  1. Even if no one reads this, Venting makes me feel So much better!

    Well, This is my first 'STORY' on here. Where to begin..

    First off I have two beautiful kids with my boyfriend of 5 years. Or should I say with him and my MIL. We lived with her until my daughter was about 4 months old and in December we had to move back do to the cutbacks at my boyfriends job. I FEEL LIKE IM GOING CRAZYY!!! I am a proud SAHM and as soon as my MIL walks in the door I cringe.

  2. Must Rant Again

    Ok, MIL wakes me up at 4:30am because she can hear the coyotes yipping. And she swears they are in the side yard messing with the chickens. The coyotes have been yipping for the last 6 months that we lived in this house, so that is nothing new. They were across the road in the ravine around the neighbors cow barns.
    What makes this woman, who has to have the TV on so loud you can hear it all throughout the house, think that she can determine where the heck the coyotes are yipping from?!!!! ...

  4. Is it me?

    Am I being too sensitive?

    That's a hard question to ask myself. I'm getting furious at the Mensch because he won't pick up his clothes or complains when he has to do dishes. But this is nothing new.

    I want to slap my youngest daughter, Lulu, who has always been difficult. She is getting cranky with me. I know she's worried about her sister and is caring for her, but I don't deserve her venom.

  5. Im trying to not be cranky

    But ... I’ve been cranky lately, and my mama tiger claws are tungsten steel and razor sharp.

    For once, I have a “good” Great Facilitator and Eel story. The moment I sent out the email to let everyone know, the Eel called, very concerned, and asked if there was anything she could do to help. Good wishes, prayers, etc. She and the GF are in warmer climes at this moment, so there’s not a lot she can do. I do appreciate the good wishes, as does Birdy. The only “sour” note was when ...
