I'm happily married to Mr. Man. We have 2 daughters, Big R and Little R. I'm a stay at home mom. We moved from the big city to the country, living a dream. I'm a collector and a packrat. I'd rather read a book than watch a movie. I battle depression. I love life, but that wasn't always the case. This is my journal.

The First Yard Sale

We continue to have serious problems with Little R. She has become a different person. I just don't know how to deal with her any more. I don't know what's happened to her. Our life continues to be hell. And Little R and her antics are not helping. Each day she is a different person. Oh I remember being 14, it's a terrible age. But Little R has gone above and beyond being a brat.

We are supposed to go to an out of town party tonight. I can't decide if I want to go or not. I have a ton of laundry to do and I need a haircut. It looks like Mr. Man is going with or without me. If it wasn't so far away it wouldn't be an issue. I don't want to leave Little R overnight. Why do I always leave things to the last minute? I don't know, but it's true, I do. I can't even find the clothes I would want to wear. Being a biker bash I need certain clothes. I don't know where any of it is. This house is in such chaos. I have a feeling I'd have to do two tons of laundry to find my clothes. And my hair! My gawd, there's no way I could go to a party with this hair. I need it cut badly but am terrified to go back to any of the chain places to have it cut. I need bangs, I have no bangs, just a big forehead. They really did a number on it when I went to have it cut to donate. I'm sure it can be fixed by the right person. But could I find the right person today? I can try I suppose.

There is one pair of jeans I want to wear. I wore them the last time I went out to a bar with SW. There is just no telling where those jeans are right now. I have piles of clothes in the bedroom. Some dirty laundry, some that I received from Freecycle and haven't put away yet and piles of clean laundry to put away. Then there's tons of dirty laundry in the basement waiting to be cleaned. I don't even know where to begin looking for this pair of jeans. I am so unorganized, it drives me crazy. Any other party and I could wear any other clothes. I've known about it for weeks. So why do I wait til the day of before I start worrying about my hair and what to wear?

Well nice surprise! As I started putting away the clean clothes, I found the jeans I want. Now it seems I'll be getting my hair cut on the way there. That I don't like. I'd like to be able to come home and fool around with it first.

Mr. Man just took me out for a coffee and we stopped at a yard sale. The first one of the season. I got an original Nintendo system, all I wanted was the controllers, for $10, a little steep, but some of my favourite games are the originals. We have 2 systems already but no controllers that work. Yippee! I also got a platter and serving bowl that match my Christmas dishes, for a buck. Then I saw a pair of brand new sandals and I tried them on and she said I could have them for free. Gotta love that. I love yard sales!

Well I better get going. I have plenty to do to prepare for this party tonight. Have a great day and a wonderful weekend.
