request for a specific person there but I just wanted someone who dealt with us before.
Well I was talking to hubby and dad and I was playing with the paper they had around the forks, and knives, and it flew and hit hubby. I laughed but honestly I didn’t know how I did it. So I got interested in figuring it out, and it flew across the restaurant, how embarrassing. We all just kind of laughed and I was like I didn’t mean for it to go that far I was aiming for you. I doubt it hit anyone or anyone really saw me at least if they did they spear me more embarrassment.
I can’t believe my hubby and I have been losing weight hubby has done better then me and he hasn’t even been using safe diet pills. I am trying to maintain or lose gradually so I am not to upset. I know I have oral surgery still to do this year which will make me on a liquid diet for a while. When I am on that again for 2 weeks at a time, I know I will lose about 10 to 20 pounds so the trick is keeping it all off for a time and eating healthy, while trying to get enough calories.
