special apologies and problems

First, wanted to send a special apology to a very good friend. I mentioned that a good friend of mine sent me an email that was an actual blog that she reads about people that complain and this national movement to help people to stop complaining. Maybe because of the way I wrote it (I tend to be a little rough around the edges) it may have come across as though I were offended by the email. So just wanted to say...I took absolutely no offense to the email, and I am so sorry that it came across that way. To any of you readers I just want you to know, I support the movement in theory, I just wont be taking part of it, not because I dont think that it is a great idea, I truly believe that you can be a happier person if you took out the complaints in your day to day life, I just dont have the energy to make an effort to not complain. I bitch and moan, its who I am. Would I be better off if I didn't? ABSOLUTELY. I just dont want to stop. So again, apologies to my friend for not wording things better.

So, today's paper has a gigantic section for ads most likely due to the upcoming holiday. It was hard to roll, I didn't leave the warehouse until 3:35...GRRRR! I noticed while I was rolling that my left shoulder was a little sore, then when I went to throw my first paper my shoulder snapped and it was horrible...then I went to throw the second paper and as soon as I lifted my arm the was excrutiating pain all in my shoulder. My thought process went...OUCH, crap, what do I do, Shit, I have 237 more papers to throw. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this.....which was quickly followed by tears and I cant do this, I cant do this, I cant do this. I did make it through my route, but it killed me and I had to go a little slower than ususal. I got home at 5:45 (random useless information - the sun is not up at 5:47 in the morning, but you would be surprised at the amount of vehicles on the road at 5:47 in the morning.) Logan didn't wake up when I walked through the door, which was awesome. Logan did wake up at 9:15 this morning...not awesome. I begged for him to go back to sleep, no go!

One thing that has really helped is that JR usually comes home for lunch and I sleep while he is home to watch Logan, unfortunately he hasn't been home for the last two days or on Monday. This is very irritating to me. So here is the thing. Several weeks ago I won tickets to a Kenny Chesney concert and to a Texans preseason football game....I did go to the concert because Keith Urban was also there, but I decided to give the tickets to JR because it just isn't realistic for me to go to the game (which is tonight) due to lack of sleep and having to go to work. Anyway, he called one of his friends to go with him and it turns out that his friend had tickets to see the Astros play this afternoon, so they decided to go to the Astros game during the day and the Texans tonight. He made these plans either yesterday or the day before, I honestly cant remember, but the thing is he is taking half a day off from work in order to do this....HELLO we have no money, okay the tickets were free, but we cant afford to be taking days off from work! Not to mention that I am seriously sleepy, so I dont understand why he couldn't come home to help me out with Logan instead of going to the Astros game....I mean seriously does he need to go to two games today? Why cant he help me, although I will say that he asked his mom to babysit tonight so that I can get some sleep. Anyway I guess it isn't that big of a deal except for the fact that I am in pain, I have a horrible headache, my shoulder is killing me, my wrist, fingers, and thumb are killing me and I am soooooo Tired. Oh well, at least he wont be asking to go do something anytime soon...well he better not!!!

Have a good day everyone...tomorrow is Friday, I know that is exciting for most of you, but not me, it means I am another day closer to the dreaded Sunday paper.....GRRRRRRRRR!!!
