Mayotte banner currently for a felt EQ

It's sad that we feel the need to post this when we see a banner for Mayotte. It's the only way to track what's going on there at this point.

Omg, after seeing that banner I spent like an hour or so (while I work which I very rarely do) trying to find a site for Mayotte earthquakes. FFS, it's not an easy find. The closest I found wasn't even worth sharing.

A HUGE thank you to John & MoN for holding down the day shift today! And Kickin for the night shift!



Terribly stressful day. Between work and trying to deal with my sales guy from Toyota because it's time to swap my lease. Dealing with credit applications and personal shit during work is just a nightmare. I'm lucky to use the ladies room once per day, let alone deal with swapping a lease and all that it entails while in that office.

I'm supposed to return my current car on Saturday. Problem is, it's got some dents on the hood. Some rather big. I still have no idea how it happened. My best guess is that someone sat on the hood of my car, leaving a huge dent. Nef had tried to bang the dent out at the time (months ago), but it didn't help much and ultimately made the hood look like it has multiple small-medium/large dents instead of one huge dent.

I brought my current car by Toyota tonight on my way home from work and my sales guy said that Toyota would definitely charge me for the hood dents. And that they will inflate the cost ridiculously. He suggested I fix it before returning it on Saturday. What?! Ummm, I have work tomorrow first of all, and second of all, who could I possibly find to fix that tomorrow?!

This whole car thing is the straw that broke the camel's back. My stress level is completely off the hook. Between work, my health, Ryan's heart, Christmas, shortage of money, etc...I'm ready to throw the towel in.

Oh, and mini's mono test result came in today. Positive. She has mono.

So life is jolly for sure.

And that quickly, I can post this and mean it...

:s27xmas7:

And I know...wah, wah, wah. I hate even posting my gripes, but sometimes I seriously need to get them out of me, for me. Life is heavy right now. In every aspect. I'm just exhausted. I'm a fighter and all, but really?!

Morning Team! Xx

I have the runniest snottiest nose :/ Sitting at my desk with rolled up kleenex balsam tissues up each nostril Bleurggghhhhh.

Love and Blessings to you all Xx

Boy can I relate! Got there a couple weeks ago when grandson used my truck and ended up going someplace he shouldn't - got all 4 tires sliced!!! And he got arrested when the cops came to investigate the tire-slashing, because he had an outstanding warrant. On top of everything else, it was just too much.

I literally was ready to take the great-grandbaby and run away. Instead, I let go. I looked at all that was going on and if it was something I had no control over, I gave it to God to handle. Easy to say, harder to do. But it worked.

I know that this time of year brings its own stress - too much to do and not nearly enough time. And tight finances don't help. Add in health issues, job stress, etc etc etc...
So, be kind to Simple! Mini will get well, Ryan's health is being monitored, and Christmas will come & go. Please take care of you & your health so you can be there for the ones you love & who love you! You are a precious soul, and important to so many people!

Take some quiet time, reach deep inside, and either pray or meditate. Separate from the daily stress, and let the Lord tend to all the worries while you refresh your being. Let the love of all your friends here wash through you, and let the total love of the Lord flood your soul. I love you, lady! You have a special place in my heart.
