Elite Membership | 04/09/2014 |
I'm so excited, Kev just let me get a 12 month membership on Bloop! Of course, it hasn't showed up just yet, but I have faith. I CAN be patient until Steve gets a chance to update it.
The contractor did a most excellent job on the garage roof. Hubby is extremely happy about that. It was something that we have needed to get done for quite a few years.
Recently Kev and I acquired one of our dreams. We bought a pre-made cabin that we can put on our camp lot. I have a picture somewhere, I'll have to find it and put it in an entry. But, we have waited a verrah long time for this.  Granted, it's not a very big cabin, just 12x20, but it's like a manshion to my husband and myself.
Pretty soon it's gonna be only us, and with both kids gone from home, we won't need that much space anyway. Right?
The reason that I brought this up at all, is, well, for one, I'm pretty fucking excited about it, and for two, my bestie (or who I thought was my bestie), is giving me complete shit about this. She is slanting towards a pretty beligerent attitude about my news, so I don't even want to talk to her about any of it. She says that she is tired of things always working out for other people, but never for her.
Excuse me, but I thought a friend was supposed to be excited for you, want to share in your joy, not be bitter and jealous. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.
I do know that my husband and I have had our share of hard times, and most likely, we will face those hard times sometime in the future. Nothing in life is ever gauranteed. I have gone without, I have sacrificed, I have stood by and watched people that I know have good luck and even a bounty sometimes, but I haven't ever been antagonistic about it. Sure, I have been jealous in my life, but that didn't stop me from being happy for my friends.
Today Katie and Brian, the bestie and her hubby, were supposed to put a deposit on a house $400. And then she would have had to come up with $3600. WHAT?! What kind of house can you get for that low a price? A 4 bedroom, no less. But, I was happy for her, even though she would be moving several hours away from me, so I would get to see her even less than I do now.
She is sore at me, I guess, because she couldn't come up with the payment, and I wasn't going to lend it to her. Money and friends do NOT mix. And it sure can cause a whole lot of friction between two peeps.
I'm sorry that she doesn't have the $$, but that's all it ever comes down to her. Money. She is on welfare, disability, and her husband got fired, so now he is trying to get disability. She also just got disability for her 8 year old son. Not to mention the $700 a month she gets in food stamps. I'm sad to say that she is always looking for a hand-out, not a hand up.
I mean, really, disability for an 8 year old?! Come on. I don't see the purpose in that. I really don't. How is her son ever going to realize his potential or even want to motivate himself, when she is essentially telling him and the world that he isn't fit to work? Just my feelings on the subject.
I had both of my sons suffer from ADHD, and treated for it. The both of them have done their stints in the mental hospital. But I would never put them on disability. I didn't want them to use that as a crutch, do you know what I mean?
Anyway, I'll stop torturing y'all, and try not to pop on here again.
