I need a cup of cheer
Work is better than last year at this time as far as the hours...not sure if I'll have any after this week though? I got the rest of my Christmas shopping completed today & found my friend two Anna Lee felt figurines at a consignment shop for 1/2 off. One is a snowman, & the other one a cute mouse, both for $7. I picked her up a couple other little things, & she was very happy. We got together earlier so I could get her house key to watch her cat while she's away, & she got me a $50 gift card, & a cute Kokeshi Doll ornament too...I was in shock! It was a really nice, but short visit. Before that, was what really upset me slightly (why though?), & gave me a headache. A girl I know friend requested me two days ago on FB, & she's friend's with a handful of other people on my list. She has hundreds of friends & her husband is in a band etc. I accepted her request, & I sent her a little message commenting about how her & I met in high school through a girl I've lost contact with, & how it was nice running into her where I worked at my last job, & I wished her & her family a happy holiday, etc. (Completely nice) Basically, when I got home from Target & checked my Scrabble game, I realized my friend list was down one, & it was the new girl, PLUS she blocked me???? I do not get it at all? What was the point to "friend" me? It did say on her page for a description of herself, that she is a total "wack job". I'm going to have to believe it's true. One thing about FB I've encountered often, is people NOT responding back to a question or message to be friendly. The last girl I just friended I sent a message & said I'd love to hear back, but I know it's the holidays, so whenever she gets a chance, that would be nice. I'm just going to use FB for Scrabble mostly, & avoid the drama....it's like high school. There's no point trying to be friendly with someone that really wouldn't have given you the time of day back then. I'd rather keep to myself & select few that do care. Also, the trich is still pretty bad. I ordered a hypnosis cd specifically for the issue....We'll see if it works. You're supposed to listen to it for a month straight before you go to sleep. I will have to say the woman I did see three times had helped a lot with other things, & I'm still listening to those cd's. It's just miserable dealing with difficult people, no money, depression, & snowy cold Wisconsin weather. I was in bed two days last week after the first big snow storm, because my arms hurt so bad after. I even work out 3 x's/wk., & that didn't prepare me for the major shoveling. Tonight, & thru tomorrow it will be snowing a lot more. My Mom has to drive to Milwaukee (2 hrs. away) to get her friend from Florida....I'm kind of worried. I suppose, I'm going to wrap a few more gifts & get some sleep.
