I hadn't updated in a few days because something happened (financially) that just threw us for a HUGE loop. It was really looking like NO Christmas for our family this year, and I was so depressed. Not that the girls need alot or are even asking for much, but we had really hoped to do our Disney trip.
So, Alex and I got to hounding the people that owed us money, and today I bypassed the JERK-off who had originally "helped" us, and went over his head to the girl he mentioned. He had said it was her fault we didn't get out money yet. So, I called her...she had no idea who I was or what I was talking about. No big surprise there. I explained to her that we had used our savings to get the truck, and this check that we were waiting for was our Christmas money. She was VERY helpful, said she would go to JERK-off's office and find out paperwork and call me back. She called back in 5 minutes, said she found it all and would have our check to us by the end of the week! We're soooooooo relieved!!!!!! So now we can breathe a sigh of relief and know that we're back on track again :)
We went to the Christmas parade last Saturday, and something happened this year that has never happened before. Someone stole one of our spots we marked off. I've NEVER had anyone mess with anything before. These people were so brasen they MOVED our cone and caution tape over, and just parked there (like DUH, did they not think we'd park next to them???). When we got there, some old lady was running OVER the cone to take our last spot! We made her move, and I was SO angry at the dipshits next to us. I thought at first I would have a few choice words for them, then decided I didn't want to ruin the parade for Kaitlynne, so when she wasn't looking, I took a full bottle of coke and a leftover glass of pepsi and dumped them both in their truckbed. Mature? No.... Did I feel better?? Damn skippy, especially when the dipshits DID show up and got ticked cuz they couldn't sit in the bed cuz it was sticky :) Hormones, gotta love em. Scott and Pete didn't show anyway (no big surprise). They went and traded their last car (just got a Durango a month ago, and told us finally they put 4 grand down on it, and payments of 600/month) and got a new truck (2000 down, payments almost800/month!!!!). They pissed me off, tho, cuz they harassed us to take over their car payment. I told them over and over NO, we don't want another payment. They got pissy. They did show up and show us the truck at midnight, tho. I could NOT get over the money part of it. The payments for that, the durango, the house, the utility trailor...no way in HELL would I be happy about all that!! I guess they got mad that I wasn't thrilled for them, cuz when I walked to get the mail today I saw 2 Burger King cups (they had eaten there that night), and a ton of cig butts at the end of the driveway. Whatever...sheesh.... BTW, the parade was not as good this year...I like seeing the Clydesdales and the car clubs...neither this year.
Stayed in my pj's all day yesterday, and have the same planned for today :) Cleaned house yesterday and put up out tree last night (cat's now sleep in the comp room and backporch at night cuz they try to undecorate the tree..lol).
Can't think of much else going on right now. Might update more later if I think of anything :)
