Our wings are not tired.

Boo Hiss! No hot tub is a disappointment for sure.

I hope things quiet down and you have a peaceful weekend, Sheryl.

OK, well, that vent up there was actually very helpful! Thanks for putting up with it.

Totally stopped giving a shit and we're having a lovely time, and it's beautiful.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to WAR after my last VRBO booking went sideways, and at the end of the day told them I'd rather have my negative review posted then a couple of hundred dollars off.... and now I see my review isn't there! Oh well.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm glad that venting made you feel better. Have a beautiful time, Jen.

I feel bait and switched. And annoyed that they haven't immediately offered a partial refund.
Honestly, we would have picked a place with a working hot tub, had we known.

That said, I'd have demanded some level of compensation and would leave a review that was not flattering. Because tubs are important to me.

I'm annoyed that the Nascar trucks won't let me listen to the scanners. I think they are just down for streaming but I only watch this series because I like one of the spotters. I am going to leave them a review that is not flattering. Because Eddie D'Hondt telling drivers, "quartah, qauatah, door, clearah" is very soothing to me.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

vent

just need to vent somewhere, this is safest place

My best friend from college, beat leukemia in 20s, living with colon cancer now metastasized various places for over a decade, taking a turn for the worst. Tumors blocking intestines, in hospital supplementing nutrition to get her strong enough for surgery to put in bypasses. No real plan for treatment because she is off all charts for her cancer. There are no options that are known to work and no examples of patients still living with what she has. Her son in 16.

My son. Incommunicado. For over a week. Phone goes straight to voice mail and voice mail is full. Texts, no response. Including the one that said I was in hospital after hitting my head. Bank account showing largish deposits from cash app and then immediate withdrawls from atms. Today should have been a paycheck. No paycheck. Rent due on Monday and he has less than $100 in account. I've texted the one high school friend of his I have a phone # for and I reached out to another via IG. Bank activity shows me he is not dead, but WTEVERLOVINGGODDAMNF

vent over

I was working until 9 (comp time) so I am going to bed. no need for sympathetic words, or pats. I just need to dump that somewhere.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, msbelle. That is all a lot.


JenP - Jul 29, 2022 10:51:20 pm PDT #16571 of 30000

Oh, man, msbelle. Wishing your friend all kinds of good intervention outcome. And, of course, a mac check-in and more.

I'm sorry, msbelle. That is a whole lot.
