I hate being the bigger person...

This is just a short whine because I have finals this week, I am getting one son enrolled in college, one son is getting his license and the other two make me want to kill them. I am simply exhausted and need to whine.

My wonderful husband was kind enough to take SS16 to the orthodontist for me yesterday (I usually do it and don't mind-it's our time together) because I had to be in surgery all day and them take SS17 to his college workshop for enrollment. He calls me up and says, "I know your on a diet, but SS16 wanted me to buy you a tin of cookies for mothers day, so act like you want them. Aww SS16 is so sweet. Then he says,"he then asked me if we could get him one for his BM". I said "hey, no problem, do me a favor and pick me up one to get my mom too." This is all in the midst of the orthodontist asking us why SHE hasn't paid the rest of the bill yet. I said, "give them HER number and they can ask HER!!!"

What I realy wanted to say was, "that stupid bit&& has a F-ing husband now, why the fudge can't he do this sh** for her? The kids always ask us to get her b-day, x-mas and mothers day gifts. I always act like it's so nice of them and like I would just LOVE to help them pick something out. Really-I want her to fall off the planet-she doesn't have to die, just fall off the planet! Apparently her husband is as much of a dumptruck as she is or the kids hate him soooo much (as they have expressed) that they just won't ask him. The only joy I find in this tedious process is that most of the time I just go get the gift and know in my heart if she knew I was buying her the crap-she would be just as annoyed as I am.

Ok, I feel bettr, I am over it. I need to go study for finals now. I have had a long enough break.

Ok...now i need to behave...but that is the most gratifying way to deal with this situation i've heard of yet. even if i only imagine sending her those deers that light up on your lawn...it'll make me smile and shhhh
the kids dont really need to know what i am thinking right?
