Poor Unfitney

Sometimes, when no one else is looking, I LOVE To check out all the celeb gossip rags online. Truth be told, I have been sort of mesmerized by the whole Brit Brit saga as it has unfolded. While I was never a fan of hers, her story has just been....well....enthralling.
Now, however, the whole thing is starting to piss me off a bit. I really feel for the girl. She needs some serious help. If she has a mental disorder, which I believe she could, then the girl needs to get help before she ends up like many other celebs who couldn't take the life given to them.
What is really pissing me off, though, would be the people around her. Come on. We, the viewing public, all saw this coming. We have been watching it for months. We knew (I did, didn't you?) that she was spiraling out of control. So, why didn't anyone around her take charge and take care of her? She is more of an asset to them than a loved one. I think Lynn Spears, and the whole clan surrounding her need to be cut off completely. Now, don't get me wrong, you have to want help to be able to get it, but maybe if it hadn't been allowed to get so far out of control, they might have been able to talk her into getting help if they had got an early jump on it. I also remember that she pretended to go to rehab twice. Maybe that was even too late. I mean, there had to be signs that we couldn't recognize, perhaps when she got married in Vegas, that her family would have instantly recognized as being troubled. I really hope that she gets help, whatever that help is. If she needs meds, therapy, rehab, what ever it may be, I hope she is able to get it, and use it in time. I feel for those kids and wish them all the best of luck right now. They need it, and so does mommy.

No....No..No...

So, my landlord came by today with the real estate agent to assess the house. Within the first 2 minutes of being in the house, they ask about getting us out early. It is called a lease, people. Get is straight. We are here until June 30. No sooner, unless you want to seriously pay for it. We are not going to just roll over and spend a wad of cash moving, for what may only be for 3 months. AS it stands, we should be moving out of state after our lease is up for Chad (husband)'s job. So, if I move for you in March like you suggested, I would only be moving for 3 and then I would have to pick up and move again.
Not only that, but the renter's market is fierce right now. The influx of people who are losing their homes from that nasty market, along with the fires have really upped the renters side of real estate. So, the amount of trouble and money that we would be out to move now would just be insane and unreasonable.
I just don't understand that mind set. What would make people think that we would be willing to move on a whim like that? Do they think we won't mind to uproot our entire lives for them because they suggest it to us? Let alone the money we would be out.
It isn't happening like that. Don't get me wrong, I do have my price. Not sure what that is just now, but I know it is out there. I would be willing to move a few months ahead of schedule out of state for that right price, once I figure that out. Though, I doubt anyone would be willing to pay it up. So, no money, no move. Get it. Good.

Rollercoaster Day

Today has felt like a roller coaster ride with all the ups, downs, twists, and turns.

First, this morning, my property mgmt company called to tell us that the owner is putting our house on the market almost immediately. There is a real estate agent coming over to evaluate the house on Wednesday. We have a lease, but he says he can't wait. So, we can stay here until our lease is up, but we know we will have to move for sure now. I had hoped to stay here pretty much until we left San Diego, but...that may not happen now. We have lived here for 2.5 years. That is the longest I have lived in any one place for the last 7.5 years. We have had 7 different homes in that time. Really. So, living in one for so long has definitely made us attached. It is a little bit sad.

My girls have both been sick, but are finally getting better. It is such a relief to see them eating normally, and having a pretty good time. The youngest has been suffering the ill effects of teething. Well, her 7th tooth finally broke through! The poor thing has gotten 5 teeth in the last 4 weeks. They are all coming in at once. I hope she gets a little break in between now. It would be great for everyone!!

My little sister just called me to tell me that her boyfriend surprised her with a marriage proposal tonight. They had already decided to get married, but she had no idea he was going to propose today. He did a great job with the ring, and the proposal. So, I am excited for her. She found a really great partner for life.
However, I am also sort of sad. I feel super old. I feel like I need to go get out all of my wrinkle creams and potions and start slathering them on. She is the baby of the family, and has always said she wasn't getting married for a long time, basically until she was old. So, having her get engaged at the ripe old age old 23 is a huge shocker. Yikes. It is also the end of anyone of us being a kid. Makes me think about my own kids growing up too. **sniff, sniff**
I am happy for her, though. And she promised to pick a wedding date that would accommodate my travel schedule. That means no where near November. Yeah!

Now, I need to finish the laundry that I started at 8am before I can get to bed. Hopefully I will be done before the little one wakes up and demands milk. It would be nice to actually get to bed and lay there for a while before being summoned. Who knows...maybe I can actually wake my husband up and get a kiss too. Maybe more if I am lucky.

Starting A New

I decided once again to try and blog. I have given up every other time I have tried, but it is something that I feel once again I want to try. So....here goes.
Oh! And before I start..be fully prepared for incorrect grammar and spelling no matter how many checking tools are provided.
