Merry Freaking Christmas

This year was going so good, that is until yesterday 12/25/10. We go to my 80 year old grandmother's house for lunch and more presents. As I'm eating with my family, she tells me...."Amber, make sure you stop eating when you get full" I said, "Yes, I know that"

A little history......I struggle with my weight........A LOT! I'm a big girl. My brother is a big boy too. She always tells us how she NEVER says anything about our weight because we will do something about it when we are ready to. Until the last couple of years. I don't know if it is just old age or what, but every opportunity she gets, she talks about my weight.

Then she proceeds to tell me that she will give me $50 when I lose 100 pounds. She then says, I told your brother the same thing and he was doing pretty good, then he just quit! What the hell??? We are trying to have a nice Christmas lunch and have to listen to this bull sh#t????

At least I wasn't the only one she picked on. She asked my dad's wife about a former flame of hers right there in front of everyone!!! Can you believe that???? Utter Ridiculous! Ok...done with the rant :)

Forgive

Well, I forgave my husband. It is really hard to stay mad at him, the booger. When he picked me up from work today, he drove slowly away as I was trying to get in the car!!! Hilarious!!!

I took the boys pictures for their Christmas cards today. I think it is pretty darn cute!!!

I am worn out and going to bed, after I kill some green piggies!!!

Peace

Ugh...Men

Ugh...Men! First I want to start with what happened yesterday. Our local video store only wanted to give us $6 for True Blood Season 2 and $11 for Season 1. Jamie decided to go to GameStop and got $29 only for the two games. The movies were not sold.

Ok..a little history first. Us, a family of 4, only has 1 vehicle. Jamie is my chauffeur. I texted him at 4pm (I get off of work at 4:30) and asked him to pick up marshmallows. 4:30 came and I am standing outside in 16 degree temperature and no ride. I call him and he proceeds to yell at me because there were lines at Kroger. I told him I gave him 30 minutes to do this. He yelled, "YOU CAN DO IT NEXT TIME" I hung up the phone and I have not said one word to him since then. It is now 10:36pm. He has texted me saying he is sorry and to not be mad at him, and he has called and I declined the phone call. I know he is off of his mood pills, but he promised me he would try to be good. He hasn't tried at all. I am so sick of it. He forgets how it was before he started his pills, I was on the verge of leaving him, or kicking him out, one of those. I CAN NOT PUT UP WITH HIS ATTITUDE!

I was told today at work that I whined alot. After being told this, I kicked it up a notch and whined on purpose at EVERY opportunity :) That's how I roll!!

My BFF has been told that at the beginning of January she will be going back to Hawaii for work. Yes I said back to Hawaii for work. She said she absolutely hated it. We talked about her having to go back this weekend and she sent me a text today saying that we are not allowed to discuss things that could happen ever again. I wish we would have talked about me winning the lotto or having an affair with Robert Pattinson! Damn I love him!

Ok, enough of the venting. Off to bed I go.

Peace.

Christmas Time Blues

Why is it around this time of year, we NEVER have any extra money? I can blame myself for it this year. I quit my job because I was lucky enough to get a job working with the Department of Human Services, but since I did that, it has been 3 weeks since my last paycheck. Normally, it may not have been so bad, but a month or two before I quit my previous job, I purchased a laptop through the company and they would take out payments each paycheck. They had only taken 3 payments out when I quit, leaving me with a last paycheck of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

My hubby has been freaking out. Not only did I take away his health insurance *the new companies won't be effective until 1/1/11* but I have taken his ability to get his prescription mood stabilizers. He has a problem with anger and stress. I have totally screwed him.

I thought that since I am going to start writing in this blog daily, I'm not gonna sugar coat anything that happens in my life, what good would that do? I NEVER let anyone know how bad things are. Right now, my husband is taking the following items to the local movie store to sell them so that we have money to get bread, milk, and water:

1. Firefly Complete Series on BlueRay
2. Serenity BlueRay
3. The newer Star Trek on BlueRay
4. Dead Rising 2 for xBox 360
5. Force Unleashed 2 for xBox 360
6. True Blood season 1 on BlueRay
7. True Blood season 2 on BlueRay

The last two items are mine. I think I would rather have those on DVD anyway.

I know we are not the only ones that suffer during this time of year. But everywhere I look, everyone has money and no problems. Maybe they are just master manipulators of the truth like I am in public. I don't know.

Welcome to a part of my life that I never share with anyone.

Peace

Angry Birds

I have recently discovered Angry Birds on my iPhone thanks to several of my friends on FaceBook! I AM ADDICTED!

The black bird is my favorite. He is a bomb bird. You shoot him in and then he blows up...mega damage. The best for the cement obstacles.

The red bird doesn't really do anything, he just flies.

The white bird drops eggs like little bombs. Could come in handy too.

The yellow bird flies fast once you tap him. Really good for the wood obstacles.

The blue bird turns into 3 different birds once you tap him. Really good for ice obstacles.

I have a good cheat link for videos on YouTube...to help out the severely addicted player.
