Okay folks, it's been one hell of a week. I don't normally go off, but I need to vent.
You all know that Mr. Trojangal had tests this week that we're waiting to get back from doctor.
We walked away from the house we were bidding on b/c the seller did not want to make $5000 worth of repairs, nor was she going to come off the price.
As if we were not already stressed about that crap, something happened that has us CTFU:
When we got back from running errands, etc this afternoon. there was a message from a friend on the voice mail. Two years ago, hubby's best friend had died from cancer, and we were always going by to see his mom when we were going through their town about 4-5 times a year. She was always Karl's "other mom "-a good friend who has ALWAYS been there for him and friends growing up--had died. SHE DIED 3 WEEKS AGO AND THEY WERE CALLING US AT 8:42 THIS MORNING TO TELL US THE SERVICE WAS THIS AFTERNOON!!!
We are 5 freaking hours away from the town she lives in, and by the time we got the message, it was later afternoon.
My hubby is in shock right now--I am so angry that I can hardly see straight.
Give us strength and words of encouragment. Karl looked at me, with tears and his heart broken in his eyes, and asked me if things were going to get better.
I told him that things would, but wow, it's hard to keep him going when I'm so stressed myself.
<sigh>
