my family puts the nuts in the mixed can

I go to Thanksgiving at the 50 plus pothead relatives. The daughter and bf come in with the 7 week old baby. ( I didn't think the baby was very cute....even though I lied and said it was and then lied some more...) The baby's mother is given a joint by the grandmother and the mother goes outside to smoke it with bf. Baby's mother wonders why the baby doesn't want to nurse, but only likes a bottle. I googled later, and found pot smoking can make a baby NOT want to nurse. Look it up .
Basically T day was nice and my sister that doesn't like me was actually nice to me and we took a walk in the woods and she didn't try to push me off a cliff........so it was a good day in many ways. Good food too.

Now a few days later, I sit here fuming over more relative crap. This is about the son and the other grandmother , who is slipping in to la la land. The G-son has been begging her all summer for money. I find she gave him ALOT of money before she went south. I am livid.
And now I will try to tune this crazy bunch of by-blood-onlys , out of my mind.

coloring my hair w animals

I generally wait until I look like trailer trash (which I am close to anyway,living where I do) before I RE-color
my hair. I get the gray stuff going down the part up top and on the sides and I look quite
repulsive. Today, I decided to get the box of Golden Brown hair color and go at it. I am
dripping with this messy goop on my head and have to keep a paper towel w me at
all times to keep wiping away the color running down my face. While waiting I think..
aahhh I can write to Mom. I begin. Rody , young dog, aka pita, starts to whine behind me
at the door. The kittens want in. Then they want out. Then Rody doesn't want out. Then
the neighbor has her dogs out in the field behind me letting them run. My dogs go
bolistic watching. bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark ..run to other door to look out window ....bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark ..... jumping going crazy. I tell them
if they would behave and not run away, they TOO, could go run out in the field. It is not
digested ..it is bark bark bark bark bark.
FINALLY, I have rinsed the color out of my hair. The critters have all settled down.
I think I am going abandon ship soon. It used to be to get away from THE HUSBAND
now........well read above.......

Bass Ackwards

I have an ulcer and it hurts like hell tonight. I had a scope put down my gullet last week. The verdict was a chronic ulcer. I have had ulcers in the past. This time I have a doozie. I have two different meds to take.

I have globs of stress. This compounds my ulcer and it's antics. I was thinking tonight of ways to
eliminate the stress in my life. My mother cannot be neglected so that idea is out. I mean she IS my mother. My dogs drive me absolutely nuts. The old dog does not deserve my foot up his ass. Like I "said" he is old and quite stupid. The young dog is a royal pain. He is hyper and too much. I even gave him away once. The new owner let him run free in traffic. I took him back.
Young dog, is cute and funny...but he has his dark side. He is just terribly bad and annoying.
I am not good at training dogs and I think young dog is a dog that you would have to beat
over the head to train. I don't believe in beating dogs over the head.

So it comes down to my mother and two dogs...that equal STRESS. Now if I put my mother in a kennel and the dogs in a nursing home, I would probably be told I did something ass backwards.
But right now it all sounds like a good plan.
