I know I could go right on ahead and go through each one of my frustrations in painstaking detail, which is what I actually started doing to when I began typing up this post. This is my blog after all. What better place, right?
I will mention (briefly) that Evie is in the hospital after almost a week of debilitating pain. She would have gone in sooner but she's stubborn and hates taking medication, so she insisted on trying to handle it her own way. She finally asked us to take her when she couldn't handle the pain anymore. Her pain's not as bad now but it turns out she has an alarmingly large kidney stone that needs to be removed.
But as for the rest of things currently bothering me, yeah, I typed those up too. Then I stopped, I looked the post over and then I held down the backspace key until all that was left was that first paragraph.
Truth is, I'm tired of letting all those issues weigh me down and I don't want to bore you with them either. Instead, I think I'll just pick myself up and soldier on like always do. Sulking is tiring and very non-productive anyway. I'll focus on the things that make me happy for a change.
With that being said, we'll return to our regularly scheduled foolishness here on AVCI.

Next week.
Sending our best to you and your family. Sounds a lot like what we've been dealing with this year. Hope things improve for the holidays, and that Grandma Evie feels better soon! <3

Thanks. As years go, it's true, I've had better. If the Mayans are wrong and we make it to next year, maybe 2013 will be better.
DeleteSorry for the roughness, Dude. I had a couple days this month where I was rooting for the Mayans myself. Hang in there.
ReplyDeleteI'm not giving up. I'm too sure there are better days to come out of all this.
DeleteHope things get better soon. I get hit with those periods every now and then. Luckily, they are never permanent. They pass. Hang in there.
ReplyDeleteKnowing all this won't last forever is the one thing that gets me through it sometimes. Still, the sooner the better, though.
DeleteSorry to hear things are sucking right now. Life is the undisputed, undefeated champion of the world and it will knock you down often. All that you can do when you're laying on the mat is: look up, get up and not give up. Things will get better. You have to believe it and make it so. Good luck, man!
ReplyDeleteWhen I do get off this mat I may resort to some low blows when life comes at me again.
DeleteSorry, Vinny. Really hope things improve soon.

Love that quote. Just wish I'd brought along a cold beverage.
DeleteFocus on the happy is right. Focus on your education too because that always brings rewarding change. And when you can't focus, drink scotch.
ReplyDeleteYes! Scotch will do nicely. It makes sense since I'm already not focused anyway. I might as well enjoy the experience.
