School starts

I am thinking about deleting this whole blog. I don't have any urge to write here any more. I guess I will just let it sit just in case I change my mind.

I start school tomorrow and I am a little nervous. I always am the first day and then I am fine after that. This year will be even harder I am sure. I am taking a step aerobic class to try and get in shape, get healthy and increase my energy. I have two left feet so we will just see how it goes. HA.

Jared is so not hurt at all but isn't going back to the dr til 9/11 to get a release to return to work. I lectured Peter this weekend and said it is not his job to find work around our house so he can earn some money and it isn't his job to find work for him at his company. It is Jared's job and he isn't doing shit to get back to work. He got kinda defensive but then later I heard him talk to his ex and say the same thing to her basically that Jared isn't doing anything to get back to work to pay his own bills. Later at auntie Maria's birthday dinner I told him again that Jared is milking the system and that I have seen that sort of "you owe me mentallity" all the time at my job. I can smell fraud a mile away. Sad to say about his son but true. He is lazy and likes to play the victim at everything. What ever.

We still don't know if we will lose the house. We had an appraiser come out last week and should know today what it will take to save the house. I have a feeling we will have to come up with $40k to save it or else try to buy a new house. Who knows. I am trying not to worry about it any more because it wasn't doing me any good.

Lazy kids

Last week Andrew was supposed to come back up and work another week for Peter's company. He did't want to so Jared came up instead with the intention of taking his place. They were doing heavy labor for 16 hours a day. Now mind you this kid says he is too hurt to go back to work and filed for state disability. What is wrong with this picture. His dad is taking up fo him because h is saying no one will release him to return to work full duty until he has an mri of the shoulder. I am all look. Time has passed since either dr saw him and he is much better. Don't tell me you can't go in to the dr office and say hay I am better relesase me to rtw. But no his kid wants to milk the system and I am sorry, I hand;e Workers' comp claims for years and don't take lightly people who abuse the system. His medical insurance kicked in this week. He never went to work for Peter's co, because the boss said it was too much of a liability. On Fri Sat he worked on side jobs. No problem. He also got his insurance stuff in the mail with cards and stuff. So we told him that now he has insuranc ehe needs to call a get a primary care dr, make and appt and get a referral IF necessary and get a release to return to work. he didn't do shit. When he was leaving on Sund Peter asked me to look on line to get the names of primary dr's off the net. I didn't find anything in time before they left. So when I found a shit load of a list. I copied the info of about 15 dr.'s their names, address and tele. numbers and emailed it to Jared saying that if he can work for his dad he can work for Lowes and to get off his duff because Lowes doesn't owe him anything. He didn't even make it past probabtion befor ehe started losing time from work. He is one lazy kid. We paid him and bit to do some jobs around the house and he did a half assed job on everything. It wasn't even worth paying him not too mention that it isn't our resposnibility to provide him with work or money. That kind of shit pisses me off because he takes advantage of his dad. Peter is too easy on his kid. He says Jared isn't very smart. I kno this but it is no excuse. Everyone has been telling him what needs to be done and he doesn't because he doesn't care if he goes back at Lowes. He told me. I know he is just working it and that is what pisses me off about Peter offering him work up here. I only offered a few things to do, just enough so Peter didn't bug me and not so much that he makes bank at our house. bullshit.

There that is what has been bugging me.

As for the house, Peter asked for a $10,000 bonus from his boss (so we didn't have to sell the expedition) and his boss said yes, when do we need it? Peter told him in two weeks, so we will believe it when we see it. That will be a total of $30,000 to make up for the difference in what we owe and what the house is worth. The appraiser is coming out finally... not set yet but soon.

That bitch still has a ton of Jared's stuff because Jared decided to leave it. All those things, Peter or myself gave to him when he moved out. It was intended for him not her. He left a microwave, speakers, stereo, bed, rice cooker, crock pot, etc.

Oh and I forgot

Miss Christina called Peter last night to tell him that she called Jared last night and asked if he would get back together with her. He has made huge strides as of late. He got his driver's licence back, he goes to NA and AA meetings all the time, he works full time now at Lowes and he started dance lessons. I guess he has been paying his bills and is back on track. Christina was impressed with this I guess and wants to get back together again. I really am expecting her to hurt him again, but I pray that when it does happen that Jared is a stonger man. Maybe it is mean spirited to think negatively about her still but I just don't see them staying together.

Jared and Peter

Drama, jared, step kids

Andrew and the GF are coming tomorrow. Peter put me on the friggin spot this week and asked me if Heather can come spend the night with Andrew while he still had Andrew on the phone. Yes I know he did that on purpose and I said I suppose. It is just much easier than fighting it. I don't want a great big huge fight like last time. I will give him the chance to hang himself. He will at some point or another, I know, because he is a teen boy with raging hormones and she, a teen with raging hormones. Peter doesn't give a shit as long his boy spends time with him.

Jared has been calling Peter every day practically and has been talking to him about everything. Peter is thrilled obviously and he got a call this am thanking Peter for his love and support. Ahh now that I would say makes up for the lack of a Christmas gift any day. Peter asked me to call him and check in but his kids don't like me so I always feel an awkward silence on the other end when I call and talk. I end up doing all the talking and they sort of grunt on the other end. It is a discomfort I would rather not put myself in. Plus it is pretty obvious I don't like his ex girlfriend and Jared knows it. I sent him that email about her having the camera still and hiding it. He obviously sent it to her or told her about it for me to get that nasty email from her. He is still trying to win her heart back and Peter is trying ever so hard to get Jared's focus off of the "girl" as he so affectionately refers to her. Jared lost a friend, the one that lives with the dude that fucked his ex and lives next door to her, but was no friend any way. This friend got Jared the job he is working at and then when he (the not friend) was supposed to show up for work didn't, leaving jared to cover the dudes shift. He got tired of that and told the boss. Now the ex friend got fired and blames Jared for it. Immature little twat. Jared's ex called him yesterday saying he is talking shit about Jared and she would know since she is still seeing the dude that she fucked. Poor Jared is being strung along by that bitch and he doesn't even know it. I guess this neighbor guy has no job and nothing going for him so she is telling Jared that is why she won't date him but I don't hear about it stopping her from going over there and doing the flirty flirt thing. Just Christmas day the dude that got fired was saying that Christina and the loser guy were hanging out together. it is like watching a soap opera and makes me so grateful I am an adult and out of that teen crap that goes on. Wheww don't miss those days.
