Dear Neighbor: Why do all of your guests attempt to park in my driveway? You have your own driveway and space on the street in front of your house. It's clear it's my driveway and not yours. It's bad enough that they're daft enough to park there, but to the extent they have the audacity to argue with me when I ask them to move is simply beyond me. I realize my driveway is actually closer to your door than your own driveway, but that doesn't entitle you to use it.
Dear self--
I know it's sunny and nice outside for a change, but you don't have to ride if you don't feel like it. I think a splitting headache is a good reason not to ride. If you want to go out and enjoy the sunshine, go sit on the patio and knit or go for a short walk or something. You don't really want to go out for a ride only to have to pull off and puke in someone's yard, do you?
:(
Dear weather--
You are on notice. You can stop all this crazy rain stuff next weekend, okay?
Dear mental health hiring gods,
Please hire me. I spent 60K on my education. I promise to be good.
Dear World:
Why???

I'll just keep on dreaming of a better place while this one continues to eat my soul.

Dear person yacking loudly on your cell...
Why do you leave your cube to have the converstion and wander down to our cubes? Ever hear of speaking softly? So you don't want to disturb the people in your work area, what makes it OK to disturb us? :mad:
yeah, that is such a bummer. Put up a sign of some sort in the area where she's doing it maybe? You could get creative!Quote:

My new neighbor likes to spend all day out on her deck yakking aimlessly on her cell phone. She goes on hour after hour. She's not hollering, but her voice is one of those that strongly carries over distances. She's about 40 yards from me, but I can hear every word as though she were standing next to me. I swear she has no idea how her voice carries. I cough, I sigh, I bang shovels and make noise so she knows I'm right there gardening or trying to relax in my yard. She's clueless. I'm a captive prisoner to her boring endless yakfests.
Once my DH started saying "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!" really loudly, but she still didn't 'get it'. :eek: :rolleyes: lol! We'll see how the situation progresses this summer.
Oh I sooooo know what you are going through. When I bought my house, there was nothing but woods for an entire block in the back yard. I came home after being away for a week, and found the entire block had been cleared. The house behind me is probably about 5,000 sf, and not 50 feet away - built right up to the setbacks. My neighbor, her husband, their grown sons all use their "outside voices" all the time. And then there's the 3 little yippy dogs that bark at the wind, at shadows, at cars, at people walking down my street - 500' away... The fun never stops. Even if I am behind closed doors, with my own TV or stereo on, and with the A/C or Furnace running I can hear them talking on the phone, or watching TV on their screened porch. Yikes! I've been tempted to crank up my music to overpower them, but it would overpower me too. :(Quote:

I can wait for another shot somewhere but the out of the blue freeze and timing of it all just stinks. Were they just not paying attention or what? :(
Back to the carnage and massive OT and no sleep and high stress and less $$ and paying to park at my own job and >>>>
the cool little kids I get to help feel better who end up with all of my stickers and the lonely elderly patients who just want to talk a bit and the moms and dads who just want to get well and go home to their families and the mangled few who are grateful for someone who knows how to do an xray without moving them and the wonderful coworkers I have and the interesting research studies I get to help with and the rare thank you from the nurses and >>>
