It's getting hott in here!

I’m a little upset at how slowly time is moving. To make matters worse is the air conditioning is broken, we are on the third floor and we are melting! They sent the cafeteria staff home, because it was crazy hot in the kitchen. They should send us home too! If I am to stay here longer I will not be able to hide my pit stains. We all know how unflattering that looks on a lady!

I seriously can not think, breathe, talk or move in this heat. It's slowing down everything we do and really making us feel sick!

I fell bad, I turned my mom down on her dinner invite, mainly because I have not had the best week and I am pretty irritable bitchy. I love spending time with my mom (now that I’m an adult) and I don’t want to risk ruining it by being short with her. Mom’s have a way of asking question to push you over the edge. Not to make it seem like my mom is a knit picker, but I’m sure someone out there knows what I mean.

Dude! It’s really fucken hot in here!

Happy Friday!!!

My hopes for the weekend:

Start and finish the laundry! I am known for starting a load on Friday night and finishing on Wednesday.

Go to the market. I looked in the fridge this morning and we have some Kraft cheese singles and cheap Wine, so we need food!!!

Go for a run/gym. I have totally neglected the gym this summer, so maybe I’ll go this weekend, then again I always say that!

Get a car wash. My poor car! I haven’t had a wash in almost a month!

Do something fun! I hate my day job, so I really try to do something fun, but usually end up park on the sofa watching something stupid.

Sleep in on Sunday! We live really close to a church, so on Sundays we are awaken waaaaay too early by the nose and it makes me grouchy!

*** PS have a great weekend!

Keep your mouth shut!

About a year ago a family friend was looking for renters. I had a friend that was looking to rent a house... perrrr-fect right?!

WRONG!

I told my mom and her friend, Nurse Betty that my friend, Sally Sales was looking for a place, I went on and on about how wonderful and clean she was, because you want a clean person to rent your house! How Sally was just super, a lot like me and had really good values and a good job, that her husband Handy Manny was just great! So they met and all were agreed that this was a smart move. Sally and Manny gave Betty their deposit, moved in and everyone was happy.

This was in August of 2008. In December, my mama and Betty were talking. Come to find out that Sally and Manny have not paid their rent since they moved in! The only fucking payment made was the deposit! Betty was stressing out because she's had to scramble to get money to pay the mortgage. Well now I feel responsible (partly) because I referred them. So my mom is like make nice with them, maybe she'll tell you what’s going on? I personally did not want to do that, I have my own problems and I don't want to start worrying about someone else's! So I do as I'm told and she talks to me like nothing is going on. So I try harder because now I want to know what is really going on... turns out that they have not paid a penny! They were having money issues and were not able to pay. ****gasp****

How and where is it ok to not pay rent for 3 months?! Well by the time she finally paid, they were 5 months in of not paying and owed Betty $10,235.00! Who knows how, but they paid. I was still pretty embarrassed, but thankful that they paid in full. It took work to get them to pay, they really took advantage of the fact Betty is a sweet heart! I was kind of torn because Sally and Manny are really good friends of ours, but so is Betty!

Well to make a long story short, I became distant, but in contact with Sally and Betty agreed to let them stay in the house. Fast-forward to today... I guess old habits really do die hard, because they have not paid since they made the full payment of the money they owed, it's been 3 months!!!! I guess now they will be evicted and what makes me worry is they have a baby!!!

Hello World!

Hello world wide web! I am Grace!

I have been a long time blog reader, but never actually had a blog, this is very exciting for me. I guess I should start by dusting off the welcome mat and introducing myself to you…. the reader…. that is if there is anyone out there…I already said my name so… what can I tell you about me that is worthy of your time? Well for starters, I may blog about things that will leave you feeling awkward and uncomfortable. I have the tendency to reveal waaay too much about myself and those around me.

I am 20- something, 25 somethings to be exact. I have left the nest and now freeload off my boyfriend, B, he is 6′4, soft spoken and a big bundle of mush when he is around me. We are best friends and get to have sex, it's great! I make crap so B pays more of the rent, while I pay the utilities and we share the food costs.I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up, so I have had millions of crappy jobs. I currently work at an out-patient clinic. I hate it, I am so over the people that come in, the people that call in, and anyone that has anything to do with work....but it is my job and I do it well. I put on a smile no matter how much it hurts me and I do what is asked (and more) to get through the day. It's not a career it's a pay check!

I am the oldest of three; my two younger siblings are the apples of my eye. I do not have children, but that age gap makes me feel very motherly to them. My brother is 8 and my mini me, my little sister is 6. I have a big family and so does B, we try to spend as much time with each of our sides as possible, but it’s hard. So our weekends are busy… or we hide in the apartment and drink cheap 7-11 wine, watch movies, eat like college students and lie to everyone that looks for us.

Ohhhh I must also warn you that I have a potty mouth. I mean the worst! I could make a 48 year old, ex-con, truck driver blush. I have been told all my life that I need to stop, but I can’t! I will try to tone it down a little for this site and maybe it will carry on to my everyday life. That would fucken rock! :)
