do you ever have


ok..so do you guys ever have those days where things are off and you dont know why???

yesterday i was in such a bad mood. i wasnt cranky towards ppl but i knew i was off. i didnt say much just felt blah..today i kinda feel the same way.

i know some of it is because im super tired... because a co worker decided to not come in the past 3 days which i had to cover her shift..plus go do my side job afterwards.. which makes for a long day waking up at 4am and going to bed at 11pm.

i guess i just wanted to tell someone...and its you guys

Aww...big hugs, Sara! I know that "off" feeling all too well. I hope you can get some rest soon.

Take care of yourself!

My YEAR has been like that

Hired an electrician to convert my service feed to the house to a buried feed. Also decided to replace the breaker panel.

I spent a couple hours tracing & verifying circuits because he didn't bother to write down the old number = new number

Now I have to spend another couple hours rewiring the breaker panel beacuse he did a poor job. I went to look for my heavy duty wire cutters - $30 - they are gone. They were in the room when he started work. Called his house, he is in Mexico on vacation until Saturday

Hired a plumber to do work, extend 3/4" feed to 2nd floor & fix a leak
He did a lot of work, leak was still leaking, he reduced the 3/4" feed to 1/2" then went to 3/4" to get to 2nd floor

Towns/Inspectors wonder WHY people DIY without a permit
When you pay $3k for a plumber, then $4500 for an electrician - THEN have to go redo work they did!! That's why people DIY

Sorry just PO'd about this
I fixed the leak myself & moved pipes that he wanted an additonl $1500 to move. I do have my own permit for the work I'm doing, I pull a permit for everything. I was hoping for my rough Inspection today/tomorrow, but with the EXTRA work that I PAID other people to do that I now have to fix = Inspection postponed another month

Means 2nd floor won't be insulated until late November now

How about spending a lot of money on NEW quality items that break or don't work.

Qosmio Laptop - $2500 - Video has died twice on it been repaired twice
Garmin GPSMap60CS - $450 Used 2 weeks stopped working - exchanged
Weekend Warrior RV- $35000 6 Months old, new fridge, generator, fuel pump, roof leaks, back to manufacturer 1000 miles away 2 times for roof repairs
2005 Chev Suburban 3/4 ton - $42000 Squeeking belts and front brake pulsing, been in shop 3 times
Refractometer - $60 used 4 times, eye piece falling off
and on and on.

Nothing I buy seems to work

I am grumpy, ticked off, or on the warpath at least once a week. That is what happens when a busy active person works with a bunch of lazy idiots... not all of them, just enough to make life hard sometimes.

Sara we all have crappy days. I have the luxury of a job where no one knows what I do and can screw off and vanish. Eventually you will blow them off and have enough "A" days to more than compensate.

No one is on it all the time.
