Had an interesting moment on Wednesday night. Linda picked me up for church, and of course, she already had this friend of hers, Suzanne, with her. Suzanne isn't working all that much now, so she takes every opportunity to be up Linda's butt, so that she can take advantage of as much free stuff and free food as she can get off of her. She has been doing this for YEARS and Linda just lets her do it. I have no doubt that Suzanne does care about her to some extent, but I also believe the "what can I get out of this?" mentality is always there to a HUGE degree.
Ironically enough, Suzanne gets a phone call while we are on our way to church from her nephew in which he tells her that he and his wife just received a 100 dollar gift card for christmas. Suzanne has a FIT! She starts off on this big tirade about how ungrateful her nephew and his wife are, how they have been living with her family for almost a year now, how they don't do anything, how they are users etc. Do you get the irony? This is a woman who constantly has her hand out, tries to get everything she can get and has the NERVE to bitch about someone ELSE doing it? What she was REALLY mad about was that SHE wasn't going to get anything from the gift card lol.
Okay, one negative story, and one positive here. I have been writing like a fiend for the last few days. I am doing so well, and I am so proud. I just hope I can keep doing it. Doesn't have to last forever, just long enough so that I can finish this book I am working on lol.
I also did well on cleaning this week. I got behind because my daughter's best friend, Tori came over and stayed for about three days. Nothing wrong with that-she is a great kid. Her and Katie stay in her room most of the time though, and I can't clean in there. Well, I pretty much caught up. I worked my butt off yesterday. Can hardly walk today, but it's worth it lol.
