I’m sure it isn’t. In fact I’m sure there will be a million billion jazillion more thrown my way. But can’t life be done throwing them my way for a little while? Please (see I even said it nicely, doesn’t that earn me some brownie points with the man up stairs?)

Yes I know I’m a dork. Like I’ve said before - I’ll be the first to admit it.

But on a serious note, right now I don’t need anything else thrown my way. I have personal things going on within my family that I’m trying to deal with in a mature adult like way when all I want to do is sit down, throw a tempter tantrum, cry and yell at the world that it’s not fair that my grandparents are getting older and their health is failing. I know we all deal with ‘older’ family members and I know it’s a part of the aging process but I don’t know how to handle my grandma that can’t remember anything and repeats herself over and over upteen times, it’s so sad and it breaks my heart. I don’t know how to handle looking at my grandpa and seeing how bad his hands shake when I’ve always known him to have steady enough hands to change my oil or fix my brakes or other car issues or hold a coffee cup steadily and with ease. I don’t know how to handle my other grandma that just got news that she’s a walking time bomb and could have a stroke any minute because of clogged arteries (over 85% clogged) in her neck that the first surgery didn’t fix and she isn’t strong enough to handle a second surgery. All that has me in a big emotional mess. I’ve always been so close to my grandparents and the thought of losing them just totally freaks me out!

Then comes my life issues that have nothing to do with family. The stupid rent situation has my undies in a bunch every month because it’s really hard getting used to paying the amount I pay now when it was so much less before that. That dumb lemon hit me hard and I certainly wasn’t expecting it and it’s made things super tight financially! So imagine my surprise when another lemon gets thrown at me. And actually why am I surprised I mean when it rains it pours right????

For something that should be a simple process - finding and purchasing a sports bra - it sure is turning into a nightmare!

Come on now…I’m not the only woman in the world that plays sports and needs something to support my girls! And I also happen to know that I’m not the only ‘large’ chested woman in the world playing sports in desperate need of something to support those ‘girls’ of mine.

So tell me…why is it so cotton picking stinking hard to find a sports bra?

Ugh! I’ve been in a funk the last couple days. Yesterday was really bad…I was a big ole cry baby off and on ALL day and night. It was rather annoying if I must say so but it’s like the harder I tried to be in a good mood and not all sappy, the more I cried. And stupid things made me cry, things that normally wouldn’t even phase me made me cry. I thought when I went to bed that things would be better today. And they are but they aren’t, if that makes any sense.

I’m still in a ‘funk’ and although I haven’t been crying like yesterday, I did shed a few tears this morning while watching CMT (country music television) when the song Come Home Soon by Shedaisy came on. I’ll excuse myself for the crying jag there and let it slide considering the nature of the song and it being geared towards military which of course made me think of Seth and how much I worry about him. If you don’t know the song and want to read the lyrics, you can see them here. If you want to hear the song and watch the video you can go here. It’s kind of funny that the song sent me into tears this morning but I’ve been listening to it in my iTunes this afternoon and it’s not bothering me at all.

Anyways…whatever is going on I need to snap out of it! Usually I’m so cheery and upbeat (I said usually!), this is so out of nature for me and it’s really bugging me.

Have you ever been in a funk and you just couldn’t put your finger on it as to what was making you so emotional? Have any tips on how to snap out of it? Leave me your comments

Ok I’m a bit freaked out at the moment! I met with the lady that handles my rental assistance last week, maybe the week before, and I knew that my portion of what I pay for rent was going to go up but I didn’t realize it was going to go up this much! I’m now going from paying $300.00 a month to $500.00! That’s a $200.00 difference that I have to start coming up with….YIKES!!!!!

Not a good time for all this to be happening. I have to have new brakes on my car because they are grinding really bad, a tire keeps losing air. Plus the first rental payment of $500.00 is due on the 1st of April…not much time!

Ok I’m a little more than freaked out…how the he** am I going to manage to come up with money for my rent, groceries and new brakes???? Not to mention the fact that what I have to pay for rent now is just about 1/2 of what I bring in every month with my VA business I’m feeling pretty screwed at the moment! Ugh this totally sucks!!!!

Wowsers did I ever forgot about how much of a workout dancing could be! I danced and danced and danced and then danced some more last night at the Ozone club inside the new casino in Petoskey last night. Ok so maybe I should say tried to dance. LOL This white girl can’t dance but ya know what? Who cares cause I love it and that’s all that matters.

I ran into a couple old friends so that was cool too. I made some new friends too so that was great also. I took some pics but it was super dark in there so they aren’t the greatest.
