I always wanted a kid with an egg growing out of his head.

11.05.08 Endlessly In Motion



Dear Braden,

You are endlessly in motion!

Mommy is SO TIRED.  Mommy is SO EMOTIONAL.

Remember how Mommy keeps telling you to stop throwing your various body parts on Mommy’s belly because there is a baby growing in there and we don’t want to hurt it?  That baby is growing so much that it’s taking all of Mommy’s energy away from her.  It’s SUCKING OUT HER FRIGGIN’ LIFE FORCE.

All your silly energy is awesome.  Mommy really loves and appreciates it.  Your songs and dances make Mommy smile so much.

But sometimes Mommy just can’t keep up with you right now… and that’s okay, except when things get a bit dangerous.

So, for the next couple of months, could you please stop:

  • running
  • climbing
  • jumping
  • running
  • twirling
  • leaping
  • running A FREAKING LOT
  • taking off your diaper and peeing on the kitchen floor, THEN running through the puddle, slipping, falling and bashing your head

Because Mommy is seriously going to have a heart attack if you don’t CHILL OUT.

Love,
Mommy

Hai-This Suc-ku’s

Posted by Lotus, aka Sarcastic Mom in Uncategorized on March 7, 2008

Once upon a time,
our gas bill was very high
and I wrote this post.

Called to complain to
the Property Management.
Something must be wrong!

Owner of this home
didn’t care to make it right.
“Let’s just ignore it!” :-|

We wanted to move.
Instead we turned down the heat,
trying to save cash.

Latest water bill
clued us to the real problem.
And then the gas bill.

This time the gas bill
was a whopping three-fifty.
And from LESS HEATING!

Checked water heater.
OH MY LORD, it is leaking!
Both water and gas!

And, oh my, the mold!
It is being birthed right here,
then coming inside.

This mold in Braden’s
room is growing because of
leak in the heater.

Mold on all windows,
making us sick for a month…
now we know the “why.”

Inform the owner…
“Someone will be out sometime,
for an ESTIMATE.”

But we need help now!
Leaking! Dangerous! COME ON!
But they do not care.

Two days after that,
our hot water is all gone…
check water heater.

Both water and gas
spraying out of the unit.
This is REALLY BAD.

Call and tell the turds
“property being damaged.”
Here within an hour.

“It must be replaced,”
says the contractor who comes.
But then what happens?

They send another.
Owner did not like the first
estimate he got.

So still we’re waiting.
Now owner says “his man” will
fix the old heater.

But this is not good.
It is beyond fixing, and
this is dangerous.

And while we still wait?
We have no hot water here.
Wash dish? Take Bath? NO.

I bet that you can
smell me from where you are now.
I really stink. Yuck.

I look at this shot,
and I long for my shower.
It’s now but a dream.

Another Shower Shot

Oh, yeah, and the mold?
Will cost a lot to clean up.
We doubt it gets done.

Can’t stay here like this!
Our health is compromised, and
that is not okay.

But lease runs through May.
Will they let us out of it?
What do you guys think? :-S

But look at this face.
We will do whatever it
takes to protect him.

Dazed & Confused

We must get out now.
Things might get pretty ugly.
Please send us good vibes.
