Ghoulie work it out, take it off, write it down challenge! (Page 8)

Good morning Ghoulies!

It's been a couple of late nights for me. Friday night I stayed up until a little after 11:00, that's when my son and his friend came up from the basement and said they were heading to bed. I'm really glad they didn't take me up on their pass to stay up until midnight. My daughter got me up at 6:00 yesterday morning. Ugh.

Last night we had a game night, the kids play like maniacs in the basement, and the adults play cards or whatever upstairs. We had people here until 10:30 last night. I'm tired. today.

It's raining. I'm tired. I'm not sure if I'll get anything done today other than working on the taxes. Maybe a little bit of yoga.

I am going to get my bag packed so I can grab it and go to the gym tomorrow morning before work. I know tomorrow is only day 1, so I don't have high expectations.

I have games going on with my sister and a friend of mine. I used to kick my sister's butt, then I told her my strategy, now she's kicking mine.

Mine, too.

That just made me laugh. Thinking can wear a girl out!

RAWR!!!

Afternoon Amy! RAWR back at you.

This is a HI and a see ya later all in one. Got my run in. Not as long as I wanted but at least it was something. I gotta get outside to run!

Off to the showers.

FWIW, I am with you on your FB comment. You both (hubbie and you) have a difficult row to hoe. He doesn't get free pass just because he is the one traveling.

OMG, thank you. I was hoping I wasn't over-reacting. There's some history there with my MIL back when hubby and I were dating, and it took years to get to a comfortable point. I so want to tell her to shove a sock in it. I hope I did that nicely enough today that it won't cause problems for years to come.  My feeling on FB is that it's my right to vent, to be supported. Hubby knows what I said, he's fine with it. She needs to find somewhere else to vent her stress from dealing with her own husband being less healthy than he has been. Grrrrr. The whole momma bear thing gets realllly old after 15 plus years. *end rant*

Amy, fwiw I think you are generous to even have *friended* the MIL on FB. 

I am strongly considering taking that back. But I don't want to start a feud. And she's passive aggressive enough that it would be in the back of her mind and influence every interaction we have, and would color her interpretation of everything I do or say for the next 20 years.

Ok, I saw Amy's post, but didn't see the replies.

Amy, I could take her, you've got my number if you need me.

There are several people I have ignored friend requests for because like you FB is my place to speak my mind, THE VILLAGE is, too.   Anyway, people who I thought would be negative, or I knew didn't get me and would reply with unnecessary comments have not been friended. My sister, an aunt, and I had a comment about who we would friend awhile ago. I would not friend my own mother on FB, or most of my relatives for that matter, because they don't get me. That's their problem.

I have a secret for you. You don't answer to her, and you certainly don't have to explain yourself to her. Age and treachery will overcome youth and skill anyday. Don't sink to her level. Post what you want. Say what you feel. And if she continues to be confrontational, then boot her azz. K. Love ya! MWAH!

I haven't friended my parents either, and they're both on FB. Not because we don't get along, but I just don't see the need. It would cause me to have to filter, which I don't want to do. I call them every week, so they know what's going on in my life. That said, I don't really do that much on FB.

I thought you were more than nice about it. Certainly more diplomatic than I might have been. That said, it's always good to have the option to delete. Sometimes I wish I could delete other parts of my life that easily.

A delete button would be a pretty nice feature.

Yeah, wish I could delete some of the pasta I just ate. Portion control button wasn't working. Well, technically there is a way to delete but would rather not go that route. There are some people I wouldn't mind deleting. Again, technically a way but it would probably result in prison and I'm not good with small spaces.

Uh... yeah... none of those seem like viable options. Prison would really cut down on your posting here in THE VILLAGE, and who would care for the fur people?

Good point re the fur people. They're rather picky. I would have more time to post in prison, but I don't know if I'd get BT access. Which raises a question. If prisoners do get internet access, and I believe they do, how many prisoners are on BT? Who do you think they are?
