Got a troubled mind? Vent here. (within rules, of course!)

Life sucks sometimes. Breakups especially. I never really told about mine, but I got over it.
I want to rant about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.

(Pick up the rock and throw it at the person who placed you in the situation to begin with, I know, I know, but it doesn't always work that way!!)

I have a brother that went to jail.Just got a letter from him and he acts like it is everyone elses faul:cops,da,judge,lawyer. He complains about his fine,having to pay monthly for probabtion when he gets out,and not being able to move.

Do the crime do the time is MY motto. He looks at this sentence like a freaking vacation.A time to read and reflect.Wants me to send books and magazine.Nope,sorry you are in jail to be punished buddy.Even if I had extra cash it would be spent on my kids not on someone who takes absolutely NO responsibility for his actions.

Worse my mom sends him money.I bet my mom will pay his fine and/or his monthly probation fee.She almost lost her freaking house over him(for bond/bail),and cried for months for me to help get her out of that mess. It stressed me out so much.Now she is starting all over again with him.She says she will stop bailing him,and then she goes and sends him money.

Some people live their entire lives getting bailed out by loved ones,and I think that is a crappy thing to do to someone that loves you.Then it is crappy when they( bailer/enabler) cries to others about the situation.

Thank you for the vent.

Regarding the tornadoes, I agree, up here on the NY/PA border we had a watch (I guess further up North it did touch down), blew part of a huge limb off our pine tree! Kept losing phones at work. Not good.

Well for my rant, I would have to ask, why do people I have JUST met feel the need to discuss politics with me?! I can't stand that!!!

I second the darn moochers. Yesterday I brought stuff into the office to make breakfast sandwiches for my co-workers. Tomorrow's my birthday, and I always make something for my department to celebrate it. One year I made Italian Wedding Soup, another year breakfast casseroles, you get my drift. It's just something I do that makes me feel good.

Anyway, about that rant... People from other departments were following their noses and came into my office to investigate. When they realized it wasn't free food for everybody, they started acting insulted that I didn't feed them too!

May I also mention that they're the same ones who are the first in line for potluck luncheons but never bring anything but a pack of napkins or a small bag of chips. Grrr....

Have a good weekend, and thanks for the chance to unload.

Laws are to punish for killing someone, manners are to keep us from wanting to...

My husband had to go out of state on a job that was supposed to only last 3 weeks. Things didn't go as expected, though, and next week he will have been gone two months! I miss him terribly but even worse our two boys (6 years and 11 months) miss him, too. I am so busy I don't get to enjoy my chickens...I only have time to rush through feeding, watering and cleaning up when the baby naps. I am thankful my husband has a good job, especially in this economy, but I had a hard time fighting back tears when the baby walked for the first time and I was the only one here to see it. I keep reminding myself that there are military wives and single mothers out there who have it far worse than I, but it doesn't help when I'm feeling really sorry for myself. I try to act cheerful when he calls and throughout the day so he and the kids don't know how sad and exhausted I am these days. It feels good to vent!

it was my grandmother's funeral yesterday. I miss and love her so much I can't stop crying.
the minister (not her minister, and I don't know why because she did have one) had obviously never met her, got details like date of death and some BIG parts of her life history wrong. the entire thing cost a lot of money and lasted 20 minutes. I'm alternating between heartbroken and angry at the crematorium and the minister.
