growl

i just feel like growling. in a walt kowlaski/gran torino sort of way. it's just been a tough week.

my auntie eva passed away and due to a complete oversight on my part, i was unable to attend the funeral events as i never ordered a birth certificate for tegan. i need to send a card. i feel just awful.

my sister had to put her dog, sasha, down due to a sudden serious seizure disorder. sasha was a six year old rottweiler- a very quirky dog, known by many names- sashabeans, stinky, you name it. sasha was more gentle than my cats. though from a fancy bloodline, sasha had a strong resemblance to the weird hyena on the lion king. any loud noise, such as a ferocious belch, and sasha would be shaking under the couch. pray for them. they have lost their friend.

two of my neighbors homes are listed at less than 99k. i don't know if there is an end in sight.

more friends are losing jobs.

i just found out that my daughter -just shy of 5 years- is only 1.5 inches shorter than i was at just over 7 years old.

i'm so tired of adults not acting like adults.

i'm so annoyed with laundry.

my kids have been wound up and after todays snow day, we're left with even more atrocious behavior and two-dozen cupcakes.

i'm so overwhelmed right now. somebody, please, throw me a fricking bone.
