He says, "well, where I went to school, they were not IN (the actual) high school (building)"

I said, "doesn't matter. Still in high school. They might keep them out of the actual high school building due to 9th graders being so young and possibly bullied. But they ARE high school students, from a NATIONAL standpoint"

Him: "Nope. Not in my city...."


Me: eyeroll

9th grade is the first year of high school. Pretty sure Google could resolve this debate.

I grew up in a school system that had 9th grade housed in the junior high schools due to space limitations in the high school buildings, but the grades and credits went into the high school records.

Yep. I googled. He still insisted freshmen are not "high school" students๐Ÿคฃ

Meh. I've been feeling grumpy and unappreciated all day, and I'm pretty sure I've constructed most of it in my own mind. It's hard to stay motivated when it seems that nothing you do matters. I bet if I went on strike they'd notice.

The other day I went outside to look at my grapevines while everyone else was home. My teenage son complained that I'd left the three year old "unsupervised" and I should have asked before going out into my own backyard. Am I the only adult in the house? Are other people's video games and crap more important than anything I do? If I don't cook, the big people eat junk and the little people starve. It never occurs to any of the big people to even offer the little ones something to eat. If I don't clean it up, the mess stays. If I don't wash the laundry, the teenagers just wear dirty clothes, the husband just buys himself more. I started a diet because my weight is stuck much higher than it's ever been while I'm not pregnant. In three months I've lost almost 2 lbs by eating 1100 calories a day. My husband has lost 25 lbs in the same amount of time eating Nutty Bars and Resee Cups all day long, because when he's at work he doesn't actually work but instead uses the treadmill that someone left in a storage locker at his office, then he comes home and just sits. I'd like to exercise, but I'm busy from morning until night being the only person in the house who does anything to keep this pigsty in some semblance of habitability. And if I don't do it, nobody cares - I've tried leaving things to see if someone else will take care of it - they don't! They are utterly oblivious.

Ok. Self pity rant done.

Who wants ice cream?

Holy cow! You described my life! I'm so sorry and I feel for you!

I once left the toilet clogged to see if husb would take care of it as he promised. I was going back to school and completely overwhelmed. It sat for a month and you could smell the odor at the front door. So I took care of it...((sigh))

I got fired for "missing money" when I didn't lose any money.

Hopefully things will look up. Move on and get a better job๐Ÿ˜Š

Most of you know Iโ€™m not much a drinker.

Jk. I'm not a big drinker, either. I will have a glass of wine once or twice a year.

Been around too many alcoholics/addicts
