So..
I was hoping to get home for Christmas, but with the loss of the job and all. I won't be making it home.
It's as if, every time I try and plan a trip down home for a bit, something ALWAYS happens to screw up my plans. I lose my job, lose the car, have to spend my money on something that is going wrong with the house. Bah.
And I just got off the phone with my mom to find out, they are only going to come up for a day ... maybe 2.
All because my brother really wants a Christmas in Cape Breton.... I want a freaking Christmas in Cape Breton for a change too yea know. This is going to be the 3rd Christmas I have been with Patrick, and ended up spending it here in Shediac with his family. I understand that he wants to be close to his family for Christmas, but what's my friends and family to him if he is never willing to go down home with me? Yea, as you read, you can see there is a bit more to the story than I have mentioned.
I asked him either last year or the year before about going to Cape Breton for Christmas, and every time he has an excuse made up. "We have to buy winter tires for the car", "we need new wiper and something needs to be fixed on the car", "We won't have enough money after Christmas shopping to go down". Yes, these are some good excuses, but geeze, why is it, every year, we have tonnes of money left over to spend on eating out and getting extra stuff for ourselves after Christmas, but don't have money to go home with? To rent a car for a few days, is pennies. We rented a car for 3 days to go to Campbelton and it cost us 140 bucks. That's not bad when yea think about it, the car was great on gas, and they payed for the full tank of gas. And to fill it back up when we came back to Moncton wasn't much at all. Last time we went down to CB, we had a 2 seater cubed van, and my parents had 1 working car. And if we went over the mileage we payed for it was going to cost us an arm and a leg. Plus, we had 2 dogs with us that we couldn't leave at the house with my parents. Our dogs are like 2 12 year olds with ADD and ADHD and not perscribed to any medication lol. I hope I have kids with those disorders so I can ween them off their meds when I go to visit my family and unleash them on my parents ahahahahahaha. Horrible. I know.
Well, I should get back to scrubbing the kitchen down so the house is ready for my parents 2 day stay. y a y.
