Venting time...

Now that I have made clear how grateful and positive a person I can be, I had to throw a few negatives in to balance out! Here are a few things that drive me completely INSANE!

1. When a "friend" invites me to a "party" which is really just a saying "hey, I need some more make-up, will you come and spend a ridiculous amount of money on something that you really don't need to help me accomplish my career goals!" ARG! You know what I'm talking about, we all get those cute little cards telling us how much fun it will be and that yummy treats will be served, and we end up being one of three that shows up, so we feel we NEED to buy something as not to offend the host, and when the item comes, it ends up collecting dust underneath the bathroom sink. For the love of Pete, stop this insanity!! The people that actually do well in these "careers" have no real friends because of all the sales pitches, and everyone else ends up losing money on stuff they can get at Wal-mart for half the price! The only people that are making real money are the owners of the company! I'm sorry if I am offending some out there that are firm believers in these well rehearsed schemes, but I have had enough! If I need something, I will go find it and buy it! I hate being told what I need!!

2. Feeling guilty for not going to the above referenced events!

3. Endless dishes.

4. Endless laundry

5. Cleaning the kids rooms only to come back 5 min. later to find chocolate milk spilled all over it!

I could go on, but I do like to stay positive. There, that feels better.

Monica Runia! I'm so offended! Guess I wont be inviting you to my tickeled pink party!! JK!! AMEN to #1! I feel the same way. If I went to every single party that I was invited to, I'd be broke because I feel obligated to buy something! Most of the stuff at those parties are ridiculously over priced anyways! I'll sit at home on my tuckus and make my own treats! haha

Also to the chocolate milk thing because that happens ALL the time. (you've seen ella's room)

You know, it really bugs me when you aren't given credit on someone's blog for setting up the blind date that led to marriage :) Just kidding. How the heck are you, Runias??? Your family is adorable! I'm so happy that I was blog hopping and somehow ended up here. It all started with Krisanne's blog.

I know you are a positive person but the greatest joys come from hearing these sessions so I know you are some what like us "normal" grumpy people. :) I agree with them all! Amen!
