Having a LOUSEY day, week and month...
First of all...... Tasker is having some health problems. No sure what is going on. Last week we went in for a "routine visit" and discovered that he has lost 20lbs since November. I knew he had dropped some weight but didn't think it was that much. At almost 12 the possiblilities are endless and we taken blood urine and poop in with no results back. I don't want my puppy to get old and sick. 
Next, my job may be in jeapordy. I love my job, it's the best job I have ever had and at MY AGE I'm not interested in finding a new one. A couple weeks ago another Cardiac Rehab program opened in town, It is in a HUGE new fitness facility in town and run by a competing hospital. The hospital that employees me is "out of town" so the local Dr's (for political reasons) are being pressured to send their patients to the new facility. I moved here to take this job and if my program closes I will have to go back to the hospital to work, almost 60 miles from my home. FINALLY after years of waiting I have my own home again and I don't want to leave it, plus Doug works at Cornell and he doesn't want to move either. This weekend Doug and I had a disagreement and since neither one of us are confrontational people we just chose not to speak to each other all weekend  I know.................. Dr Phil would say HOW'S THAT WORKING FOR YA??????? So how do you END A STAND OFF when you are BOTH stubborn and STUPID???????
And the iceing on the cake was today when I found out that one of my oldest and dearest patients died this morning. I have to tell the others in his class tomorrow and I REALLY DREAD that 
We also have some financial "stuff" going on...... Doug's ex wife took him to court for the millionth time last and on Friday we received notice that they have almost doubled the alimony he is required to pay (on top of a HUGE child support payment). I have no objection to Child support, it is a given and an obligation but NYS has very antiquated alimony laws and it just doesn't seem fair. OK, I've dumped
PLEASE PLEASE will some send me a one way ticket to BERMUDA???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Poor poor pitaful me  |

| Sail away from stress Ginny!

Things work out for the best, so stay cool. 
Sorry to hear about all the stuff. Give Tasker a big hug! And hugs to you too.  |

I'm so sorry to laugh at your hard times, but this absolutely cracked me up.  I always know what's right (thanks dr. phil), but my stubbornness says and reacts in its own way.
Anyway, just to show you how generous I am... I can forward you one of my lottery winnings I received in email if you'd like? That way you can go on that vacation!!! I hope this week turns out better and Tasker starts feeling like a little puppy soon. ((hugs)) |

So on the way home I told him if he would talk to me he might get a little "make up____" tonight, MEN...he babbled all the way home 
I know it's been tough for you lately Deanna, I should not complain about my problems, they are really pretty small. HUGS!!!! |
| It's in the air today, that's for sure. I was awoken this morning to the sound of a dog puking next to me. It's been downhill every since.
I hope things improve for you and that Tasker just dropped a lot of winter weight. |
| I'm sorry, Ginny!
I do understand. The last couple of months have been sheer he** here. My ex-husband and I have been in court twice in the past couple of months. The next hearing is 7/5/07... He thinks California will just back off when he says he doesn't want them to have jurisdiction of the case, HA! He is 5 years in arrear on the amount of $600 for child support and they have every right to collect since I registered the support order with the court in 2005. He thinks by saying he is not allowing them to take jurisdiction that they won't be able to collect the $$ owed. He is also in breach of contract on our divorce stipulation 5 1/2 years now. Then we have our emergency hearing in Sept to stop the summer visitation (for this summer  , until the issues with the girlfriend are resolved, or she is out of the picture) and make modifications to the visitation schedule. I decided not to send Ryan to see him because his psychotic girlfriend has threatened the lives of mine and my family. She has hacked into my computer and a bunch of other things. I asked him to sign a simple stipulation stating that his girlfriend will not be around Ryan during the 7 week visit. He would not, so I won't be sending him. I guess his psycho girlfriend is more important than his son and that is sad. The Judge told me to use my best judgement in a previous hearing. Well being that it's like 3000 miles away and I cannot be there with him.... I said NO! I hope the Judge is okay with this when we went to court. Technically I am not against the court order until Sept.
We have a mediation hearing in August and then the court date is set for September and that is with an "Emergency Hearing".
Tomorrow is my SSDI hearing. I really, really need to get this! I have no medical insurance and cannot afford the high risk catergory of insurance I would be eligible for.
I have been under so much stress!! It sucks! 
I hope everything works out with your job. As for your situation with Doug, just tell him you love him and that you are sorry that you had a disagreement and leave it at that. (Technically you are not admitting to being wrong, just sorry that you did argue. ) That works for me 
I am praying that everything is okay with Tasker! BIG s from someone else under a lot of stress.  |
| Sigh. I think it is in the air as ButtersStotch said. Our A/C just went on the fritz. Now you may think "so what you don't need A/C." Well when the weather is 110, 111, 109 all this week (and for the next couple months) you don't want to be without it.
Sorry about all the mess going on with you right now. Things sure do come in multiples it seems. |
| Im sorry to hear of all your horrible probs.....I hope and pray Tasker is just fine!! Do what Elissa does on the apology....I hate being in an argument....but Im the best at the silent treatment.......so do what your heart tells you....
knock wood....besides being friggin friggin hot here....everything is great |
| Ginny, I hope things start to look up for you soon.
I won the lottery at work, last week...A big $47..!
But of cource that was after we had a flood in our bathroom, my older boy tell me he no longer believes in a God, and we find out my younger one is smoking pot...
Yeah, things are a bit rough eveywhere, I think.... |

Want me to keep going then? I came home from a doctor's appointment in which I had to wait over 2 hours to see the doctor to find a letter in my mailbox from the IRS telling me something was wrong with a return from 2 years ago and they want $4000 from me. I called my tax woman and she said to come right over. I grab all my stuff, go to leave the house and slam the door-- just in time to realize that my keys were still in the house. I called James at work and on his cell, no answer. Of course, it's super hot and uncomfortable to be sitting outside, too. And, thanks to having all the trees trimmed this weekend, I have no shade. All the dogs were looking at me through the window like, what's going on, mom? Why are you out there without us? Finally James calls me back and comes home and takes me to the tax woman's house. Guess what year of tax paperwork I couldn't find to take with me? Yup, the only one that I needed. Luckily we were able to look up some of the things we needed elsewhere and it appears that I do not actually owe the government that money. I hate the IRS. Every year, I swear they just pick on me to make trouble. James felt bad for me and took me straight to dinner from the tax woman's house so that helped things a bit. It's just been one of those days that make you want to crawl back in bed and pull the covers over your head. |
| My uncle passed away today. |
| I'm so sorry about your uncle Ron.
Also to the rest of you for your problems too. We've had ours here too. My mom died in 2004. The IRS JUST decided 3 months ago that we owed more taxes from that year and decided to levy all of our accounts, AND garnish Norms wages........ they took every bit of money we had saved up from the past 2 years of Norm working in Iraq. Our mrtg. just went WAY up (one of those funky ones)....... The window on this house leaks and got to have them come pull off the siding on the back of the house........... Then the day after the puppies were born....... pipe outside burst and flooded my basement! Norm and I got into it from different continents as to WHY we don't have money put away at this ........... (try that one Dr. Phil) The mail lost my stud payment and bank won't replace the cc for 3 months so i'm out that money and had to pay it a 2nd time. last friday night i ate ONE RAISIN, and my back molar filling fell to pieces. Finally went to dentist today............ and got a new filling, but his drill slipped and tore into and cut the whole bottom of my tongue to pieces........i cannot open my mouth to eat really....... so on that note. The boys are here for the night to watch the dogs and i'm going to bed!!!! Ali |
| I wish I hadn't read this thread -- it is overwhelming! I hope everything goes better for everyone!! |
| Valarie, youd better come see these pups quick! They are not gonna be small much longer!!!
Ali |
| Im so sorry everybody's having a crappy day
Hug your pups! |
WOW everyone I'm with Val on this one, OVERWHELMING 
Hope all improves and everyone is on the Up and Up, smile all.
Ginny there is always a spare bed here to get away from your lousy day/week/month. |
| Mine can't rival some of those. I hope you all have a better day today.
Mine was just crappy - literally! While we were outside practicing rally this evening, Riley (the rat terrier) had a poop attack in the playroom - carpet of course. I got out the shampooer, and the sprayer was plugged and it took me an hour to do a 15 minute job. I just got it all done, shampooer washed out and came back in.......to find a pile of diarrhea on the same carpet!!!! Put Riley outside, scraped up the nasty stuff and re-shampooed the spot. And of course, the monthly gift to women decided to come early today.
to you all, for a better day. |

Sorry about all the mess going on with you right now. Things sure do come in multiples it seems. There are certain parts of the country that a/c during the summer is as important as heat during the winter in the north. Once, after a hurricane,, I went 2 weeks without elec so no a/c. It was ruff.....I hope you get it fixed soon. |

My crappy day saturday and the fight with the kids dancing school doesn't even compare to the rest of you guys. Sorry about it all,I hope everyone gets some relief. Ron, I'm sorry about your uncle. Ginny, I hope everthing is ok with Tasker. Everyone else.... you all need a |

Ron I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your uncle......I will keep you in my prayers. |
| DON'T LET ME GET STARTED!!! |
| I was thinking of you Helen.
Yes, you DEFINITELY can be in the club of those with a legitimate gripe!! Ron, sorry to hear about your uncle dying. |
got sheep wrote: I was thinking of you Helen. Yes, you DEFINITELY can be in the club of those with a legitimate gripe!! That is very sweet of you to think of me . The upside today is my granddaughter is coming in to visit for the summer TOMORROW! Of course the downside is I can't go outside because of my skin/shingles, but her Mom/Papa/Uncle and the two dogs should keep her busy. (go away shingles, plz go away) Very hard not to participate in Florida with all there is to do...bummer. It will just be nice to know she is in my home with her nice smiling face...you can't beat the smile of a grandchild.Ron, sorry to hear about your uncle dying. |
| Wow, it seems like this is the month for over-the-top stuff to happen to WAY too many of us. Our own home stuff is okay but we're going through a very rough time with my father-in-law's health. In and out of the hospital, yes to surgery one day, no to surgery the next, etc., etc. Very stressful.
Think it has anything to do with the moon??? |
| This is so silly but when I got home later that evening, I realized that I never went through the rest of the mail after my initial annoyance with the IRS letter. I found a letter hand addressed to me from my mother-in-law's company. I thought, how weird, would could this be? I opened it up and it was a drawing from my 5 year old niece, thanking me for some t-shirts I gave her a few days before. It had little pictures that she drew of her wearing the shirts. I have never been taken with a child's artwork before but it really made me smile after a crappy day! |
| Oh my! OH MY! Wow! So much is going on. I've been through spells like that, and the best thing is that they pass. Everything really, honestly, does work out in the end! HONEST!!!! And as for not talking during and after an argument...STOP IT RIGHT NOW! If you don't resolve, you don't solve...and things fester. Even if a solution isn't found, you have to say, Look, I know we've been fighting. We may never eye to eye on this, but...we are partners and we must communicate...so....let's chat! Good luck! |
It's ok... we made up last night  |

Hugs to all of us! I suspect that our problems may be due to the phases of the moon or perhaps little green men on Mars! My own problems are running parallel to yours: a boss from hell, the real possibility that my contract won't be renewed in December (unemployed in January? brrrr!) a collapsing spine and an eye that doesn't want to see properly,my horse has foundered (he's 25 but holding on) Willoughby threw up on the rug before I went to work yesterday, the weather has been terrible, etc. etc. I won't go into further details. I have a book that I found a few years ago, "The Book of Answers" The idea is that if you have a problem, you can ask a question and open the book to a random page. My question was: "Should I look fo another job?" and the answer was:"Collaboration will be the key" Now, I need to figure that out!  |
| You are collaborating - with us!!! |
| I hadn't posted my week's disaster, since it seems pretty mild compared to everyone elses, but just to fill out the pattern...
On Wednsday (as we were getting packed for my Thursday/Friday show), Scott was walking across the bridge/ramp thing that goes from my new studio down to the driveway, when I heard a huge CRACK, and saw Scott go flying forward onto the gravel drive! The ramp had snapped in two, and poor Scott was pitched onto his hands on the gravel. He tore a HUGE amount of skin and flesh off of his left hand, basicaly turning the palm into hamburger. AAACCCKKK!
He didnt want to go all the way into Anchorage to go to the emergency room, and our little local urgent care place was closed, so I helped him clean the wound, pick out bits of gravel, and bind it up, till he could go in to have it stitched up the next day. All of you nurses....you can keep your jobs.....that is not for me!!!! |
I am sorry that so many of you are having a trying month. With the exception of Ron, I hope that like my scare with my father, when the trouble settle down you will find some nice comforts.  |
| I'm telling you, when it rains it pours on everyone! The last two weeks haven't been that good for me either. My grandfather passed away last Wednesday, SamSun needs his physical and I haven't had time to take him to the vet, I want to go to the beach and I'm broke!!!
Hope everyone's luck changes very soon, including mine. |
| As I sit here reading the numerous tales of bad, worse and horrible, I'm glad we all have a forum in which to vent and share the troubles of the day. Somehow, sharing them makes life just a little lighter. Thank goodness all these problems will resolve themselves in time.
Sheepie hugs and kisses for every body! |

And I'm sorry about the bad things going on for the rest of you. Two weeks ago, I took Ben to the vet because he just wasnt acting right. Off his meals, which is not a good thing as it usually means he ate something not intended as food. The vet checked him, gave me a pep talk and Ben perked up with all of the extra attention - for 36 hours anyway. Last Friday, he didn't eat. Saturday morning, he ate breakfast and threw up. The vet wasn't able to see him, so we decided to watch him for a bit and to go the ER vet if needed. About the time we would decide he was a bit better, he would throw up (hours between episodes). Finally, about 5 PM, he threw up a washcloth. We are feeling guilty that we somehow messed up and left something out for him to get - but so relieved that he won't have another surgery. And Riley was vomiting Saturday morning too - at first we thought food, but Bailey was fine after breakfast. I need new carpet. My m-i-l still doesn't get around very well after her fall from the tree the end of March. And she loves her pain meds, going without her teeth and being waited on. She and my f-i-l are not nice to be around either. They live in another state. My daughter's scoliosis is getting worse, at a faster rate than we anticipated. Surgery is in her future, just a matter of time. She is starting PT school in August and it is year round for three years. OU is about to raise their tuition again (for the 4th year in a row), this time 9.9%. that means since my daughter was accepted, it has gone up a full 30%. When you talk aout-of-state rates, that is very significant. We are in a better position to pay it now as the two older kids have real jobs (which they love) and are in grad school. My son broke up with his girlfriend last month. We liked her. He is dealing with it better than whn he broke up with the last one. He sold his Mustang (his project car) and paid off his outstanding debt, which is wonderful. I am driving to my son's apt every morning to pick up his rescued puppy and bring her over to play with my furkids. We met halfway in the eveing to give her back. She is a sweetheart, very smart. So I am spending 90 minutes a day, 75 miles and 12 tollbooths for this cutie. I am not able to get things on my list done while she is around - puppy's get into everything. With all of the rain, we have a leak by the fireplace. And some of the decking under the shingles will need to be replaced. If it get dry enough to do the work - not that I am complaining about rain as we are still in a level 3 drought restriction. We had over 8 inches last month and 9 inches so far this month. And that is at the aiport - most areas have had more. My husband's company was bought out 2 years ago by a former Super Bowl winning QB, a guy who actually played college ball for my favorite team. The guy, who we thought the world of, told my husband he was one of the reasons that he bought the place and that he couldn't run it without him. You've probably already figured out that he replaced my husband with "his own person." My husband didn't take it personally as it is common to bring in your own people, but having the guy lie to him hurt. It was also a time when we had three kids working on their undergrad degrees - not good timing. My husband found a job within three weeks, for a bit less money, but good potential. I've got the QB's college pcture and attached it to the dart board. I also quietly giggled when replacement guy cost the QB some money and good will by not doing his job correctly. Mr QB is now trying to sell the business as it has become the worst performing one in the region. So sad.
The job my husband took was as an assistant to a guy doing what my husband had done. His new boss, very bright guy, was in so-so health. My husband was hired to take over if the guy had to be hospitalized again and when he finally retired. We were able to dip into savings for college expenses, as our intent has always been to have them graduate without owing any money. Last summer, my husband was questioning if he took the right job - sick guy boss was getting paid very well & my husband was doing all of the work. The guy would be stupid to quit - I'd kill my husband if he did while in that position. My husband was still getting job offers, both local and from some companies that would mean we would have to move. In November, sick guy sent an inappropriate email to the staff and was fired. My husband moved up. The termination wasn't my husband's fault and the timing was a blessing for us. We didn't have to move.
I have a cousin who fractured her hip in a motorcycle accident at age 16. The upside was that they found a small tumor and were able to remove it. Normally it isn't found until it is too late to treat successfully. She is enjoying her first grandchild now. |

| We have been in a similia bad way.
As soon as west Teaxs hit the 90's, i noticed that the carpet was wet right by the closet that holds the blower for the central heat and air unit. Then i noticed it making noises, then the whole thing died. So we had to deal extensivley with our home warranty company- who were so unhelpful and slow i could've reached through the phone and seriously hurt someone. Apparently the unit is over 35 years old and and all the damage was secondary so they won't replace or cover anything It has now been three weeks with unusally hot and muggy. It has rained constantly- and the windows leak!!! UNfortunatley and fortunatley my hubby broke down and now we are paying $6,000 of r a new 16.9 SEER Heil unit with a heat pump. Our checking account will never recover
My Americorps term is over in less than 5 weeks, so i will need a new job that will pay at least 11 bucks an hour, and will work around my full time class schedule. Which is highly unlikley. My sister borrowed my car and left the widows down during the worst thunderstorm yet. My interior is soaked thru and thru!!! I guess this is just life, pretty sucky-but it has to run itself out eventually...... right

Kidding aside, good for you! How appropriate in this thread since Tasker's mom is a proponent of getting back on the horse. Sorry to hear of all of the great challenges and losses facing everyone!

Anyway, so great to hear you're dating! I love reality shows, so you should attach a webcam to ya and let us come along. |
| OH! Don't start me!!!! When I moved into my last house, I didn't have air conditioning. So...I bought central and had it installed. I was at work when it was installed.

| Thank you all soooo much ! Now I know it just isn't me!
With the things that happen to both my fur-kids,then last night my husband got sideswiped in his truck driving home from work. Thank God he is ok because after looking at his truck when he got home his window is all chipped up from where his mirror was torn off and hit the glass. If his window was open he may have been really hurt or worse.
For me this month has been our Montage payment! First the pup and the emergency vet, then his surgery (that was not to expensive ) then Harley in ICU for 2 days (that was expensive) now to repair the damage to my husbands truck!
At least I don't feel like I am the only one being picked on!...LOL
I hope everyone has some Good things coming their way soon.......

| Never leave the house or go to bed angry at your spouse. We don't know when death will come, but I wouldn't want to part in anger, never again having the opportunity to say "I'm sorry."
I believe things happen for a reason, that somewhere within the problem, or the solution, there's a lesson to be learned. I try to find the lesson, but if I don't see it, someone else usually points it out to me.
Doctor calls. Says he's going on vacation, doesn't want hubby to run out of meds, so come pick up RX. OK. Went that afternoon, go in, come back out, and car won't start. Hubby on oxygen, it's hot, he can't do anything. We sat there a few minutes, an old friend came out of the same office. That was a blessing. Her ride took her down the road to send a wrecker. He shows up, I walk to the repair shop (about 3 blocks), they tow the car in, and before its even off the wrecker he comes in and says, he can't really tell us what the problem is because the car started right up! My logic is that for some reason, God did NOT want us on the road. I was disappointed because I had some running that I WANTED to do, BUT, from past experience, I've learned that when God detains me, STAY PUT! Yes, it ended up costing me money, but....... the last time I fought Him, and rounded every obstacle He put in front of me almost cost me my life. I ended up getting smashed between a SUV's front end, and my car door. Spent 3 months in the hospital in traction with a broken pelvic bone, plus......... So, when things happen that seem bad, look for some "good" in it. God bless. mouthypf |

My own life has been quite upside down for the last while, and still is, but I just try to keep thinking it's got to get better sometime... |
| Reminds me of the old joke........................
They said CHEER UP, things could get worse. So I cheered up and sure enough, THINGS GOT WORSE |

| Wow guys! I haven't been able to be on the board much this week and thought I would stop in for lunch. I am really sorry for all of you (except Mandy of course - Woo Hoo) and I hope you can all weather the storms until they pass. Hang in there and like Laurel said "HUG YOUR SHEEPDOG!" It won't solve anything but it will make you feel a little better. Take care everyone. |
