humpday pt 2...

well, all that freakin work for nuthin. i'm sittin here now with a headache, from payin bills and messin with the budget etc... in order to prepare for the shopping hell for food, and school stuff. but... i finally get the kid out of bed, and guess what... she doesn't wanna go shopping!!! MY kid??? WTF!!! fine. first she says she doesn't want to go anywhere... but it's been planned... but also, she then, asks me to go get her chick-fil-a!??? NOT! also she wants a friend to come over today... maybe also NOT. ya know, it takes me hours, or even days sometimes to prepare myself to go shopping. sometimes to go anywhere at all. (except fishing :)) and now she decides at the last second..literally , that she wants to wait til friday to shop. well FINE. i'll just wait til friday to get food in the house too. that's just rude. dontcha think?
what i oughtta do is go out and buy myself a nice fat lunch, and leave her here with fruit loops!! but, i'm just not that cruel. dammit. i am however gonna cancel my day.
henceforth ... today is canceled in soul land. i am gonna eat something.. find something for the kid to eat... and i just might take a freakin nap. why am i so damn tired lately anyhow? all the time i'm tired. i hate bein tired forever!

Hey Soul Sis, whose running the show there? Tell kiddo things run on YOUR schedule or the bus don't run! I know how you have to psyche your self up for these outings, she should have jumped at the opportunity. Heck no I wouldn't have gotten her a Chick-Filet either! I'm sure you weren't too sad to avoid Wally World though, I find every excuse in the books to avoid it until I just have to. Wow, they sure have endeared a lot of people with their crappy management, haven't they? Hope you spent the rest of the day just chillin' then... or fishin?!

Oh, I know exactly what it's like! My kids do that to me all the time! And when they're ready to go out, they're like ready to go RIGHT NOW!

Then we have to worry about their meals and stuff....no wonder we're so drained all the time.

Blur Ting said...

Oh, and when their friends come over, it's worse. We have to play driver and send everyone home! Guess we're too nice!

When we grow old, we'll invite all our granny friends over and make our kids send them home! How's that for karma?

SOUL said...

yep jos, wasn't too bad canceling the day.. til it jumpstarted itself, and i had to go run all over town. but that's alright. everyone is happy tonight.. i think. the girls are laughin their butts off, hubby is on the computer doin his thing, and i am in my hidey hole.. happy as a clam. ok.. content. ok.. i'll go with happy. how can ya not be happy chattin on yahoo with yankee? that girl cracks my shit up daily!

and BLURT... you know exactly how it is i see. i'm glad it's not just me...and the karma thing...oh ya!!!! her day will come. i like your idea!

It seems that no matter what we do as parents, we can never out-guess our kids. If we are ready to shop, they aren't in the mood, if we are unable to get off the couch, they are ready to go...sounds like your day turned out as great as it could have, and really--there is no better sound than your kid in the other room having a good time....:)

SOUL said...

hiya jamie..
exactly! that's exactly how she is!!
if i feel like leaving the house she doesn't, when i'm exhausted or hurt all over, that's when she wants to go "somewhere".. every time!

i bet "they" plan it that way... get her while she's down..and if she's not down...take her down.
oh, that's sounds bad when ya put it like that. she's not bad. justa teenager.

and yes.. i have always always loved to hear her laugh !

hope you have a good day.. it's thursday.

do you like V8 juice? they have this new fruit fusion stuff that's really good to drink but there's veggie's in it (that you can't taste) ever since I started drinking that last week, I've felt I had more energy.

I HATE SHOPPING>>I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT...
perhaps this is just your daughters way of holding off with the approaching of school.
BLahk!
Always,
crusty~

I like portia's idea of the theme park..catch a fish, win a beer-!!
YEA!!

SOUL said...

love your way of thinking crusty...
good lord..imagine if we could put all of our minds together!!! we'd ba A genius!! :))

i'll try that v 8 stuff.. hell, i'll try anything

EE said...

My kids are fickle like that, too.
Maybe you should get you some Effexor...it's done wonders for me!!

SOUL said...

hiya E... i can tell. plus i have heard ya mention it. i have been on effexor a few times in the past, but would have to stop to change meds for various reasons. but one thing that would happen was i would get what they now call :brain shivers", but when i tried to explain it back then, dr's thought i was crazy. (er).. but it would cause like shocky feelings in my head. i hated that. and it took my own research, and talking to other people on effexor, etc to figure out it was the med making me feel like that. usually by skipping a dose or two. but i refuse to take it anymore. but i will admit, it's a good med if you can handle the side effects.
ugh good lord, shut me up
