Just Took A Step...What A Long Crawl!!

  Holy Moses! I am worn out from all that! I never knew you had to have the brains of a rocket scientist to set up a website and a blog. I just wanted to share some funny stuff with everybody and hopefully put smiles on some faces. I am a RN. I can help bring someone back to life for cryin' out loud, but I am about as smart as a box of rocks when it comes to this stuff. I did get through it obviously. I could say it's been that kind of day, but really, it's my life story. I am forever having glitches in my day. In my younger years it was no big deal. Now, after 40, God help me! Earlier I was sending a type of chain letter deal..don't judge, it as for charity..and I had 56 people to send it to. No big deal, right? I am in Facebook. I go to Messenger and click all my little contacts I needed to send. I hit send and there's an error message. What? But then it sends it. No big deal..wrong! I get this message from an aquaintance in Egypt. She is upset. I'm thinking,"Really? You are gonna be an asshole about this?" She said it woke her up. What? Why on earth would it wake her up? Even if she had the sound on it would be one little ding or whatever noise her device or computer makes. No, one ding or whatever wouldn't wake most people up, however, seven dings in a row would sound like, I don't know, a Damn alarm going off!! Yeah, I look in Messenger to read the next message she sent me...after I apologized, and low and behold it sent her seven of those. Then I realize,"Holy shit, I sent over fifty people that stupid thing!" That means I am going to have to send out some kind of apology before I get a ton of hateful messages back cause I just woke up God only knows how many people! She ended up being very nice about it. Shit like that happens to me all the time though. By the way, I did not send another mass message out. Nope, I posted to my status and I've been keeping my fingers crossed ever since. After that I wasn't tired at all, so I decided to set this up. I was hitting one brick wall right after another. I had to go take a breathing break... you know, when you have to step away from the computer to keep from throwing it across the room. I'm standing in my living room at four in the morning with my hands on my hips. pacing and breathing hard. I'm sure I looked like I was in labor or something. Thank God no one was awake! You know, years ago when I was diagnosed with Lupus and Fibromyalgia my doctor told me I could keep the flares under control as long as I remain as stress free as possible. I had to laugh. Are you kidding me? That's like telling a raging alcoholic to go into a bar during happy hour but don't drink! I don't look for stress, matter of fact, I try to hide from it now, but it always seems to find me. I got traps bigger than most body builders (those muscles between your neck and your shoulders). Sorry, I had to add that because I use to ask my husband to rub my shoulders and he loves correcting what I say. When you have already had a long,stressful day and everything hurts the last thing you ant to hear is,"Those are your traps, your shoulders are the bones..." Oh my God ! I am a nurse I know what my damn shoulders are! I didn't say it, but I thought it,"Why don't you shut your trap and get to rubbin'?!" Then he always tells me it's like rubbing concrete. I usually have several hundred glitches in my day. I don't go looking for stress, but it always seems to find me. If it can happen to anyone, it's gonna happen to me. Just sayin' People see my red hair and they always ask me if I'm Irish. Yes. I'm part Irish. Then the follow up question is, " Don't Irish people have good luck?" The saying is, the luck of the Irish. They never said it was good. If you know anything about Irish history you know these people do NOT have good luck. I inherited THAT gene.It's not all bad. I have actually had a pretty blessed life. I was the only kid I knew whose parents were not divorced. They were married forty-three years until my dad passed a year and a half ago. I had really good grandparents and even a couple of great grandparents. All were very good. I had a great childhood and a pretty decent adulthood so far...even with my glitches. Every step I take I have to crawl to get there...but I do get there. I will be sharing lots of hopefully funny stuff. I have all kinds of stories. I've learned it's better for your body and your soul if you can find something to laugh about and being able to laugh at yourself is good for you. Well, if you can't laugh at yourself then....laugh at someone else!!I don't mind if you laugh at me. I would rather someone laugh at me than bitch me out. Have a good day all...I am going to bed!
