I chose this prompt from a writer's workshop. I realize that there are so many more important issues to be sick and tired of. I am well aware of that. I am simply choosing to focus on the petty things in my life right now. My brain hurts and I just don't feel like getting very deep. So here goes:
Ten things I am Sick of, in no particular order:
1. The fact that I never seem to be able to stay on top of my housework. Ever...
2. The fact that I can't justify hiring a housekeeper when I am a stay at home Mom:)
3. Kobe Bryant. My husband forces me to watch basketball, so, I'm just sayin. Sick of him.
4. My husband forcing me to watch basketball games, then the highlites of the game, sport-center before we go to bed. Oh yeah, as if that weren't enough, we also listen to sports talk radio in the car. Just so ya know, he read this and is totally fine with me posting this because he knows how much I hate it. I love him and, in spite of his basketball addiction, we've been able to make it work.
5. Flies, flies, and more flies! Our house seems to be the local hotspot for all of the neighborhood flies. As an attempt to fight back, we have resorted to hanging a jar out on the back porch that smells like rotting fecal matter. I'm really not sure which problem is worse.
6. Our dog that likes to run out the front door every chance she gets. Every. Single. Chance.
7. The guilt that I have in knowing that the only reason that she does that is because we never walk her. We're horrible pet owners. Terrible.
8. And then there's the whole weight loss issue. I'm pretty sick of that. Enough said.
9. Feet in general- mine, yours, any ones really. I've never been a big fan of feet.
10. That a certain Bank decided to extend their hours on Saturday as well as open an hour earlier on weekdays. That really chaps my hide.
Well that was fun. I'd love to hear yours...

#1,#2,#5, and since you mentioned it, #9. Can I borrow some of the ones you didn't write? If I have to type out one more sad thought I'll be in the throws of depression for sure. Love ya!
OH MY GOSH that was soooo funny! Good job!! Just wondering...um... how did you get that jar to smell like fecal matter...
Oh and what writers workshop did you take!?
Thanks for the laugh :)
God bless you and all of your "concerns". Love you!
I'm sick of not sleeping past 3am. And the fact the nurses keep calling me an 'older' mother. Hell.O.
Um, yeah I guess I should have clarified. It is a fly trap that we bought and you fill it with this liquid (enter the smell), the flies are atracted to it and then they die. Love ya too, Kathy! Kristi, I feel for you, that is very irritating!!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting! I love your list. I wish I could have a housekeeper. My grandma's house gets lots of flies in summer and a few times a day she busts out the vacuum cleaner and sucks them all up. Fun memory.
I agree with you on #9 feet. I think feet are kind of weird looking; but where would we be without them? I think I will keep mine :)
Well I have a house-keeper-Kathy, that takes care of 1 & 2. I hate all sports, flies, feet, pets and work almost as much as I love to eat. Looks like you're pretty normal in my book.
Of course you know I'm just kidding about one and two:).
I'd like to know more about the writing work shop.
