Midnight ...

and this time I am not sleeping. I'm tired. It was a long day. But after laying in bed for two hours without falling asleep I feel compelled to come here. I don't know why ... guess there isn't anywhere else to go at this moment. Hoping the screen will tire my eyes and take me to slumberland ... maybe ... soon. Morning comes sooooo early!

It was ...

the battery! THANK GOODNESS!
I don't have time to go into detail, but I will say, the day did not, in any way, go smooth.
Why would it? It's the last day of summer holidays afterall!
I really could go on ranting but quite frankly ... I'm beat ... 'night, night!

Car and Clinic Trouble

So ... I spent $90 having the interior of my car cleaned (I actually saved $50 from the estimate ... I figured since it was raining like a banshee, I didn't need to have the exterior done). I can tell you the car is clean ... it smells clean and it looks clean and all would be great except they broke the area that was once a CD place holder ... it is now a gaping hole. He asks what do I think?
Well, like an idiot, I say I'll see if someone can fix it. I figured at least he would take a few bucks off ... NOPE!!! He did say to let him know 'what happens'. That was before this morning ... when the friggin car wouldn't even bloody well start!!! I think, I hope, I pray it is just the battery! This vehicle HAS to get me through 2 more years ... fingers crossed! As far as the gaping hole ... it's not a priority at the moment!

And ... I go to the clinic for Cadence's rash. We finally get called in ... and then we wait, and we wait, and we wait. Maybe you shouldn't call us into the office before your about to enjoy LUNCH!!! I don't begrudge you nourishing your body ... you put in a long day, you deal with sick, cranky people all day ... you need to eat! BUT, we were happy in the big room with the space and the tv and the magazines! We would have enjoyed that extra 20 minutes in there as opposed to your 4X5 room with nothing to do but stare at your one painting. And for an almost 3 year old ... YIKES! !!

A New Place That's Mostly About Me

I realized that sometimes I deviate from the real purpose and intention of my main blog: Cadence.
There may come a day when she visits it herself and learns her own history ... she doesn't need to read about her mother's rants and raves now does she? So ... I've created this place where I can 'reflect' when I need to. I think it may be fairly therapeutic.
I should warn you, the language may get colourful at times and I'm almost wondering if I should limit it's access. We'll see how it goes ...
