Oh So Frustrated First of all before I start my entry I have to give Sx3 (the person who made this layout) a round of applause because this is by far my most favorite layout EVER! My whole life I have had a thing about the connected swirl pattern you see in the background of this layout, and I think the color scheme is gorgeous so KUDOS Sx3..I highly recommend Sx3's work to everyone check it out!
Anyway now that I'm done being a total dork I can get on with what this entry is really all about. I'm sorry it's been so long since you've seen an actual entry from me but things have been completely crazy ever since Isabel's heart procedure. First of all I had my surgery to have my tubes tied Wednesday but let me start on Monday. So Monday I had to go into the obgyn office to sign all the necessary paper work after which I had to go to the hospital short stay center and have some blood work done. Before I could go to the hospital though I had to run back home and pick up my step sister from school. On my way I called a friend of mine that works with my step father and asked to borrow a couple of dollars..he told me that was fine and that he would give the money to David (my step father) for me to pick up. But when I got to the job site David had been called off to a different job site and since no one called me to tell me that there had been a change in the plan I instead went looking for my friend. I finally found him upstairs in the supply room with his boss in tow!!! His boss politely welcomed me up the stairs and then made the appearance of going downstairs and heading towards the shop. Once his boss was gone, or so I thought, I asked my friend about the money at which point he told me that he couldn't give it to me right then because his boss is good friends with his wife and he was afraid it would start rumors about the two of us. I of course understood completely and headed off to go get my step sister, got her, took her home and headed back to the hospital to have the blood work done. No sooner had I pulled into the hospital parking lot however when I receive a phone call from my mom...turns out that my friends boss had snuck back up the stairs and heard the conversation between my friend and I, and of course accused him of EXACTLY what we were trying to avoid he even went so far as to threaten my friends job over it. So my friend called David cussing him out and telling him that I better not ever call him again, David then turned around and called my mom to cuss her out about what I did and my mom then in turn called me to warn me about what was going on. I was absolutely HORRIFIED when I found out and immediately started trying to get a hold of my friend to straighten things out. But of course he was refusing to answer both my phone calls and my texts. Thing is if he'd just called me when he found out that David was being called to a different site and told me not to come, there never would have been a problem. He KNEW I was on my way and he knew that if I saw David wasn't there that I would come looking for him..so how in the hell could it possibly have been my fault?
So I have all that shit on my shoulders already when the nurse calls me back to take my blood. Well I TOLD the idiotic woman that I had tricky veins and that if she couldn't FEEL the vein not to try it because my veins were deeper than they looked...but of course she had to be miss. billy bad ass who "knew what she was doing." She sticks me and low and behold does NOT hit the vein..well instead of being able to admit that she'd made a mistake she decides that the needle must have missed the vein by only a few millimeters or something so she starts moving the needle under the skin which of course made me feel like I was about to pass the fuck out. Finally she looks up, realizes that I'm getting whiter and whiter so she takes the needle out and says "maybe I should go for one I can feel better what do you think?" I shit you not she actually said that, I just nodded and gave a look that screamed eat shit. So once again she stuck me, this time on the side of my elbow, she hit the vein but it was a slow bleeder and she had to work the needle AGAIN to fill the four vials required! Needless to say I was sick as a dog by the time I left that hospital.
I spent the rest of that evening trying my best to get in touch with my friend to make up with him. Finally after hours of unanswered text messages he texted me back told me he forgave me and that he would call me later to set up a way for me to borrow the promised money. I felt better, thinking that it was all over, I waited until around time for my friend to get off work and texted him asking if he would like to meet me in town to conserve gas. He told me that sounded fine and that he would call or text me on his way home. Well I waited and waited during which time a couple of friends of mine showed up to take me to my car which was broken down at the local grocery store to try and fix it so while I was there I texted my friend again asking him if he'd just like to meet me at the grocery store since I was going to be there for a while and it was on his way home. Turns out that he had been off work for hours and was at his sons baseball game, again he told me that he would give it to my step dad to give to me. Well once again things were not explained to me, I had no way of knowing if that meant my step dad was with him or he was seeing my step dad after the game or what. So I asked him if that meant he wanted me to wait at the grocery store for him at which point he nastily texts back with "I said I'm at my son's game TOMORROW!!!" Well once again I just politely said "okay" wished his son good luck with his game and left it at that. So the NEXT day rolls around, and once again I waited and waited to hear from my friend. This time I waited until I KNEW he was off work before I texted him, he politely texted back for me to have my step dad call him to make the arrangements so that his wife wouldn't get angry over another woman texting him. I completely understood so I texted my step dad and asked him to call the friend for me, my step dad REFUSED!! Turns out he thought I was asking him to go meet my friend for me when all I wanted him to do was call him and find out where my friend wanted ME to meet him. So once again my chances of getting the money I needed were blown. SO the day of my surgery rolled around, we went in, they put me under, did the procedure, watched me for an hour or so and sent me home. But I was, and still am in a pretty good amount of pain and needed that money more than ever to buy extra bandages and so forth. This time however I had my mom call my step dad to see if she could get some actual action out of the two men that way, after three hours of pussy footing and telling us to hold on etc my friend finally decides that after giving me the run around for three days he is no longer willing to let me borrow the money leaving me completely screwed!
Anywho, from Wednesday (the day of my surgery) till yesterday my grandmother took care of the kids for me because I'm not supposed to be lifting anything. Yesterday however she had to have a break, my kids are handfuls, yesterday also happened to be the day that my roommate threw her son's 14th birthday party. So when Zach got off from school he brought with him 10 of his closest friends. The first couple of hours were actually fun and beyond having to separate one couple who wouldn't stop finding dark corners to smooch in everything went fine. But my father was in attendance and when my father is around its only a matter of time before something hits the fan...and hit the fan it did! My roommate is also my fathers ex-fiancee hence the fact that he was here for Zach's party (Zach my step bro and Carrie my step sis have been forced to look at my dad as a father figure since they were very young) but you let my dad and his ex stay in a room together too long and an argument is bound to happen. Well my father is a control freak from hell, not only that but he loves to boss people around loudly and violently. So after both my roommate and I had gotten on to the kids several times for making out my dad decided to put his two cents in, only his two cents was to try and shut the party down completely which he of course had no right to do considering not only was it not his party but he was simply a guest and an uninvited guest at that! (Literally the only reason he was there at all was he helped bring Zach's birthday present..a drum set..to the house early that afternoon and refused to leave, he'd also been drinking since before he arrived) When daddy started trying to shut the party down my roommate politely asked him to allow her to enforce her own rules in her home, he in turn told her to "shut the fuck up and keep her dumb ass out of it!" Well I'd had enough at that point and got into the quarrel myself. Little did we know that while we were out on the porch trying to get rid of my drunk ass father some of the boys in the house were raiding the refrigerator of all the alcohol and since they didn't want to get caught they were chugging it! I have to say though I am SO proud of my step brother, he didn't drink any of it and even though he didn't come get an adult, he was being made fun of because he'd been asking his friends not to drink! Anyway long story short by the time we got daddy off the property (one violent threat towards me later) and got back into the house we had three pretty drunk teenagers on our hands!!! I was PISSED!!!!! Needless to say our first step was to call parents and tell them exactly what was going on, I was very shocked to find that not a single parent was angry..in fact all three families said that they allowed their children to drink at home! So for the entire night not only did I have my own two children to take care of but I was back and forth between my room and Zach's cleaning up vomit and assuring the boys that, no they may FEEL like they were dying but in reality they were perfectly safe and would suffer nothing more than a severe hangover in the morning! LOL To be honest it was kind of funny and one boy in particular learned his lesson about drinking more than his limit! Maybe they will think twice before stealing alcohol, or accepting alcohol period... unfortunately in this society however I really doubt it!
This morning John had to go to work and the rest of the family had to go to a church gathering so I was left with both my kids by myself even though I'm still not supposed to be lifting. My stitches are very sore and have been all day, which was made worse by the fact that both my kids screamed all day long. When John got home his arms were covered in whelps he is obviously having an allergic reaction to something he worked with today but he refused to go to the hospital so he's sick as a dog and ornery as all get out. Then my roommate and her kids got home all screaming at each other and ornery as all get out! My kids were still screaming and being ornery as all get out, THEN to top things off my job decides to call me in with an hour and a half to spare before they needed me there and I hadn't even had a shower yet. So I frantically called my grandparents on my moms side out of bed to take care of Talon since John was sick (Isabel sleeps through the night so I knew John could handle her with help from Zach and Carrie) then called my grandmother on my dads side out of bed to take me to work because my roommate was already on her way to her job so there was no vehicle for me to use. I then rushed to get my clothes together, take a shower, blow dry and straighten my hair, put on my make up, put on my uniform. Then I had to wake up poor Talon from a deep sleep, dress him, get his diaper bag together, strap him in his car seat, put him in the car, drive him to my grandmothers house, unstrap him and rush back to the car headed towards my job. BUT after ALL of that I get half way up the road and my cell rings, its my boss again with "I'm sorry but our regularly scheduled person called back and said that shes going to be able to make it in after all so we don't need you!" I WAS SO PISSED! I had to turn BACK around, wake my son BACK up strap him in the car seat, in the car...drive him home, take him back out of the car seat, get him back to sleep, undress, wash off my makeup and now I'm so hyped up from having to do so much so late at night that I cannot sleep! UGH so now you're up to date and I'm going to go watch tv! I'm outtie caio and Blessed Be!
