I have toyed with the idea of nixing the blog entirely. But I know I’m not going to feel like I do forever. I could probably fill page after page of posts about how much I hate my job, and how I hate that I hate my job. But it would serve no purpose. It would not improve things at work. In fact, it could potentially end my employment before I want to end it. I used to love it. It was such a great group to work with, because it was like a family. Now it’s this group against that group. Each day is the potential for some new drama. The constant drama has created a revolving door of people who just get fed up with all the crap. But enough of that.

Both the kids are sick. Jamie’s better, but Chad is worse than Jamie was. I don’t think she ran much, if any fever. Chad started feeling bad Monday night, and I spent the better part of the night trying to convince him he didn’t have the swine flu, and even if he did, the swine flu isn’t near as bad as the regular flu DESPITE the media’s insistence that it’s as bad as the pandemic of 1918. Anyway, the kids are done with school for the summer, though Chad missed the last day and a half of it. I assume since we didn’t get a phone call that the school is passing them to the next grade, though I don’t know how on earth they managed to pull passing grades in the core subjects. It’s not that they aren’t smart, or that they have a learning disability, either. They have a lazy. Aced the tests, but did hardly any homework. Unless they pull C’s or better in everything, they are grounded for the summer, and a miserable summer they will have. We are going to take everything from them except for their beds and clothes. They are going to have to earn everything beyond necessities back.

So I guess this all kind of explains why I’m not writing. It’s hard to be positive when you’re pissed off and disappointed. Yes, that’s why I am avoiding anything political. LOL

I’ll be on vacation in 3 weeks. I’m really looking forward to it. I told my mom that I wasn’t going to do anything. Granted, that’s not true. I will, but I’m not going to plan on doing anything other than family get-togethers on the 4th, and a bowling “date” (for lack of a better word at the moment) with my best friend. No blogging, no Facebook, no Twitter. Not that I have tweeted anything in well over a week. Just family and rest.
