Stuff that's good:
* My mother not coming to stay with me when my brother's baby is born as her husband is coming as well now and they are going to stay with a friend of theirs far far away from me
* They found a better hire car deal than they originally had AND this one has an outlet at the airport so I am off the pressure hook of being asked (required) to pick up the hire car for them and collect them from the airport
* I am going to New Zealand tomorrow for five days staying with my beloved Goddess and relaxing and hanging out and having some much needed escape from the whirlwind my life has been the last few weeks
* Cake
* A someone getting wishes coming true and being all happy and excited about it
* Ms L making an offer on a house just 15 minutes away from me and planning on moving down from the mountain... and the gentle development of our friendship..
* Falling in love
* Hearing a friend who I always felt kind of disapproved of my life tell me she's kind of jealous of the life I live and enjoys how vastly different our worlds are because it keeps her mind from getting stuck in a narrow rut
Stuff that's not so good...
* My mother telling me that she got a serve from her brother who got a serve from Evil Nanna because I didn't ring, or send a card to her when Vile Ron died. Mum telling me I'm inconsiderate and impolite. I told her I was sorry she and my uncle had been drawn into it and agreed to play, but I wasn't going to and if Evil Nanna had an issue with me then let her tell ME about it... she reiterated that she thought I should have at least sent a card out of politeness, I had been raised better than that, and I let the silence on the phone spin out until she realised I was not going to buy in, sighed and changed the subject. It's really hard to sit out that kind of silence, but I knew if I spoke I would attempt to defend myself, giving tacit agreement that I had done something that required defending... and nothing I had to say would have been productive.
* My brother didn't even call me to wish me a happy birthday
* My car is about to fall to pieces and I can't afford to get her fixed, she's not worth selling, and I can't afford a new one.
* I haven't had more than 5 hours sleep in any 24 hour period since last Friday... I'm manic with sleep deprivation...
