The bike has been found...in the bushes thrashed.
The frame and tires are good (as far as I can tell) but the brakes and I think the chain are trashed.
So, with a little minor repair she'll once again be mobile.
Still pissed about it though. Still feel like I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop...BUT WAIT!
How many frickin' shoes do I have anyway?

STOLEN!
I fucking can't catch a break people.
I do good deeds for people all weekend long and what does it get me? I'll tell ya.
Saturday I helped my friend and her beau move him out of his 4th floor apartment and her out of her 2nd floor apartment (can you picture the stairs?) then on Sunday we went to my Man's auntie's place to help her and her elderly husband cut down some trees that needed to be felled.
And what do I get for all this selflessness? something I'm told I have trouble with anyway?
We got home Sunday afternoon only to discover that some punk ass mo-fo kid with no parental discipline who should be in school but isn't because he gets into to many fights has stolen my little girls bicycle.
She hasn't even had it for a whole year y'all and I cannot afford to replace it. So, Merry fucking Christmas kid, Santa took back your wheels and gave it to a demon.
I want to cry, I hate this place.
I have seriously had the worst two and a half months of my entire life. Now all I can think is "Holy Hell! What's next?"
And! I'm about to shut this blog down for good 'cause if all I have to say is poor me, why me and what the fuck then it's not worth it. I refuse to do nothing but make people sad, I'd rather just keep that to myself.
I'm sure you'd all be happier for it.

You can't pick your family
I think my cousin is a Klan leader in Idaho.
Holy crap!
Friends welcome, relatives by appointment only.

HOLY SQUID!
So we went to the beach (river side actually) yesterday and when we got there we found this!
and up close...
Look how they don't even look real...how they're kinda google eyed like a cartoon character.
It was weird. Then, at the end of the day, the tide had come in and they were all gone.
It makes me wonder if some of them were still alive. If so then the ones who were getting tossed into the truck you see above for crab bait must have been inking themselves.

When I woke this morning...
And walked into the living room to sit down in my chair...this is what I found...
I don't think my animals should be more comfortable on my furniture than I am...it's just not right.

Co-Habitation...
People...The world is going to Hell in a handbasket, fast.
Visualize Co-Habitation.
Remember a world in which the phrase "what will we do with our elderly?" was never spoken?
Remember when children grew up in the same house with at least one or a whole set of grandparents?
No, I imagine that most of the people who read this blog don't remember that because we are all to young to remember any of that.
Well I say we should start thinking of it, a day might come very soon when one family of two parents and one or more child cannot survive as an individual unit.
A day may be coming soon when multiple families will have to consider living under one roof together out of need, who knows...people might even find they enjoy it.
I for one will start the parade. I will proudly wave the Co-habitation flag and bravely move in with my Mom and Dad (not that they're elderly) in a big ol' house with room for all.
The great thing is we will all save money this way, my kids get to be around their grandparents all the time (don't think my Mother doesn't love THAT idea, she grew up in a house with 9, plus the whole it takes a village blah blah.) there will always be someone home when my kids get home from school and best of ALL!!! I get to live closer to this gal right here and that makes anything worth it.
that's all for now folks!

The Universe has randomly selected you for punishment...
So, just when I thought my life was on a giant upswing, the other shoe dropped and the bottom fell out.
My man lost his job 'cause his company are giant ass hats with no integrity. My job is in trouble as the economy is so bad and getting worse no one seems to want to buy cars, huh go figure.
Seriously, just today their talking about making me part-time if things don't pick up like NOW, if that happens I can't pay rent as I'm the only source of income currently.
Other things that I'll not discuss here have only made the stress levels skyrocket out of control and leave me shaking my head and gasping for air.
It's a wonder I'm still keeping it together.
With all this I still go to work everyday with a smile on my face, knowing that any day they may cut my pay in half or let me go all together.
Everyday I send my kids off to school as if the loom of doom in not upon us so as not to make them worry. What else can a Mother do but survive?

As I Mature I've learned that....
...you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.
...no matter how much I care, some people are just assholes.
...it takes years to build trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.
...that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you better have a big willy or huge boobs.
...you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think.
...you can keep vomiting long after you think your finished.
..we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.
...regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades, and there better be a lot of money to take it's place.
...99% of the time when something isn't working in your house, one of your kids did it.
...the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away.
