Glad this week is over.

It actually IS raining!

Ever have one of those weeks? It started out with putting our dear sweet kitty to sleep. Yeah, that was so sad.

Then...

I got that email telling me my blog ad account was disabled, so no more mad money from blogging.

Then...

My ebay listing was removed for copyright infringement after I had already sold and shipped the item.

Then...

I got a return request from a guy who bought a shirt from me and said it didn't fit. (Yeah, because it was listed as a woman's shirt, not a man's shirt, dummy!)

Then...

I got a call from my brother in NY telling me my dad is acting really different after having back surgery and that I should think about going to visit him. My anxiety level hit new heights after that. I hate to fly. My last few experiences were horrible, so if I go it will most likely be a week long road trip with hubby and we will have to go into debt to pay for gas, hotels and meals. This on top of the $2700 debt we just took on with the oral surgery. Stressing, stressing.

Then...

Yesterday, one of my lunch lady co-workers stopped in for a visit and while her car was parked in front of my house, my goofball neighbor hit it as he was backing out of his driveway. It was a brand new vehicle! She just bought it like a month ago. I felt horrible! Yesterday I just wanted to crawl under a blanket and hide.

And as if that were not enough...

I spent way too much time using pruning shears in the garden and now I've developed trigger finger. That's when your finger gets stuck in the bent position and you have to use your other hand to "pop" it back straight again. I used to have it in my thumb really bad from overuse at work and I needed physical therapy. Now it's my middle finger and it hurts like heck. I have to cure this before work starts, so I've been doing hot and cold soaks and splinting it at night to rest the tendon. Sometimes I can feel the pain going all the way up my arm into my armpit.

On the positive side of things, the person who bought the workout DVD set that was pulled by ebay (after the sale), has not contacted me, so I'm hoping all is well. He can't leave feedback because the listing vanished when they pulled it. I find it very clever of ebay to wait for the sale to go through, collect their non-refundable final value fee and then pull the listing. They are supposedly doing the right thing for the complaining company and making themselves look good, but they are still making a profit. Very sneaky tactic.

Hubby has been at Hamacon in Huntsville Alabama this weekend. Today is the last day. Yesterday he sold 39 pairs of his custom goggles. 39 pairs in one day! That's a record! The convention had over 3500 attendees which is really good for a small convention. Totally unexpected.

And to take my mind off my troubles, Megan and I went to see Pixar's Inside Out. It was so smart and funny. I highly recommend it. One of my favorite parts was when we met The Forgetters. They worked in long term memory dumping old memories like names of all the Presidents and phone numbers (because she has them stored in her phone she doesn't need to remember them anymore, lol), but they decide to keep an annoying TV commercial jingle for laughs. Those balls represent different emotions. Green is disgust, yellow is happy, purple is fear, blue is sadness and red is anger. Right now I've probably got a big section full of those blue ones.

I'm not even going to tag this post. Let's hope upcoming week is a better one and then I can put all this bad stuff in the memory dump.
