A completely pointless thread for us all to let out a frustration scream in!
I’ve noticed a few of us are *having a day* ‘n instead of gettin snippity at each other, we’ll just scream it out here.. yes??
My frustration of the day really is based around falling just short, regardless how hard I try…
*Screams into a pillow*
February 22, 2012 at 9:28 pm #874318My frustration of the day really is based around falling just short, regardless how hard I try…
*hugs*
I think most of us get that one. I’ve started setting really tiny goals that at least show me some progress–otherwise I get discouraged and give up.
My scream of the day is aimed at the medical community.
I AM NOT A GUINEA PIG. I AM NOT YOUR NEXT MEDICAL JOURNAL ARTICLE. QUIT EXPERIMENTING ON ME JUST BECAUSE I HAVE SOMETHING LESS COMMON THAN YOU USUALLY SEE.
And if you can’t fecking give me my old life back, then just say so and let’s move on. Show me what my new world is going to look like and let’s work to stabilize at that level instead. Because 4 years into this process, we’ve barely made any progress, and it’s getting really old.
*off to take the next batch of however many pills…*
February 22, 2012 at 9:28 pm #874319Yeah thats today . Fedex called to be let in the apartment . Buzed the creep up and he didn’t even come in the building . He left . I’m screaming mad about it . Cleaning and going thru stuff to get rid of is no fun either . My nerves are on a thin wire today .

No good 🙁 I’m sorry sweety! I wish medical community could just buck up and be honest for a change, and stop thining of their pockets first and foremost (Haven’t gone through it with human medical of late.. but I’m about to kick our vet in the shin if she doesn’t stop with “I need to take very expensive tests!” everytime we come in with something very simple! – It’s sad how those two worlds tend to co-inside with retardedness)
Yeah.. I try to set smaller goals, but the even remotely bigger ones almost always end up a fingertips touch away… even when I work super hard to make that extra lunge to grab it, life pulls what I’m reaching for back, just enough that I just miss it again… Happens a LOT to me… my life is prone to the “day late, dollar short” except it tends to make it “minute late, a penny short” so it’s salt to the wound… it also loves to give me one thing and get me actually looking forward to possibilities and then pull away my success..

Needed to vent a bit . Fedex , they are useless !I always ship to my parents place anymore (Small town, very personable people)… last time I shipped something within this town, it got halfway across the country in a couple of days, then sat in the local post office for another 4 days, doing nothing but waiting to be delivered because apparently they can’t figure out how to do their jobs >.< 'n I dread the idea of FedEX or UPS actually figuring out which apt to deliver to.. or if I miss it, it goes to the office… 'n when I'm shipping something like Windstones, I cringe at the idea of how many people who don't give a damn about what is in my box would be handling that very fragile dragon!
I also feel ya on the sorting stuff.. I have to do it again soon.. for the billionth time in the past year, due to lack of space =

had this problem too except my lazy ones won’t even go to the office…one of my orders, just a simple set of eyes, the shop marked only half of my apartment number so the guy was confused…but instead of going to the office to see which of the 70something number mine was, they marked it as an error and I had to call the hotline number…..
edit: forgot to add that the office is like 50 feet away from my building…..and they park their trucks right in front of the office every time!
4 things I'm looking for:
1. Mother Meerkat
2. production color Sitting Young Oriental dragons to be made in more colors besides VF, Brimstone would be awesome!
3. Female Griffin – Siamese with White
4. September Raffle Prize 2022 AHD Male GriffinFebruary 22, 2012 at 10:10 pm #874360last time I shipped something within this town, it got halfway across the country in a couple of days, then sat in the local post office for another 4 days, doing nothing but waiting to be delivered because apparently they can’t figure out how to do their jobs >.< 'n I dread the idea of FedEX or UPS actually figuring out which apt to deliver to.. or if I miss it, it goes to the office… 'n when I'm shipping something like Windstones, I cringe at the idea of how many people who don't give a damn about what is in my box would be handling that very fragile dragon!

Shipping services make me seriously nervous! They’re careless and lazy on a good day it seems like! That’s why I always make sure my stuff gets tracked/insured! Thankfully out in the country, our UPS guy seems nice enough, and my parents are good friends with the post office lady… I still worry like hell about my Windstones in the mail… but not as much as I do in the city, people just don’t give a damn about their jobs anymore *shakes head*
Grahh… time for me to get ready to head out for a nice 65 mile drive in high winds x.x … goodbye gas mileage! (That is about 18mpg on a good day in my truck) … seriously, this is a day that wasn’t worth waking up for!
February 22, 2012 at 10:14 pm #874363It does seem to be a snappish and peevish sorta day on here. Maybe there is a bitchy bug in the air. I know that even my own comments are coming off all wrong today and I have no intent of that at ALL!!!. Sorry if anything I have said on here today came off as Snappy!!! :~
Maybe I got the Bitchy bug!!!:~ Ah I better see if there is a fix for it cuz that could go all wrong with 4 kids and a hubby in the house!!! LOLOL 🙂 🙂
OK Gonna Take Kaytanas advice….

Ok I feel a little better. I wish my hubby wasn’t on night shift and I could do that for real out loud!!! 🙁 It would help a little hehehehe
February 22, 2012 at 11:03 pm #874387My frustrated scream of the day:
My boss is either trying to kill the entire QA department, get us to kill him, or BOTH!!! He doesn’t even THINK about how LONG all this extra stuff takes to do, then complains when any of us do overtime! OF COURSE WE’RE DOING OVERTIME YOU ADDED 2 EXTRA HOURS OF WORK TO OUR SCHEDULES!!!!!!
…. huh. I feel better. Sorta. Back to that grind tomorrow…..
February 22, 2012 at 11:08 pm #874388Madness continues . The package went to my mom in another apartment below me . Ugh , why couldn’t he told me ! My mom has ALS and it’s hard for her to get up and get the phone . She falls alot . And can’t talk . So I get the calls . Wonderful . When most people call they tell me they are here for her . Creep .
On another scream … flies ! They are driving me nuts ! This crazy winter and the flies are coming inside . UGH !
February 23, 2012 at 2:26 am #874429Really I should’ve posted my life at the moment here, instead of in Melody’s stuff… Dad will be in hospital a couple of days. They think he’s leaking blood internally, just can’t find where. He’s had a transfusion but still more testing to be done. Mum is with him and she’ll be late coming home. Having bronchitis sux – it hurts to cough and hurts to breathe and I get winded coming up the stairs. As for the divorce situation – I’ve no idea where this is coming from. Rod just announced one day that he was done and that’s been that. He wants me out of the house. He won’t go. Boyohs are thoroughly disgusted with him and don’t want to be where he is. I’m currently in Utah helping my parents and Rod and boyohs are in Idaho, at home. I have no idea how I’m going to be able to support myself and the boyohs. I’ve been out of the job market over 20 years. Who in their right mind would hire me? I’ve just been raising boyohs… Really makes you wonder about your decision making skills. If I goofed up the marriage decision so badly, what other important things have I screwed up?

tdmYou need time and open communication. All I can offer are huge hugs!!!

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmFebruary 23, 2012 at 2:45 am #874432I have been baffled and angry about this since you posted it, TDM. Won’t even talk about it? You give him 25+ years of your life and he won’t even TALK about?
At the VERY least you deserve an explanation! Who does that? Just walk in one day and be like, “Had a slow day at work, we’re low on milk, oh, and btw – I want a divorce. You need to be out in a week and I’m keeping the kids – also, you have no job and I want child support. Do you know where I left the newspaper?”
Okay, I’m assuming it wasn’t _quite_ like that, but really? Really??
I might have shot him.
I am so very sorry this is happening. I have no advice or no words really. 🙁
February 23, 2012 at 3:14 am #874435Kiya, you just basically got the scenario right. I stood there like I’d been gob-smacked. Slack jawed and dumbfounded. His answer to any question is silence and then he leaves the room. I think I’ve got a good attorney. His first questions when I called were “Are you safe?” and “Do you have a place to stay?” and “Do you have enough money to feed yourself?” I feel horrible for Ethan. He’d seen the papers back in June when Rod was going through them and didn’t tell anyone what he’d seen. No wonder why his doc put him on anti-depressants. Sean was completely blind sided by it. How do I help me boyohs? Mum and Dad won’t let me stay in our house without them being there to make certain that Rod doesn’t pull any sort of ‘fast one’ over me. I just want to go home. I want me boyohs and I miss the animals, too. Rod really thinks he’s going to get everything he wants ’cause he’ll play the mental health card from when I was hospitalized last August. And because of that, I’m scared he’ll get his way…

February 23, 2012 at 3:32 am #874436Well, the good? news is that in most states your boys are old enough to get a SIGNIFICANT say in what happens next with them.
The child support thing is absurd. If you haven’t worked in 20+ years, that’s nearly impossible.
However, if you haven’t worked in 20+ years, he _might_ get the house depending on the laws in your state.
As for mental things – you may have to go through a current evaluation, but something from last August probably won’t have much bearing.
*HUGS*
February 23, 2012 at 3:33 am #874437It’s still a big WTF. It also means he’s been thinking about it for a while, so it makes his silence even more weird. Could his job loss have anything to do with it? I recall you mentioning something…
