I am so mad right now. How dare that stupid b**** have a meeting about MY products without me! I am trying so hard to not fly off the handle at her. Trying to gather my facts and calmly respond to her. But I do just want to punch her in her stupid face and remind her *I* had to take over the tracking of inventory because SHE kept losing paperwork.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Are my neighbor's deaf? Their German Shepards have been outside all day barking. It is so annoying.

If Trudy was here she was here she would tell you to do it!

They are! They don't leave them out when not home. It's crazy.

My McDonalds has stopped using Styrofoam cups!!! Now they are plastic. I HATE plastic cups. They sweat. And the coke doesn't stay cold as long. My day is ruined...

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

That sucks! I hate sweaty cups.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

I hate styrofoam cups. Won't use them.

Why?

FNW · Guru

As a kid, I enjoyed putting my teeth marks in Styrofoam.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

It's gross to drink out of them. The taste and texture is awful.

I always use a straw. I don't drink out of a stryo cup without a straw.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Can't drink coffee with a straw. Styrofoam gives me the heebie-jeebies. Don't even get me started on styrofoam coolers. I if were emperor, I would outlaw styrofoam.

Forever Sunshine · Guru

And plastic too, please!

Ohfour · Hooker

I don't drink coffee out of Styrofoam. I only drink coke. Everything else has to be glass. Did you not SEE my 2 full glass cabinets? Lol!

Noooooooo!!!!! 😉

FNW · Guru

But, styrofoam can also be used as flotation device in the event of the great flood....

I'm livid right now! For the past two
months we've been working and planning
for the girls in the Royal Court to make
mini baskets, decorate them, fill them,
and take them to the local VA home.

I had to rely on one of the Moms to sub
for me when they were assembling them
(DH was in the hospital). They did an
adequate (but not great) job. Due to
school activities, they never got together
to fill the baskets with the candies that I
had provided. OK. Mom brought over a
box with the baskets mashed together,
for me to fill. I filled 75 baskets in less
than half an hour.

I knew that Mom and her daughter would
be out of town today, but the Princess,
Duchess, and Little Miss were not to be
seen or heard from. I sent two texts to
each girl, but none of them responded.
And to add insult to injury, their mailboxes
were either full or not set up.

And none of the parents responded to me
either. To my way of thinking, if you are
scheduled for an activity, and something
comes up, you contact the people in
charge (not texting another girl). I'm
incensed! Only our Queen, and her Mom,
showed up, to distribute the baskets to
the Veterans. Well guess what? Only
the Queen will have her picture in the
local paper as doing this activity.

Grrr. I think I'm most upset with the
parents, for not setting a good example
for the girls. I'm going to wait a couple
of hours to cool down before I try to
contact the parents. Grrr.

Lindley · Guru

I don't blame you momala, yes have only the queen who was the only one who showed up get her picture taken and receive full credit for it.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

That is maddening Moma. Here you are doing a good deed and helping them out with civic involvement and they leave you high and dry.

Oh my gosh! I hate election time!

Enough with the political phone calls. And leaving recorded messages on my service! furious

Grrr. We went out of town for TWO days, and the pet sitter let the cat out. She didn't mean to - she got up in the middle of the night to let the dog out and the cat must have slipped out. She's gone. She's an inside cat - she has no skills to survive outside. My kids are devastated. So is the pet sitter. But damn - you had one job! I don't know what to do. So far, the cat has not come home. It's been over 24 hours now.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

That sucks 'LL! Put signs up. Check the shelter. Ask neighbors.

Oh, I am so sad for you!

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Maybe put an open can of tuna out?

FNW · Guru

Put some food out!

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Oh dang! I hope she finds her way home.

How sad. cry

Momala · Great cook-happy wife-superb fisherman

As soon as you can, put her litter box
outside!

Yes, I'm serious! Her litter box.

Cats can smell their own box from over
a mile away.

I'm so sorry for your worry. Hopefully
she'll be home soon, as soon as she
smells her box.

WE have a lot of stray cats living in the woods around us.

Momala · Great cook-happy wife-superb fisherman

Put her water bowl out, but no cat
food or tuna. You don't want other
cats to think they've been invited to
dinner.

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Any sign of your kitty, LL?

Still hoping for the best!

My latest vent...IRS scammers calling.

They have got to be kidding! Would anyone fall for their crap, in this day and age?

(I sure hope not. I just laugh at them, and block their number.)

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Kitty came home! It took two days. After DH left for Michigan to visit his mom, I put the litter box outside (he was against that idea - thought it would attract all sorts of critters:). She came home within 2 hours of putting that outside.

Momala · Great cook-happy wife-superb fisherman

Yay! It worked!

So glad Kitty came home !

And if you want to, you can say
na na na na na na to DH!

Sometimes what you read on the
internet really works :)

Lindley · Guru

So glad your little fur baby is home!

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Nice!

TrudyML · Guru

Great news!

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Yeehaw!!

I'm glad she came back! smile

Forever Sunshine · Guru

Awesome news! So glad she's home and ok.

chef · Guru

Glad she's home!

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Thanks, all! I'm having to be real careful now to make sure she doesn't get out again!

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Hope she doesn't have a bunch in the oven. 😉😺😺😺😺😺

TrudyML · Guru

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

She's fixed.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

So the fence line between my yard and the neighbor's is weird. The previous owners didn't build the wooden fence to the end of our property lines. So I added the rest. Well, tonight, the current owners burned down the only section that's actually mine. They were in the process of fixing it when I walked into the back yard a few minutes ago. They don't speak English very well but when they saw us the wife came over apologizing. They have been cutting down a lot of trees and brush past few weeks and have been burning very irresponsibly. I told them they need to be careful because they guy across the road is the county fire investigator. They have been cited for violations in the past. They just don't get it.
