How Are You Feeling?

Very angry.  There is a short in the car's electrical system.  Wires started smoking.  Seems that after disconnecting the battery for a while then reconnecting it, some systems are working again but the car won't crank.  Looks like the car is dead.  We found some wires burnt enough to completely melt the insulation off of them in several places.  As it stands, the car is not drivable.

Feels like my legs are about to fall off and the pain in my feet feels like I've been walking on the pointed end of thumb tacks.  Yep, feels like I overdid it, but the cleanup was well received. :biggrin:

Interestingly, after all that work I did yesterday, with the exception of my calves, the rest of my body is fine.  However, it feel like I've reawaken cafe muscles that I haven't used since my Track and Field days. 😏

I wish my mama had told me that having feelings for someone will make you crazy! I should warn my daughter probably but I think she may have got it recently too. Damn it. I wish I could protect her from that. I don't want a boy breaking her heart and making her feel all fucked up inside.

You wouldn't have listened.  I wouldn't either.  As kids we think we already know everything and that our parents just don't get it.  All we can do is be there if it happens and do our best to comfort and remind our kids that sometimes it just happens.  They didn't do anything wrong and to help them to not let it turn them cold.

So true, but I just want to shield them both from any pain and I know I can't and it's a shitty feeling.

Even though I don't have any kids of my own, I do understand.  I get like that with friends because of things I have been through.  I see them going through something similar and I try to let them know to keep their eyes open and to pay attention.  So they can spot the warning signs and be proactive in dealing with them.

I feel bad that I always seem to be fussing about something.  I understand that everyone has things that keep them busy, but I sometimes feel that it shouldn't be so hard to keep up with the few things I ask since I only request a portion of the whole process.  I handle everything else that goes into taking care of rest of the stuff.  But I suppose it's expected when they don't truly know what goes into taking care of all that goes into running all of these areas.  It makes me feel like I'm being the difficult one. :unsure:

Hun, don't let the brats overrun your brain.  If they sense weakness, they will turn on you.  Trust me, I know.

..I'm not sure what I feel:wacko::question:

Although her response to my comment was a bit off, do you remember when I told you guys that what you did to her left a very lasting impression...it really did.  That's why I get upset at the way you all seem to conveniently forget the things that didn't make you feel happy, but seem to have no problem unleashing on everyone else when y'all are having a hard or bad time.  This is why I stated that I hated the fact that I always seem to be fussing every time I say to do something, but you all chose to do what you see fit to.  It just makes us feel like we are only there to feed you, keep a roof over your heads and be cannon fodder for y'all attitudes of displeasure.  (Look it up if you don't know what cannon fodder means)

 

You guys exploited every weakness you could find at that time...not that you do it now, but the scars have left their mark and I feel bad about that because I'm the reason everyone was put into these situations.  Unfortunately, I can't change any of that, but what I can do is to try to help guide you all into becoming better people.  And even that feels like a struggle because it sometimes feels you guys forget we have feelings too.

 

Yes, we are the adults, but we are still human beings and we can see that we do not make the same impact in your lives as your "friends" do, so it is easy to dislike the things we say and approve of the things they say.  I told you all before, people do not like being told what to do, so when they believe they share the same emotional mindset as others they feel are in the same boat, people tend to cling to those individuals for better or worse and usually the first people to suffer are family.

 

I just didn't want us to be the same as the majority of everyone else out there, but it seems inevitable.  Yes, y'all are good kids, but everyone gets to see the outcome of all the time and effort we have put into your guidance, they don't get to see the "behind the scenes".

Yep, feeling like a dunderhead again.  Had the fan on the wrong setting and practically fried myself.  Unfortunately, this miscalculation triggered my ear lesions and now they are flaring up again.  Time for preventative medicine...cayenne pepper.

:biggrin:

    • About to get this day started.  Yesterday, my vehicle was towed to our neighborhood service center and was started on.  I also took care of multiple appointments and errands.  Now I'm about to verify orders and then start on yardwork detailing.

    • I’m feeling the temptation to get dressed and go out to the store to get some dessert.  I’m also feeling restraint because I’m not going to do that, even though I physically feel the temptation.
    • I had two dreams last night. The first was about a man in a director-level importance coming and going from his office. He had trouble with his feet, and it was painful for him to walk. He wore large, warm boots similar to mukluks but comically large. He shuffled while wearing them. When it came time for an important meeting, he switched to a different, more normal boots and walked normally despite being in pain. Then he returned to the large boots. I was watching him from a mall bench outside his office the entire time. The second was about me and my coworker sitting in a room similar to a large, tiered lecture hall. Our boss would bring us comically tall stacks of paper and told us to sort it. The papers were large packets of information on various things, and most of it was basically meaningless. We pointed this out, and my boss shrugged and said "I know" and gave a sympathetic half-smile. There was no way to sort it in a way that mattered. Eating strong cheese before bed is a fun experience. I highly recommend experiencing cheese dreams at least once in your life.
    • It's Tuesday and I'm thinking it's time to get things done.  I just decided to start all over again from scratch. 1. Handle Truck Situation 2. Handle Appointment 3. Handle Yardwork 4. Prepare for Wednesday
