a list of sorts

If I have a list, then things might stay short and sweet.

1.) If Tom doesn't start picking up the mothafucking slack from me now being gone at school all week, I'm gonna have a breakdown. Apparently this fight we got in last night was cuz he was 'hurt' that I was cleaning the bathroom at 7pm. Well sorry buddy, you haven't uh EVER cleaned it, and I was actually motivated (I'm a night person remember?) to do, so I did it. Sorry that meant you had to care for the kids during that time.

2.) My grandma is losing it. I got a note from her in the mail yesterday with a check. I didn't get a birthday card from her, which in itself was very odd, and then this little note didn't say ANYTHING about my birthday in it. It did have phrases like "Please do not under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES (underlined 3 times) mention it to anyone (again underlined 3 times)-family, friends or your husband!! It is meant to be used for neccesities not a movie or toys (only underlined 2 times)." She also enclosed a SASE so I'd be sure to write her?!?! I ALWAYS write thank you notes. ALWAYS. So it's all perplexing. I of course told Tom about it. How the hell could I have used it on neccisities and not told Tom where I got the money? "yeah hon I got this uh outta my ass." It wasn't a huge amount of money, but still......

3.) Tom said he would take Jake to the rest of his soccer mornings if he could go on a bike ride tomorrow and next Sunday. He told me this last Friday. So I told him this morning when he woke me up at the ungodly hour of 730am (I was up til 230am people) that Clara and I were staying home. Then he got all bitchy about saying he would GO but he doesn't want to participate. Whatever fuckhead. Just because you didn't play soccer for 10+ years doesn't mean you can't go spend an hour with your son.

4.) A Jake funny. Tom and Jake went to Walmart on Wednesday and I guess Jake picked out a can of fried apples (really just applepie like filling with cinnamon that you heat on the stove). Tom was telling me about it, I was gonna heat it up after dinner, and Jake came out and said "I love cinnamon apples!! (SUDDEN face crumple and tears start) I love them, I don't want to eat them. I'd miss them. I love them. (full on crying now) I don't want to eat them ever." OMG I was trying so hard not to laugh, and then just scoop him up at the same time. I'm sure I've talked about how sensitive he is, crying over everything, but over a can of apples?!?!

5.) Clara is my pink baby. That's what she calls herself when she's all decked out in her fuzzy, pink carter's footie. Makes me smile everytime.

6.) My brain can't remember anymore information. It's pretty damn full, and I have a shitload to still learn for next week. Anyone have an extra brain I could borrow?

7.) Since I've started school, my whole dieting and exercising has become non-existent. This makes me sad and I'm not sure how to remedy it, since I'm already so pressed for time/energy.

8.) It's not raining. And hopefully it won't start in the next 2 hours, before Jake's soccer is done. My feet are already going to be all muddy and gross, I'd like to stay relatively dry if possible. I wish I could find a pair of my old cleats to wear.

9.) The good thing about my grandma giving me that money is that now we can get our gas turned on. YIPEE!! We haven't frozen yet or anything, but it sure would be nice to be able to have it not as cold in the mornings and at night.

10.) I feel like raking leaves, but just watch, Tom would give me shit because he's just a stupid ass.
