Few Randoms

There are a few things/phrases that bug me.  Since I write this blog it will be about what I see as not so important to rant/bitch or just talk about.  I guess that's why I have this little piece of the interweb or tinternet.

YES I hate those two last words - LAZY.

Ok I cut right to the chase and I am throwing you right into the crap that bugs me and by all means is it NOT an exhaustive list.

1. A guy should never say,"Do you have anymore bog roll?" Seriously? Toilet paper is to long of a word?

2. I kinda like the phrase "pack it in" which means stop it already.  There is a commercial where a kid is yelling at her dad saying "pack it in, you're showing me up" It makes me want to grab whoever made the commercial and show them manners! If our dwarfs ever told one of us to "pack it in" oh man...

3. Using Facebook to make people ask you whats wrong and then never answer. LAME

4. The texting culture in England (limited to people I text) NEVER spelling HAVE they say hav - seriously is that "e" going to make or break you? There are tons of things that bug me in texting but that tops it!

Ok Ok This is just a touch but I can't get to fired up or what else can I talk about at a later date?

The House Hunt

Well I have been house hunting for years but just recently it seems that Prince Charming has got on board for real, real!

We live in a matchbox - seriously. I have never lived someone so small but its an experience right?

So I have this list called, "All I want" because PC always says, "Oh its all you want but what about xyz."  HA so yes it became a list.

We have a looked at a few houses but the last one I said oh perfect this lil freaking room could become the master bathroom aka en suite. He said why there is a bathroom right here? UMMMM Do you hear me? This was my very first ALL I WANT - I want/need my own bathroom.  I don't like sharing towels or bathroom stuff. I want to keep my make up and stuff in the bathroom NOT on the dresser in the bedroom.
Please god get me a shaver plug too (110v) so I can plug in my toothbrush in the bathroom not the kitchen once a week!

Sorry I got carried away....

PC says thats nuts so I say then lets move on because I dont want this house if I cant have my own bathroom.  Deal breaker? I was like Yep.

So if it happens I *will* get my bathroom and the plans in my head include a walk in closet too since it is a small room to make into shower room and closet LOL

Give me an inch and I will take a mile when it comes to "all I want".

Awww suck it

Is what I feel like saying sometimes.  I do always try to see the positive things of most things but there are these details that crawl under my skin and I can't shake them - EVER!
Being an educated expat wife, mom, stepmom and friend is stupid hard but we just plow on and smoosh a smile on our face.
I am educated yet I can't find a job so I feel as if I am sponging of PC and I always feel bad spending "his" money.  Yes I know its "our" money and he doesn't say don't but I have never lost this sense of independence.
I don't have the same friend circle even after all these years here which kinda sucks too.
I have gained weight and feel miserable but don't have the money to spend on a gym because at this point I think this is what I need.
Am I a good wife? I hope so even with my snotty moments I am sure he loves me to pieces.
Mom/Stepmom? I say hell yes I am as our life revolves around their health and happiness.  Sometimes I still don't feel good enough.  I am sure this is my own hang up but it is what it is - right?

Thank goodness I drive and have that freedom or I might have killed someone by now!

Great British Summer

Seriously I could leave it with HA.  Everyone always talks about the great British summer - I call BS.

Job hunt

The job hunt was kinda put on the back burner but now is back with a force!
I need a day job and not all weekends. Having a family requires me to be home a bit more plus I enjoy the family aspect. I always wanted it but it has been ignored and the thought was dismissed. I now know I want this. It's in my DNA, no matter if it's my "typical family" or not.

I say we add more dogs! Dogs are the best family members. :-)

I have figured out here the way to get a job is to "know" someone since everyone needs a job nowadays.

So if ya have one pass it my way.

Lennox

If you haven't heard of this dogs name then you live under a rock.

Please google save lennox even if it is too late for this poor boy, there are others.

No animal should be taken from a home without a good reason and a measurement is not one.

This story breaks my heart for the family and Lennox. Us as a human race failed to protect a harmless animal. We failed as being superior. Belfast council are complete assholes and I hope this haunts them all their days. Maybe it will be the same fear poor lennox had being kept in a windowless cement cell with no affection and just waiting. Who wants to sleep on saw dust a next to where you poop. :-(

This law needs to be abolished as it is discrimination FFS how is it right against a defenseless animal?

I am so sad an angry. I hope everyone gets involved to fix this for other animals that never did anything but be born.

Sun and Laughter

It is amazing to me what sun and laughter can do for your mood.  I realise I need sun more then I thought, it does give you a boost (no those lights don't work the same).  I need my Prince Charming by my side sitting in the sun with a cocktail and laughing about our life and fun jokes.  I need friends who you have laugh's and inside jokes because honestly its true when they say there is nothing better then a good belly laugh!

Note to self PC and I are taking out own holiday next year to reconnect, get sun and laugh!  I miss that.

Remember to laugh loads and get some sun ;-)
