Complaining

I just needed a place to bitch for a minute. I had called a friend so I could bitch to her, she is always bitching to me, but as always she is busy ( like I 'm not).
First it started when we paid our township taxes in full. They charged us $40 becuase we didn't pay this year quarterly, we just gave it all at once. Yes, folks we were penilized for paying the town early!!
Next I am one week late with payment on my dishnetwork and they shut off everything but the shopping channels. WTF do I want those for? I can't win!!
I am sure that in the next week or two the lady I work with will be in the hospital and that means I get to go there to sit. Quick someone give me a book to read!!

Remoldeling the Kitchen

I started last month painting my kitchen, I am still at it. I am getting closer to the finish, but still have some painting left. One thing that I painted I accidently painted upside down, so I have to do it over. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I started this because I had left over paint and it was not going to cost me anything. Well, I ran out of that paint so, it cost me a gallon of paint. Still not a bad deal for a good size kitchen. It is the time that it is taking that is killing me. I may or may not have it done by April. I do work 3 long days a week , atleast that seems like a good excuse as to why it is taking so long.


HAPPY EASTER!!!

Entertain me

Often I think about what I'd like to post about and then I sit down to post and poof my head is empty.

I haven't talked to my good friend in weeks.I mean I have called her and we spoke briefly but, not our usal. We have both been so very busy. Things don't look like they will be letting up any time soon either. My husband has his first day of school in the morning!! I am just as excited as he is! He goes 4 days a week from 9-1.
I went to NY State this weekend to see my family. I had a nice time, just me, my girls and the dog. I always bring my dog even if there will be someone at my house to take care of him. Eddie really enjoys going to play with the other dogs and he has a lot of room to run at my grandma's house. Going up there always make me feel strange because they are so much further behind Pitt. in tech. I am always glad to return back here where businesses and such are up to date. However, I am ready to move. I want a new adventure. Another words, I'm bored!! Atleast I had people to entertain me in NY, only because I don't live there though. Entertain me someone!!

A Must Read

I Have read thousands of books and there are few that really move me. I mean not just do I crawl into the book or can't put it down. But, I in a way, become that character. My Enemy's Cradle is one of those rare books. It is by Sara Young and it feels so real that you feel like you are in Holland in the 1940's. A young blond girl who is half Jewish and half Dutch. You want to yell at her for being naive, but then you remember that it is 2008 and the only reason you know the truth is because the war has long since been over. You feel the hunger that everyone felt, when there wasn't enough food to go around. You feel your heart pound everytime hers does.
I feel a releif knowing that my grandparents lived in the United States during this time and although there were hardships here, they were nothing comapred to Europe. Sure we rationed here, still it was nothing like the fear and hunger felt by thousands of people across the ocean. You just have to read the book...
