Hellooooooo all!

OK Iris was a bit scarce this week ... it was one of those crazy ass, busy as shit weeks for me ... all I have to say is thank goodness I am now at work and at 11pm my crazy ass week will come to an end and Iris will get to wind down!

Monday morning I made two attempts to get to the DMV to renew the registration on my Mustang. I went to pay it last Thursday and realized that the expiration date is not the last day of the month of May as I thought, but rather today May 8th.

Rather than mail it knowing it will not be on time I decided I will go Monday after my vacation (this past Monday). Monday morning rolls around and I head out to the DMV only to find out the DMV dept closest to me closed on April 30th and moved to a county bldg downtown.

I hate going to that building because first there is like no parking on the street and the ramp is always full. Not to mention when people are there at the social services dept and they feel they are being jipped out of "THEIR" money there is some kind of bullshit fight or argument going on in the halls, outside the bldg, etc. Too much frigging drama for my ass to be around so I decide to take the drive ot to the burbs and hit the DMV there.

So I get to the DMV in the burbs and wouldn't you know they are not open on Monday ... WTF. I want to work for the government! GRRRRRRRR. Needless to say that on Monday my registration did not get renewed since I had something else that needed to be taken care of before I went to work. Yeah ... I still had an eight hour work day ahead of me.

Tuesday rolls around and I had made arrangements with my nephew to move some furniture I gave him over to his apartment. It was the only good time for me to do this. So at 8:30 am I am up and out moving furniture with my nephew. By 11:30am we are done and I head home to pick up my mom to take her for her appointment to pre-arrange her funeral. We made that appointment early last week.

So now I take mom to pick out her casket and stuff like that and afterwards we go get lunch because Iris neglected to eat breakfast and now it's 1:30 pm and I have the most gawd awful hunger headache. We eat lunch and I get home to take the beast out for a walk then head out to work ... yep another eight hours await me.

Wednesday rolls around and mom had a scheduled eye doctors appt ... this appt was made one year ago. I figured while she was having her eyes dilated I could run to the DMV near the eye doctor and renew my registration. I have the boys with me because they had the day off from school for some teacher's conference so I take one with me while the other stays with my mom. I get to the DMV and walk in and see all the people sitting down ... yes folks the dmv now provides seating for people ... I took this as a sign of if you thought the DMV was slow before, now you'll need to bring your frigging lunch and have a seat.

I look around and realize there is no damn way I will be done at the DMV before mom is done with her eye appt and that is with having to have here eyes dilated ... so I leave the DMV with no new registration for the Stang. I decide to stop at Stein Mart to buy my nephew a tie for his class day since the DMV was a bust. We get his tie and get back to the eye docs just as mom was done.

I tell my mom we are going to stop at the other DMV I went to on Monday to renew my car registration then we can all go to lunch.

I get to the DMV and go on in ... well holy friggin shit .... more seats with lots and lots of people. WTF!!!! Oh hell to the no am I waiting here for this shit. I figured it would be 2pm by the time I got out IF I was lucky! NOPE, not waiting. OK so the DMV for the fourth time is a bust, let's stop and pick up my nephews shoes. That goes quickly and we head on home to make lunch instead of stopping at a place since it is now 12:30pm and I have to be on my way to work by 2:30pm and I still needed to get into my work clothes.

We get home and I am too damn tired for cooking ... hey boys ... call for a pizza! LOL Oh I also had to get a dish ready to take to work for the nurses luncheon we were having for our nurses in our dept for Nurses week. It was something simple at took little time to do.

I get to work Wednesday and it is a total frigging zoo ... I am already smoked from the past days and the evening was looking to be a bear. Oh well ... suck it up and get to work! During my dinner break at work I get onto the DMV's website and renew my registration on line and figure I will just not drive the Stang until my new registration comes in because you know it would be just my luck to be driving it and have some routine inspection check going on and have some cop notice my registration is expired and they hit me with a ticket for that or worse ... they take my car off the road and impound it.

I get home from work and realize I HAVE to get my sister's package into the mail so that it can be there by Saturday. So I pack that up and then decide it's time for bed. Trippy ... your pay it forward gift will go out next week because I need to bake fresh bread for you and because I mailed yours out to my niece in Florida! LOL

Thursday .... aaaaaah yesssss ... Thursday.

OK ... so my nephew calls me to see if I can take him grocery shopping (he just moved into his new place two weeks ago). I figured why not ... I can drop him off and he can do his groceries while I am running my errands. I drop him off and head on out to the post office where I swear the debil was waiting for me. There was some irate dude there making life impossible for the tellers (he was pissed about losing his house to bankruptcy and now he has to move in with his mother, and have to put in a change of address, and life fawking sucks). Dude the tellers are not there to solve your problems ... just fill out the change of address form and stop giving her grief about how stupid this shit is.

Meanwhile teller two now has some dude with his passport form in his hand ... uh-oh ... that's going to be a wait there. Teller one is still trying to explain to the irate dude how change of address works and how his mail will take at least 5-10 days to get routed properly to his mothers' place. hat was that for ... he's taking a hen shit, teller two is working on a passport form, and all I want to do is send this package that I already have neatly taped, addressed, and have my insurance form and delivery confirmation filled out. Siiigh.

OK so I finally get out of the post office and need to hit the bank to cash a couple checks I got for my birthday. Holy crap ... NO ONE is in line at the bank on a Thursday. I must be dreaming! I walk right up to the teller sure as shit I would see the next window please sign pop up. Nope ... in and out of the bank in less than 5 minutes ... wooohoooooo because I hate standing in line at the bank more than the DMV! LMFAO

OK I take the neph home, unload the car and get home in time to change my clothes and head out for coffee with Mr Kevlar! It was a nice time but OMG he's a chain smoker from hell! The day was a bit dreary so my baby did not look her best, but Oh Well! I left Mr Kevlar and got home in time to take a twenty minute power nap before heading out to work AGAIN! LOL

Today .... aaaah yes todaaaaaaay!

Today was my nephew Franky's class day ceremony and luncheon. Mom and I get there at 9am only to find out it was not starting until 9:30am (my nephew texted me to tell me 9am). No biggie ... we'll get a good seat!

The ceremony lasted a little over an hour and then mom and I went home so that I can take the beast for a quick walk and pee then head out to the class day luncheon. the luncheon was very nice and the kids were gawking at the place it was at. Salvatore's Italian Gardens. Good food, but OMG the place is busy as shit and I don't mean with people. It is decorated very ornately and with all this poof and frill and Italian stuff complete with statues of Roman gods and a bust of Julius Caesar. It's a bit over the top for m liking, but did I mention the food is good! LOL

We ate like pigs, or at least I know I did since I neglected to have breakfast let alone a cup of coffee. Mom and I left Salvatore's around 1:15 and got home by 1:45 at which time I let the beast out to do poopie pee while I changed my clothes for work (yep still eight hours to go to the end of my crazy ass week), and at 2pm I laid on my sofa, set my cell phone to ring at 2:20 and took at twenty minute nap because my ass was toast.

Tonight I will get home a drop dead on my bed. The mess in my house from me running in and out, changing from these clothes to those clothes on the fly, feeding the animals on the fly, and showering in a rush will all have to wait until sometime tomorrow after I wake up sometime after noon! Hahahahahaha

So how was your week!

I swear I will catch up with everyone ... but this is what had me scarce this week!
