Happy Moonday!
And a Happy Day it is!
My son got his learner’s permit!
I’m thrilled, he isn’t.
I am surprised that he only has to practice for 14 hours, 3 at night. He does have to take drivers ed again, so he’ll get more than 14.
We got there before the MVA opened, we got in and out before 9.
I just found out! He doesn’t have to go to driving school because he already went and the certificate is on file.
Which btw FCM, I don’t know about the one down your way, but up here you need an appointment for everything. You might want to check before going.
Yesterday was a pretty nice day, if a bit confusing.
NIece1 hubby said she moved out, so I thought since she is at my mother’s house all the time, that is where she is staying. But she loaded some furniture in her suv, so, I don’t know where she is staying.
Niece1 filled me in on some more estate stuff. Nobody knows what is going on with the one account. They won’t tell anybody anything. My nieces think there is no beneficiary, but I can’t believe my mother would do that. I think the Trust may be the beneficiary. The company says they sent out paperwork but nobody has gotten anything. Unless she left it to a charity, but I find that hard to believe too. I could see her leaving a small amount to a charity, but not that much money.
Niece2 looks bad. It’s bad enough to be grieving, but my sister is playing games. First, she is buying the house and my niece can stay, then she isn’t buying the house and my niece has to move, then she is buying the house and my niece can stay but only under certain conditions, then she isn’t buying the house and my niece has to move.
The same kind of shit my mother pulled. One time my sister needed to borrow some money and mom said she’d lend it to her. She wouldn’t give my sister the money right away, but every time my sister asked, my mother would say it’s not due yet but I’ll lend you the money.
Then at the last minute, my mother said okay, I have the money for you, but if you want it you have to do x, y, and z for me.
Always with the bullshit, both of them.
Niece2 told me she is working with my sister to make my sister a better person.
Good luck to that.
I’m afraid sloth has become a way of life for me. However, I have too much to do and am getting more and more behind. I need another week’s vacation, I think.
I’m not sure Cerby/Turbo is a sure thing yet. I should know something today.
We got the dogs off to daycare this morning. Ripple will not get out of the truck for my son, but once I get him out, he will trot off happily with my son. He is being weird.
Barky and Humpy went today, and since there were so few there, they went on the small side with the others. I heard it wasn’t bad, no barking and no humping.
As far as gentleman callers
A friend of mine (several years ago) was saying to me that she thought her bf was just using her for sex. I didnt say this part out loud, but I thought Girl, you are 55 years old, you look good for 55, but if a man us looking for sex, he’s going to be looking for a 35. I said out loud, I think any man who just fixed your leaky pipes, fixed your stuck door, and cooks dinner for you on the weekends isn’t using you for sex.
Really I thought get over your fool self, you’re not all that.
I think the idea of being used for sex is a weird one anyway after a certain age. If you are enjoying it, then what’s the problem? If you’re not enjoying it, they why are you seeing him?
Life is too short for bad sex.
I was telling another friend about this (not gossiping because those two friends will never meet) and she was as baffled as I was at the idea.
The one I was telling though is a bit… innocent I guess. She married the second man she ever dated, and she only went out with the first guy a few times. In her mind, you meet somebody you like, you go out for a bit, like turns to love, you get married, have children, buy a house, and life is good. No conflict, no games, no bullshit, it’s easy.
She’s a widow now.
So I was saying to her, it’s not like the guy is screwing her and leaving, then you know you are being used for sex.
She says wait, wait wait wait, you mean I could have a man come over, and we could have sex, and he would leave afterwards. I said yes, some men will do that.
She says, so we can have sex, and he will leave, right? I said yes.
She says, so he’s not going to hog the remote, I don’t have to share the blanket, I don’t have to cook him breakfast, or ever do his laundry.
I said Nope.
She said, and women complain about this? I don’t see the problem. Sounds like a good arrangement.
I said yeah, if you’re looking for that kind of thing. Of course if they leave some money on the nightstand, that is a whole other kind of arrangement.
I could get paid! I wonder how long before I could get a new roof.
I said at our age we aren’t worried about being used for sex, we’re hoping to be used for sex.
Oo, can’t forget to set out water bowls for the four-footed contingent.
, not that you would or should sell them.
