This is an awful weekend. I am so overwhelmed. I worked from 7:45am Friday until 12:15am Saturday, then went back in at 9:00 Saturday morning. I was in corporate meetings Mon, Tues & Wed and it put me so far behind.
I have mountains of laundry and tons of paperwork for this apartment building. I hate managing this damn apartment building, but I can't give it up & move because I don't want to let Chuck down. I told him I would take care of it while he was gone, but I'm so tired. The woman who owns the building is 85 years old and mean, mean, mean. She talks to me like I'm a damn dog! I would never take that from anyone else, but I can't just tell her to go to hell, as much as I would like to. Chuck would give me a big sigh & say, "it's ok Babe" and I would feel guilty for the rest of my life.
I realize that we don't pay rent or utilities & that it saves us a lot of money, but to me it isn't worth it. I would love to be able to come home from work & do things I'd like to do, or clean my own damn apartment, rather than dealing with a bunch of leaking pipes, broken toilets, jacked up furnaces & air conditioners & stupid crap. Last week, someone put the garden hose on through one of the main doors of the building, turned it on & flooded the first floor on one side of the building. Just some bored little vandals. So I got to deal with carpet cleaners, the cops, the insurance company & pissy residents because they thought the drying equipment that had to be used to dry out the walls (which soaked up the water like big sponges) was "too loud".
My staff at work hates me. Not that I really care. I'm seriously thinking of firing the worst of the three. Her shitty attitude is infecting the whole department. She seems to think I'm being unreasonable for expecting her to take her nose out of her wedding plans & do her job once in a while!
Ok, I'm done venting now.
On the up side. My hubby, Chuck will be home in about a week!! He gets to stay two weeks. I'm excited & nervous too. I haven't seen him in over 8 months.

All the peripheral stuff doesn't mean anything really. You are a strong lady and it will work itself out.
People are stupid and whiny, hell I am at times.
Feel better? Sometimes it helps just to say it out loud to someone.
Have you got the outfit picked out that you are going to meet him in?
