First, I’m sorry for the “going away” post with no explanation last night. Hubby and I have been having some marital problems and I had my stuff packed and was leaving last night, but other family members told me to chill out, and sleep on it before I make such a drastic decision. So I obviously ended up not leaving last night, but was up til 3 playing games on my computer to try and “quiet” my brain that was going 100 MPH…LOL!

Then at 8 this morning the phone rings. It’s our landlord, his daughter, who was the person that last lived in this house, decided that she wants to plant some flowers to make things look “pretty” and is coming down this morning. WTF?!?!?! Why in the HELL does someone who hasn’t done a thing with this yard or even the house for YEARS want to plant some flowers to make things look pretty NOW? Why not go around the property and pick up and the friggin pickle buckets, tarps and trash that you and your children threw all over the place? Why not do something to fix the “deck” so that it can actually be used?

I tried to explain to them that A). we have a frost/freeze warning coming in a couple of days and if the flowers aren’t hardy enough, they’ll die and B). It’s my Mothers Day tradition to get my flowers to plant in the flower beds, but they didn’t care, they want it done now and not in a few weeks. Anyone that lives in this area that has just a little common sense knows that you don’t plant flowers before Mothers Day, if you do, you run the chance of them dying in a heavy frost because we’re not in the “clear” before then!

Yeah, I know, I should feel lucky that they want to do something like this, but I’d much rather have them do something about the shit piles of trash and garbage that they left since that’s going to take much more work to do than cleaning out the flower beds and planting flowers!
