I am listening to music now. Good morning everyone! Morning duck! It's good to hear you got some cleaning done. It always makes me feel better when the house is clean 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Nobody contacted me at all yesterday. I'll see family on Saturday and Sunday for Thanksgiving celebrations. Mom's sisters will say things like oh I got so busy I just forgot all about it until it was too late. So saying you forgot all about your sister's death day is worse in my opinion but they'll say it. Nobody cares at all. That's the hardest part when your mom passes away. Everyone makes it very clear they don't care at all.

Nightjar Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I dragged myself to town also.. Glad I did. It made me feel more human in spite of my awful night's sleep. I managed to get some make up, though not quite what I wanted 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I went to town too. I had to finish holiday shopping so I said I'm going to use my 5 dollar Rite Aid coupon spend 25 dollars and get 5 dollars off so I did and I got another coupon for 5 dollars and said well I'll go to the other Rite Aid and spend that. Now what's one thing I got today? Can I name one thing? Well yes I got a 5 dollar coupon today. I did mention one thing right? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epictetus Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Tomorrow being Thanksgiving in my country I am going to have my occasional Diet Pepsi. What's that poem . . .I'd rather have a free bottle in front on me than a prefrontal lobotomy." Having my Diet Pepsi . . . that's going to be my Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it or endure it! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon22ae Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) Happy Thanksgiving (FWIW)! Sadly, it's just this and a few weeks till Christmas, then New Year's drunken fest, and suddenly the drudgery rematerializes into a brand new year. Don't you hate Jan. 2 (or wherever the first workday of the new year happens to fall)? Edited November 25, 2021 by anon22ae 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duck Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 My third sister Sharon is so dumb, She stresses me out with her banking issues. She is older than me. She still does not know how to use computers and to log on to her bank account online. She is getting worse everyday. She believes I am God and I can fix anything. She works with computers all day at her job. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get phone calls from family asking if I have done it & when I ask if they could I get the story of how painful it is for them. I'll be going there today by myself. I just have to remember I'm honoring my parents & my sis-in-law & to the heck with the family. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my town library they have free classes for the older generation who isn't good with computers and needs to learn because everything is done online nowadays. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy making things look nice honestly. My OCD kicks in and I even clean the gravestones with magic erasers. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightjar Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) This evening has been hard. Just too much going on here at mom's when I thought we were having a quiet evening. I was just relaxing when the doorbell and mom's phone start going off. We had more people here again. It's never ending and stressful for me. I need peace and quiet in my life Edited November 25, 2021 by Nightjar 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I know I say I want a normal life but there's no way I could handle every day with people. Having to put on a show Saturday and Sunday means I have to work every day the rest of the month in some way to get ready for the show I have to put on. There's not a chance on earth I could do it every day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
