nettiesaur Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 QUOTE (Mara @ Jul 29 2010, 04:03 PM) What's happening to my neighborhood???? Seriously. I came home today to find the ONLY entrance to my street blocked by a cop who had just pulled over one of my neighbors (who just moved in with his family, three doors down from me) and was frisking him. Recently we have had a house full of meth-heads arrested, there are some prostitutes one block over. . .what the hell is going on????

Janie Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 (edited) Kermy the kitty is getting old. I had to drop him off at the vets for 3-5 days so they could get a better look at his kidneys which aren't functioning well at all. This is not a good thing. The other cat is meowing nonstop and looking all over for his brother. Also... this weather. It's finally down to the mid-70s. This weather I can handle. Barely though. I cannot stand hot weather and bright sunny skies. I moved to Seattle for a reason. I want my clouds and I miss my rain.

Hey, in Mara's defense, I live in a neighborhood that was decent when we moved in. It's a pit of hell now. The first house you see when you drive into our subdivision is quite obviously a meth house. Foil on all of the windows, usually ten trash bags out front at any point, no grass at all in the yard, cars in front coming and going at all times 24/7. Sucks. Cops have been camped for weeks. Nothing yet. Also, we had one sexual offender in the hood not far from where my kids catch the school bus. Another one moved in a couple of months ago even closer to us. Nice... Anyway... this week has absolutely drained the life out of me. It's mostly self-inflicted B.S. that was completely avoidable. But, right now, I feel shredded nonetheless. My mind, my body, my self-esteem are trashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought that I'd come to the arctic and get heat exhaustion. You're not in the arctic.......not even close. The arctic is still another 550km north........

Mara Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 My husband decided last Thursday morning to be helpful and water my rosebushes for me. Yesterday, we were doing a bit of yardwork and I went to grab the hose to wash some mud off the driveway. He forgot to turn off the freaking hose. It was on for THREE DAYS! (We have a sprayer nozzle on it, so it's not like water was flowing freely down the yard into the street and no one noticed). The man was utterly nonplussed about it. "So, it's not like it was actually running." I had to patiently try to explain backflow valves to him. I don't think he'll make that mistake again. God, I can't wait to see our water bill.

Not too old for an indoor kitty. For some reason, his kidney failure came on rapidly. He's still at the vets and will be there until Tuesday. We got to see him yesterday. His front left leg was completely bandaged up to keep the IV in because apparently if any IV tubing is showing, he chews right through it. Even within the past week or so, I noticed a huge change. He hardly ate at all but would not stop drinking water. They'll do another blood test on Monday and hopefully that will give us a better look at his actual kidney function but the vet said he may only live another six months. Hopefully she's wrong.

southernjim Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Finding out through my mom that my uncle and grandmother have been complaining about my girlfriend behind her back and mine. my uncle had the balls to compare her to a woman who got kicked out of rehab for screwing too many of the "inmates", but he can't say a f***ing word to me. My little family just got smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Whompus Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 So today was the first day of tennis practice. And we were doing some conditioning. It was basic stuff really, like running, push ups, squats, shimmying from one cone to the other. But it was all hard work. Not to mention the 20 minutes of constantly moving your feet while hitting forehands before that. Well i didn't feel too good, so after practice i drove home. FAST!!!! I almost make it into the house, when all of a sudden, i throw up all over my deck! It sucked!!! But i felt better after that! I can't wait till tomorrows practice! *sarcasm* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thing2jordan Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 My little brother shut a car door on my hand. If I had done that to him, my mom would have smacked me across the face. Since he did it to me, however, he just got the stink eye. I still can't bend one of my fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
