Itโ€™s not even depression anymore.

We all get knocked down, life is a *****bitch and then you get old and it's even more of a *****bitch. All any of us can do is get back up and keep fighting. Laugh at the world while you're down, that's what I try to do. Might as well, it beats crying.

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 can see my wife as the slave in this same scenario too. She had 5 kids in 6 years but she's never had a job.. so she's never worked, right? pffft

I feel like I have no energy and also I have some strange sore on my right face near eye and cheek area , why is that?

Well how old are you? If you're 15 it's a zit, if you're 75 it's a bruise because that blood thinner you've been taking since the by-pass surgery just makes you bruise easily. Eat right, sleep a lot, keep on a constant schedule and you will be healthier. Could be the weather change, when the temperatures start changing a lot it affects people in bad ways. Maybe you were bitten by a Brown Recluse spider, it that spot is the size of a silver dollar tomorrow morning carry your happy butt to the hospital.

Iโ€™ve been stuck here for such a long time I donโ€™t think I will ever get out.

That's like the main problem in America now too. They call it "failure to launch". Yeah it has it's own name. Rent is sooo high and wages are sooo low that kid can't get out from under their parent's roofs. I should know I have three middle aged men living in my house, two of whom are my sons and the other is one of their friends who I just took in because he needed help. They are all three gone right now pooling their resources and looking for someplace else to live.

And really in my situation I'm not sure I want an empty nest. My wife claims she lives in a men's dormitory and bitches a lot about it but I enjoy having people around I always have and I always will. If they move out there will be three empty bedrooms and a big empty house with just me and my wife... hmm. They hate the stigma of living with their parent's and I can certainly see that. I moved out when I was 18 but it was a whole lot easier. TV was free, rent was cheap, and still employer's paid about the same as they do now. In 1980 I was making $10 an hour and a lot of people can't do that now. It's sad all over. Welcome to the global economy we will all be eating rice when the Chinese take over.

Her dad was invited, he chose not to come after the paparazzi debacle.

Honestly, I haven't really taken to her yet. I dont think theyre a match, she seems like a loud limelight kinda person and hes much more reserved. I feel like shes on the red carpet everytime I see them on tv. Plus shes kinda old, a divorce and not upper class.

TBH I'm still not a huge fan of Kate either.

I like the Queen, not much of a fan of the rest of them. Apparently the wedding is even bigger stateside than it is here.e he's 6th in line to the throne now so it doesnt really matter.

Glad I got a reaction out of someone from the UK, that's what I was looking for. Thanks Nix. And I can fight my own fights big alone, but yeah I like what you say!
