Dear best friend,
Get a clue, you're broke because you won't stop spending money
You have no babysitter because word gets around and everyone now knows you don't pay on time, you're constantly late, you're kids are monsters
No moving across town is NOT going to solve your problems, they will only get worse because you will be moving to a bad part of town and have no help at all.
Get a budget, stick to the budget and listen to the advice everyone gives you!
ETA: Oops YOUR kids are monsters |
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

Dear ex husband,
Just because our son yelled at you in the car two weekends ago was no reason to pull over, get him out and shake him while yelling to the point that a passerby pulled over and threatened to call the police. Nor was it a reason to tell him that he is not welcome to come with you again until he "changes."
Please realize that the only reason I didn't call the police myself is that he begged me not to. But to say "the ball is in his court" for an apology? Really? Who is the adult here? He is TWELVE. and you are about to irreparably damage your relationship with him. Ass. | |

Dear office manager
I'm sorry but telling your daughter (my co-worker) to stay home so I can do her job is not going to happen!!! I have a job that requires my time and effort and I won't be doing her job so she can stay home because she is stressed out.
Then telling me not to complain when you ask the boss (your brother) if she can take a leave of absence with full pay because job, new baby and PT school is way to stressful for her
Who the F#$@* do you think is going to do her job???????
Am I the only sane person left here in the office???? OMG working for a family business sucks sometimes | |

Rosy cheeks, I had to comment on your post. I'm so sorry that your son and dil treat you like that. I bet they get to spend lots of time with her family! I would never treat my inlaws like that. No matter what I thought of them. And my husband would never let me boss him around and not let him see his family. We make sure our kids see both sets of grandparents equally. We don't play favorites. If I have an issue with his parents I keep my mouth shut. I always thought that if I had a son, and he see us spend equal time with the paternal grandparents, then he would keep that up when he gets married. It sounds like your dil is a very jealous and insecure person. I hope they start treating you better! Your dil needs to understand that she may some day have a dil that treats her like that. If a husband was keeping his wife away from her family, people would be up in arms that he is controlling or abusive. Well it works both ways. Sorry to ramble, I just feel bad when people are treated like you are.

Dear B!T#$ across the street,
STOP parking in front of my house when it snows and blocking my front sidewalk. I know its a public street and I really don't care if you park there, but it really pisses me off when you do and the plow can't get through and you leave all my daycare parents to walk through snow drifts because you've blocked the sidewalk I've shoveled yet again. Don't you dare cope an attitude with me when I call you at 7am to move you POS van away from my sidewalk so people can easily access my home. You have 30 feet of street that has no sidewalk so park there. I'm not sure why you feel the need to always block my sidewalk, but one of these days I swear you'll find yourself with 4 flat tires  oh and just a FYI no one likes you. You constantly degrage your kids and scream foul language at them. Someone should bitch slap you into the next century.
OK I feel better  |

No, I won't make an appointment for you to come into my office so I can tell you how to fill out forms for you to file your own divorce. And no, I won't "tell you" how to do it on the phone. I have 3 years of law school and 30+ years of experience. I can't/won't try to impart all of that to you in 10 minutes because you don't want to pay a lawyer. |

Dear son, just because you are married and have your own lovely family...I have to ask, when did I stop being your family too? When did I stop being your mother? When did you stop caring about my feeling & allow your wife to disrespect me with her sharp words. When did you stop sticking/standing up for me? If you wonder why I do not call or seek you out more often, I can say it is because I do not dare....I don't want to feel like I am imposing & interfering. I miss you so much my heart hurts. I miss my grand babies. I hate feeling like I have to hold my excitement & my desire to just sweep my lovies up & kiss their whole face, for fear of being interfering & ridiculous. I never want or have asked you to choose between us! Your wife needs to be the most important person in your life & your babies too...but I wish I was still a little bit important to you. I wish I had the same relaxed, comfortable, silly, fun, relationship with you & your wife as I do with your married sisters & their spouses. But I worry about saying the wrong things & making you two upset.
As the mother of two boys this makes me sooo sad!
To my dear friend who does nothing but whine and complain about his job, please do something about it! A new job is not going to just walk in the door, you actually have to work at it!! |

Dear Administrative Assistant,
Please don't give me your riot act when I referred Mr. New Guy to you for HIPPA training. You sent everyone the link, you kept the list of who had done it, you asked for each of us to print out our certificates of completion and our test scores. That is why, when Mr. New Guy asked about HIPPA training, I referred him to you. Yes, I could have opened up my email and copied the link to Mr. New Guy, yes, I could have told him that he was to print out his certificates of completion, and yes, I could have told him to give you his test scores. But, I am not HIS Administrative Assistant, you are!!! YOU are the one in charge of the Bureau's HIPPA training. YOU are the one to keep track of the Bureau employee's training requirements.

Dear Co-worker,
Please be grateful for the treats the employees bring in on staff day. Please refrain from making comment about them. Remember, if you don't like it, you don't have to eat it. To answer your question, "No, I didn't bring whipping cream for you to put on your melon. If you are so hung up about whipping cream for your melon, you could bring it yourself." And, "Sorry that I brought Banbury DONUTS for you and not your favorite cinnamon rolls. I thought you liked jelly filled DONUTS. Sorry it was only second best." Actually, I am not sorry. I think you need to keep your comments to yourself and learn to say "Thank You!"
Your favorite co-worker  | |

Guess what? You are not the only one who has to bring home work every night. Stop whining. You are a professional, right? Or at least you claim you want to be treated as one. That means you work until the job is done. You knew the working conditions and pay when you took the job. Get over it and be the professional you claim you are. |

It is 36 degrees here in Dallas and your dog is hiding at the creek behind my house and I do not have a gate to get her/him into my yard because I can tell "Baby" is hungry, thirsty, and lonely because "Baby" comes to the fence when Buddy and Posh are out there. Tomorrow, I will have to call the city and see if they will send someone out to capture the poor Baby because he/she is too scared to come to the fence to let me see if she/he is hurt.
I HATE YOU! I WANT YOU TO BE OUTSIDE IN THE COLD WITH NO FOOD OR CLEAN WATER AND NO PLACE TO KEEP WARM. I WANT YOU DEAD BECAUSE NO ANIMAL DESERVE TO BE ABANDONED IN THIS WEATHER.

Dear self: So you are afraid that once you lose the weight, you'll find another reason to be unhappy? I thought we tackled this already. Now, drop the fear, appreciate all your blessings, and stop filling up those size 14s. And just because 8 women in your little world have recently lost weight & divorced their husbands doesn't mean you will. Dh may make you crazy, and he may fancy himself Magnum PI in those hideous short shorts, but you love him! You're welcome. Now lose the weight already. | |

dear wonderful, sweet, loving dd,
thanks SO MUCH for the strep throat. The fever, body aches, cough and tonsillitis too. not being able to swallow anything for a couple of day is WONDERFUL for my diet. while you dance around acting perfectly fine, I'm a painful mess who cries every time I cough or swallow. and complaining about how much noise I make does not make me happy either. God knows I love you more than my own life, but STOP MAKING ME SICK!
love,
mom
ps I forgot to thank you for laughing as I choked on the pus in the back of my throat. Good times. GOOD TIMES.  | |

Dear Customers,
Yes, that's right. I called you my customers. If the only time you call me is when you need my services, you are my customer, not my friend.
I am a professional. I train and board pets. I have 30 year's experience and I work hard. I expect to be compensated for my time and talent.
Customer #1
When I offered (in a charitable mood) to board your two papillions for 10 days while you took your 5 children to Disney World, I told you I would accept a love offering instead of my usual fee as outlined in the flyer I gave you. That is because I know you deserved this vacation and would never be able to afford my services otherwise. I was fully prepared to take a loss with a cheerful heart. However, giving me a squeaky bone keychain and a chocolate bar was not exactly what I had in mind. My bad. I won't do that again.
Customer #2
To date, I have worked with you through 3 dogs. Each one was chosen for the wrong reasons, against my recommedation and didn't work out for your family. Do not call me again to ask me to solve yet another behavior problem for you. If you don't intend to take my advice then don't ask for it. Further, I expect to be paid for my services. I have lost count of the number of hours that I have spent training you and your dogs. As worthless as your dogs have been you are far less trainable. I do this because I love dogs and want to help you, but I deserve to be paid for my time. Unless, of course, you want to barter. You broke our barter agreement by not showing up for our appointment. If I had done that to you I'm certain my phone line would have been burning up with your frantic calls.
OK, this time I promise I'm done complaining! |

Dear immature relative,
You asked why my daughters will not accept your friend requests on Facebook. I explained that some of the things you post are questionable and I did not feel it appropriate for teens. You said you were making sure not post inappropriate content. Last night you showed that you cannot resist sexual jokes and reposted multiple disgusting jokes. When I post under one "Postings like this are the reason your nieces cannot accept your friend requests" don't get pissy at me.

I was standing in line at Walmart for a prescription for my daughter. When I get up to the register, the man said it was not filled yet. Ok, that's fine. I continue to look around and later get back in line to get the prescription. The line was long and I had went to get in line and this woman says, "I'm in line" but she wasn't as far as I was concern because she is standing by the shelves of otc meds. I hate when people aren't in line but expect to jump in front of someone. True she had been standing there as I get near the pharmacy. But I still think that she should have been "in line".
Then as soon as I get up to the register (the second time), a woman coming from the other direction pushes her buggy near where I am and asks the younger man who was waiting on me, "Uh, can I ask you something?" I said under my breathe, "People are always trying to cut in line because they are too lazy to stand in line." To which he told the woman (without attitude), "I'm waiting on her." The woman gets offended and say,"You didn't have to get smart with me". He didn't. But after she goes away, he mutters, "Only at this Walmart."
I wish people would get in line and wait their turn just like I had to do twice. Trying to cut in line is childish. Now, if either women had been walking with a cane, in a leg brace or otherwise having a hard time walking, I wouldn't have been pissed. I would have gladly let them go in front of me.
I admit I have been working a lot of hours in the last two days without much sleep, so this is part of why I got pissed really easy tonight. But still...get in line, people! |
Don't worry about the people in your past; there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.
