Magazines

It's funny how magazines always use the same selling topics over and over and all at the same time. Every time you read a cover it's what's sexy this, weight that and skin stuff like get rid of blackheads in like hot pink or something. I haven't really looked at one in forever because the advertising has swollowed up a good portion of anything remotely interesting. The whole thing can consist of one good long article and few tips with the rest being ads. I do like the fashion and make up tips that they give but I never seem to be able to put it to use anyway. LOL

Passive Income

DH always kicks himself for not investing any money that we've had into something that can generate some money for us. Of course his ideas were always kind of wonky so I'm not sure how gung-ho I'd be anyway but I see his point. It would be really nice to have money to invest into something. My brother in law makes a good amount so he's decided to start buying properties. He's decided that he wants to have a bunch of them in vacationing areas so that he can always use them for himself if they aren't occupied. His target right now is Outer banks short sales to keep the process short. Man I wish I never put myself into a hole so I could do this stuff too.

NESCAFE Freebies

This is pretty cool if you're a coffee lover. I love to get free stuff in the mail, it's almost like Christmas. LOL This one is neat because you get a sample variety pack of five flavors. This is not an ad, I like to share free stuff. I know what'll be in my mail box soon!

In the Nut House

I'm getting really tired of dealing with the people in this house. I feel like it's a never ending battle of the crazies. My mom and step dad drive me absolutely crazy and if you knew them you'd know why. It's so irritating dealing with all their lies, excuses and crap that it's taking a toll on me. Then there's my family each with their hormones raging. I feel like I'm the only sane one here and I just about lose it all the time. I always find myself wishing for something normal but I guess that's questionable too huh? I doubt there really is anything normal anyway but there's got to be something better than this right?

Mid-life

Me and all my friends are at the age where we are finally considered old enough to start wanting to use an anti aging product and I think it's pretty funny how many of them already have years ago. So many of them are talking about slathering the stuff on and the funny part is that these are all the ones that never seemed to age to begin with! They're the ones that everyone envies because they all look just like they did in high school or better. Of course for some of them it's all make up and body slimmers and you can see how fake they really look in person but in pictures they always look really great. Funny because I always look like crap in pictures.

What Won't She Eat?!

No-No is the scariest kid I've ever seen. She will eat anything and it's so bad that you'd think she didn't have any taste buds at all. Not long ago she was crazy enough to get into my mom's stuff and she actually ate her best night cream! This stuff was super perfumed and I can't believe she actually ate it. Thank goodness there was hardly anything in there and yeah, I was super pissed that my mom leaves this stuff around like it's nothing. That's another story though. LOL I feel like this kid is a total garbage disposer and there's no way to stop her. She doesn't listen and thinks it's funny to sneak around and do what you just said not to. I have no idea what we're going to do with her!

Disfunctional

Dh is finally accepting that there's something wrong with him. This is awesome considering all these years of denial that he's been going through. He still has manic episodes incredibly often but at least now he knows what's happening when it does. We're hoping to finally be able to get him on meds but it's going to take forever since we're going to have to deal with "the system" and it's not fun at all. We've already had problems with trying to get him covered in this program and I'm going to have to call again and raise hell to get something to happen. I am not looking forward to this at all. If everything finally goes through the next thing is to hopefully get him on disability since he can't hold a job to save his life but that's pretty much the same story. Years ago when he was injured we almost had to go through with a disability appeal because they were trying to mess with him. All of this stuff is such a mess and I wish no one had to deal with this kind of stuff. I'm already exhausted just talking about it!

Stormy Weather

I am SO tired of rain! Sure it's cool when there's lightning or thunder but it's been raining for at least a week and we've been stuck inside. We all have cabin fever and everybody's starting to snap at eachother. No-No is constantly cranky and screaming and Yes-Yes is tired of her always having to be around him like a plague. They both are driving me nuts with their changes and I really could use a vacation. I really hope this rain stops soon so we can start being semi-normal people again. LOL
