Stop making me grumpy world!

August 26th, 2012 at 05:11 pm

Rant post...totally OT.

This morning I am grumpy...and its NOT ME...its everyone else. (tongue in cheek) ... Move faster, step aside, stop whining, get a life....etc...etc...

The good thing is that I am working on changing my attitude because it looks like a beautiful day out there.

Im not sure if this is a stage in life or just a buildup from being sick and then hurting my neck and being in pain for a week...but everything is MAKING ME ANGRY. From the people driving slower than I want, to the shoppers who cut in front of me in the store isles, to any little annoyance...suddenly, I am near rage mode. And I hate it. At least I am aware that its happening and consciously wanting to change it.

Grrr.

The hubs paycheck this week was much smaller that we expected ($500 rather than $1000)..but it was still an 'extra' paycheck. The electricity bill is $352- quite a jump from the $175 its been the past couple of months. I need to find out what caused it..but Im pretty sure it is due to the ac at the rental house.
My budget is behind and I am pondering pulling some $ from savings rather than start September in the red. (Thankfully I am only off about $300- which I can repay by November)

The next few weeks I should stay on track fairly easily. No extra expenses or guests. I am going to make a meal plan today, which will help keep food costs under control.

I am feeling much better. I think I pulled a muscle in my neck from caughing so much...or kocked something out of joint...but it has sure hurt. I massaged and tried heat/cold for a couple of hours last night and so far today the pain is all but gone. NOW THAT is something to smile about!!!

I apologize for the rant. I really am that grumpy and want to get over it. Do they make a pill for this?? lol. If I leave the house today, I promise to behave. Big Grin

    You and me both!

    If only the younger generation (my kids) and the older generation (my inlaws) would get with the program and schedule and decrease their grumblings (Youth have the benefit of energy and the Olders have the benefit of being retired and having time).

    And the weather: If only it had cooperated and not rained out our parish picnic today (which had moved inside and become a pricey potluck!)

    Time for me to take a nap!!

    Having suffered from chronic pain for 2 years now, I can tell you pain makes you grumpy! Luckily it is under pretty good control at this point. That is probably why you are grumpy. Do you have one of those things you can heat up in the microwave and put around your neck? I have one in the freezer and one for the microwave. They help a lot (so do pain meds...haha).
