I've Come to Realize

In the past week I have had so many ugly situations thrown at me that there are a couple of things I have come to realize:
1) Life can truly suck. No matter how frustrated I get with my life I now have to remember my friend from high school whose mother is battling cancer and one of my best friends whose husband is having major surgery next week. Both are people who are put in situations that they do not deserve.

2) True friends come through when you need them. I am lucky to have some fabulous friends that seem to know me better than I know myself. I do not always tell them everything but that is because I see myself as not wanting to burden them

3) Words truly can be hurtful. No matter what anyone says words are painful. I watched Oprah a few weeks ago when she did a story on bullies and I realize that the most hurtful bullies in our life can be our family. They know every insecurity and bring them up all the time.

4) We never know where life will take us. I never thought 10 years ago after graduating from high school that I would still be single and in college. Although I can officially say by August I will be in my own apartment if my roomates ever turn in their application paperwork (but that is another story for another post)

5) A good pedicure can make an crappy day all better. I really don't need to explain this one I hope.

6) Just because you want to be my BFF does not mean I reciprocate the feeling and you need to deal. This is aggravating because I am a good person who does not like to hurt others feelings but I am at the point of spelling it all out. Seriously please learn to deal.

7) Although I love to go on vacation they never go as planned. There always seems to be something that happens that changes plans. Either storms or stopping and picking things up with family. The annoyances that drive me batty.

8) There is something seriously wrong with my back but I am to stubborn to go to a chiropractor to deal with it.

9) I hate summer. There I have said it the past 3 days it has been ungodly hot. I believe yesterday the heat index reached 108 degrees and I live in the middle of the US. That seems a little to intense for me. It would make sense if I lived in Arizona or Flordia and could deal but heck I live in Nebraska

and lastly
10) sleep is my friend. To bad the sun would not rise till after 10 AM and I would be happy as when it comes up I wake up. Really annoying on the weekend when I should sleep in.

Well that is my rant for today.
Hopefully I can give everyone an apartment update soon I am just waiting on my roomates and they seem to not want to answer my calls :( I am sure they are just not getting to the phone soon enough.
