As if my week couldn't get any worse with everything that I have going on already...
Wonderful female problems, arnaswartzaperiod, love triangle from hell...
It has all been added to.
The phone rings this morning and I answer & look at the caller id as usual.
It's my best friend.
Something's wrong, she never calls me at work unless I ask her to & I hadn't called her this morning.
She said good morning in her usual way to happy tone and then says "I've got bad news"
My heart sunk. I couldn't have even imagined what it could be.
We've been friends since 6th grade so her family is my family.
She goes on to tell me that her dad (who is a very good heart surgeon here in town) has handed over his practice. They think he has MS and he's leaving Sunday to go to the Mayo Clinic.
For those who don't know what the mayo clinic is (*cough* ozzies *cough*), there's 2 in the US. 1 is in Arizona and the other in Minnesota. This place specializes in hard to diagnose diseases. My family has had 2 encounters with them. My dad was diagnosed after years of his head being constantly turned to one side and trip after trip to neurologist, of Spasmodic Torticollis.
My grandmother was diagnosed there too prior to having alzheimers. And for some reason I can't think of the name of the disease she had....hmmm...I'll think of it later & let you know (not that you're worried about it).
Anyways, when your options have run out in your home town and surrounding counties, you can go to the mayo clinic and they typically firgure out what is wrong with you and set you up with a doctor and treatment plan back home.
The catch is, it could take a few days, or months to figure out the problem.
Anyways, it's not good, especially for the man who's healthy as a horse to willingly hand over his practice...
During our conversation she had told me that my mom called her this morning. Now normally I wouldn't care, but my mom called to see if she wanted to buy any Mary Kay.
I had told my mom 3 times this week that she said she couldn't do it this time, she didn't have the money, etc etc etc.
My mom only tries to call my friends when she's pissed off at me.
So I called my mom, asked her why in the hell she didn't believe me when I told her that she didn't want to buy any, and that she didn't necessarily want to talk to her.
Her comment? "Something just told me to call her this morning and I'm glad I did, since you obviously haven't talked to her"
That was it, the last straw. I told my mom basically to shove it up her ass, she is so bored sitting at home maybe she shouldn't have just quit her job. My friends don't want to be her friend...she's their friend's mom, it's weird. I don't call my friends mom's and talk to them, I have no damn desire to.
But like I said, she only does it when she's pissed off at me.
Now she's pissed at me because (Get this, I hope you're sitting down), she sees how well I'm doing now (meaning finacially) and it annoys her that I don't ask her for money anymore.
I'm not saying that I'm just rolling in money, but I'm taking care of bills, I just paid $225 for princess' upcoming birthday party, and I bought a new car. All without consulting her once. It annoys her, she for some reason wants me to be constantly in a bad financial place and asking her for money....I'm sorry I work so hard so that I don't have to.
Plus it annoyed her last night that a mutual friend (although not all the mutual) called me about Princess' party and asked if I had time to go to lunch or dinner any this week. I told her that (as of yesterday) I got off early Friday & I thought me and my mom were going to go to lunch and if she wanted to meet us...
"No, I'd rather just go with you"
Not a problem, I know alot of people who don't like my mom, she's nosey and wants to tell people how to run their life.
It pissed my mom off, she couldn't figure out why in the world she wouldn't want to have lunch with her. Probably because I tend to listen and only give advice when asked....I'm also not very nosey...
I don't know if my mom's jealous or what.
I told her that if my doctor told me that this was my last chance to have a baby that I may just do it...
She told me I shouldn't bring another child into the world like I brought Princess. Meaning while I wasn't married. Um....does it truly matter? Not to mention I didn't remember asking her premission to do so...
Anyways
As if that wasn't enough, I've done something to royally screw up my left knee. Keep inmind I had surgery on my right one not but 4 months ago.
I didn't really notice it until last night but if I squat down I can't put weight on it to stand back up, or if I'm sitting I have to push myself up with my hands, you can forget about kneeling...
So I was sitting at lunch and had it bent when I felt a golf ball sized lump....
Typically that's not good......
However, I refuse to have surgery again.
The surgery didn't bother me as much as the 6 weeks of physical therapy, now that I don't wanna go through again.
Not cause it hurt, just because it was annoying.
I'm hoping if I just ignore it, it will go away!!!
