Well after the last post I was hoping that there would be nothing more to say about K but that doesn't seem to be the case. I really don't want to keep talking about her but she keeps popping up in my life and then last night it was my dream!!!! But before we get to that lets get a little re-cap.
So she left on the 20th and should have been ale to make it in about 3-4 days. She was loaded down with 5 dogs, 6 cats, a lamb and a bird. Yeah I know that is a lot of animals. She had her little truck and a U-Haul for all of her stuff and could only go about 35 I think she said so she wouldn't be making great time and then have to stop to potty everyone. I thought I would hear from her later on that day just to say that things were going ok, or at least the next morning. I heard nothing until Mon and that was because her friend D called me to see if I had head from her!!! Three days and no one here's anything. The only reason D heard from her is because she needed money!!! I couldn't believe it when she told me that. We spent the rest of the week trying to guess where she was and how the weather was effecting her drive.
She never showed up until New Year's Eve. She called, I think, on Christmas Eve to say that she was stopping for the day at another friends house that was about 5 hours away from D. Again no call to either one of us. Personally I would have found a way to call someone and say "Ok, this is where I am, I'm going to stop for a couple of hours and stretch my legs and the dogs legs, and then should be back on the road by this time. The weather is doing this so it's slow going, blah blah blah." It's a common courtesy that you tell people where you are especially when you are driving thru 4 states!!!!
Anyways I got a call from D on New Years Eve that she finally showed up and then left all the animals in their crates, didn't feed them, etc and then left for the night and never came back. I had a dream, nightmare really, that she showed up here with her animals. That is so scary for me. I can't believe I had that dream, I must of had something really bad to eat/drink last night for that one to happen.

Good bye K
This might be my last post about K for awhile. She finally moved today. I am a little sad that she is gone but on the other hand I'm happy. She is a little hard to take sometimes. I don't mind helping someone out when hey need it but I have other things to do during the day other then talking on the phone. I mean really, who wants to be on the phone for a good 2 hours? She bought herself a headset because she was on the phone so much. LOL.
She has been trying to move for the past two months, trying to miss the storms up north, but was finally able to get the money and everything else situated now. There was a lot of drams (as always) surrounding the whole thing. When we talked about it last month it was to find out what I wanted to do about the money she owed me. Personally I want the money not the camera that she bought (and all the extras along with it), personally I don't think she needed to buy all the stuff she did buy but that's another pot for another day. She said that she was trying to adopt out the dogs and the lamb and cats (remember all of them?) but I don't remember seeing ads or signs out for them anywhere (again a post for another day).
She had called me to tell me that she was leaving the angel trumps for me. Great I'll be by in the next day or so to get them. Then she went on, for 45 minutes, telling me about how hard it was to pack everything and that the freeze the other night changed all her plans, etc all while I am trying to tell her that I am at school and working and I need to get off the phone.
I feel like I should be upset that she is leaving and had such a hard time her and then all the BS that her quote-unquote friend did today while she was trying to leave. It's just a headache talking to her. I'm kinda happy because now she won't be here bothering me, calling me all the time, and wanting me to come over and do stuff. She kept talking up us moving into the house that she was in and there is no way that I would even think about that, not after this happened. I was there today to "help" but still trying to get away. She even asked me if I could follow her to the tunnel (which is only a 30 minute drive) because of some stuff going on with him but I have other things to do.
I hate to point fingers and say "you should have done this and you should have done that" but if she had gotten out of the house more, even just going walking, and tone down the paranoia she might have made some friends. She had no one to call but me and her church. That, in my opinion, is sad. You have one person you can call in a town that you have lived in for 3 yr.

I'm sick leave me alone!!!!!!!!
I got sick on Friday and was trying to sleep. I woke up this way. I felt bad on Thursday and didn't finish my nil appt. I mean I got all the way there and then left. I felt really bad to because I love my nail lady. I think I've said how much I like my nail lady but I'm getting off the topic.
Since I was feeling bad when I woke up I knew that I was just going to take Savie to school and then come home to sleep. I should have known that that was not going to be possible. I came home and decided that since i was home alone I would watch some of my movies alone. I had my laptop turned off, and my movies in, took a couple of cold pills and then laid down. I was ready to enjoy the movie and the quiet. and then. she called. Why you ask? Why did I answer the phone? Because I was hoping that she would realize that I was sick and needed to sleep and wasn't in the mood for a long, long, long, talk on the phone about what her dogs are doing and the cat is climbing up the wall, and the lamb is baa-ing to be let in, etc. I should have just let it go.
She calls everyday for nothing. To talk. I have other things that I need to do during the day. I'm sure that it's great and everything that she can talk while she cleans the yard, does a load of laundry but I would like to be able to do that stuff and talk to my daughter at the same time, not be on the phone with er. I don't care about the dang dog barking at some guy walking by, or that the cat is pregnant again, or that the guy she got the truck from is being weird. I don't know what any of that has to do with me. i have a life it's kinda sad that she doesn't. Instead of being able to sleep for at least 2 hours I spent 45 minutes on the phone with her and then tried to sleep.
Every day is like this. how many different ways can you possible be nice about not wanting to talk to someone? I work every morning so most of the time I don't answer my phone unless it's hubby. I don't want to be pulled away from the kids when I'm there. But I will have to find a way to stop this calling every couple of hours a day just to talk.

For a person who is on a tight budget she always seems to call me just to talk. Her number is blocked so she has to unblock it to call me at home and it shows "unavailable" when she calls my cell, but she called me today and I knew she was out and about with someone else so I thought she was stuck somewhere and needed help, otherwise I would have waited to answer it. But I did. and it was just to tell me she a truck (is test driving it), got insurance for it, on her way to Douglas, etc. Why are you wasting you cell minutes, when your a pre-paid phone for that matter, just to tell me something you can tell me when you get home? That makes no sense.

another rant
I hate to just keep harping on the same thing but K is really annoying. You would think that after a day or so of not talking to me she would get the hint that I don't have the time, or desire, to sit and talk on the phone for hours at a time. And it's not just with her, it's in general. I think the last time I spent more than 20 minutes on the phone talking to someone I was on hold. Yes I know that sounds mean and everything but I have a life. I have other things to do with my day. My day does not revolve around a bunch of animals in my house. I have a daughter to feed, pay attention to, clean up after, dishes to wash, clothes to wash/dry/fold/put away, etc.
Yesterday was Easter, time for family to be together doing whatever they do. I got 3 emails and 2 phone calls from her just "saying hi". Today I have gotten 4 phone calls, 1 email and 1 IM. Really?!?!?!? What part of this is hard to understand that I am busy or off doing something else? Do I have to actually say it? I must because she is just not getting the hints.
As far as I know I am one of 4 people in town that she talks to, then there are the few people from her church, and her friends from Oregon or wherever. From what I understand she spends a lot of time on the phone to the point that she bought a headset. Maybe it's just me bit that seems like a lot of time to be spending on the phone when your not working or looking for work. I think that time could be spent doing something else but that's just my opinion.

Excuse me while I yawn
you would think I was K is a high maintenance person, this is something that I learned months ago but because I have a very hard telling people no, I can't get away from her. I feel guilty for not helping her (ummmm religious or something) or listening to her but when she goes on and on......and on......and on about the same thing for 30 minutes it makes it a little hard to listen let alone care about what is going on with her. I know it doesn't sound nice but it's hard to listen to someone go on and on about having sick puppies in the house when I'm trying to get my daughter dressed. And yes I've said it to her that I need to go and take care of things in my house
She doesn't get it. She never will. Everything that she does or had is better than it is here. I may have said this before but she doesn't listen. She seems to think that AZ is worse then OR, that people don't know what they are doing here. A couple of good examples
A couple of months ago a transformer box blew up across the street from her house, nothing big, just a big spark didn't even have to call the fire dept. Her response? "I guess they just don't make them like they do in X"
I'm sorry, they weren't made here, some company somewhere made them so it's not like the city of Bisbee made them and put them up.
The weather here changes fast, especially during monsoon season I've learned. Well she checks the weather and it says one thing and then she comes back a couple of hours later and it's changed. "Oh great, they changed the weather on me again, typical."
Um isn't that what weather does? Change?
Those are just two that I can think of off the top of my head but there will always be more, lol.

In her defense,lol
OK just a little background on K. She thinks she is the authority on just about everything. Now she hasn't come right out and said it but you can tell from the tone of her voice to what she says. Most of the time I let it go, when she's talking about dog stuff she does know more than me. She ran a kennel for years and it was a really good one from what I've seen picture-wise but then she has moments like this.
During the Super Bowl she called me to talk, normally I wouldn't have answered the phone but I knew she was going to call. Anyways she asked me how the game was going and I told her then she said "Well I should have called my friend in, he's an hour ahead of us. He can tell me the final score of the game since the game is almost over there."
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that's what she said. Now remember that she doesn't watch football, or any sports for that matter, but c'om. It's a LIVE game, live being the most important word there. It took me 10 minutes to make her understand that it was a LIVE game, played here in AZ, and that the reason the game started an hour earlier for the guy is because of the time changes. It took a lot for me to not to just yell it into the phone. That conversation alone has taken a lot of the wind out of her sails.

Ok so K has done it again. She is a big advocate for animals right which is fine but she needs to control it. She already has a pit bull of her own, 2 hairless dogs, and 2 cats. Well of course when you have a male/female cat your bound to get kittens right? right. So now there are 3 cats. Then she got another male kitten that was about 4 weeks old so now there are 4 cats, but wait...it gets better. well the female went in heat again and just had kittens......again!!! So now there are 6 cats in the house along with 2 puppies and a pit bull. Then there is mother, who has a ranch outside of town. She has sheep and dogs (that's where K got the dogs from)and we've been out there quite a few times. Well the herd is pregnant and have been having babies for the past month, since the beginning of December. It's been great for S but....can you tell where I'm going with this? Yes, now she has lambs. The mothers have "abandoned" them so she says. I haven't been there to witness it so I can't say what is going on there. So let's go back to the animal count.
1 Pit Bull
2 Hairless puppies
6 cats
2 lambs
3 fish (yeah sorry about not mentioning that one sooner)
Ok so now that I've given you a little bit of a background let me get to what has happened today. There is a ranch outside of town, I know a lot of ranch's around here, that we've been to this past week. Now I don't know a whole lot about horses, never owned one so what would I know if an animal is underfed? Oh I know maybe because I can see their ribs!!!!!!! Now she's had a horse, that much I know what but what happened with it, I don't know. But here's my thing. We drove by it and she was going on and on about how the horses are just so skinny and the person is doing a horrible job taking care of them and that she couldn't believe that I would go to a place like that. She knew that we had just been there a couple of days ago so why keep going? We walked around the ranch, feed the horses, saw everything that was there.
She didn't hid anything, and was very friendly, the lady at the ranch. She was very nice. There were lost of horses there, about 10, and a bunch of burros to. None of them were really shy, not anymore then I would expect if 3 kids came screaming to the fence, lol. And I told K about this. Told her that none of the animals looked sick, hungry, etc. And she says, well they must have put them away. That pissed me off. I was very tempted to pull the car over, yank her out and make her go look at the horses. Don't tell me what I saw and what is going on. I told her that she really can't judge what other people are doing at their places unless she goes out there. Was I wrong for saying that? I don't think so.
She complains about the neighborhood dog and messes with her 3 dogs, and even gone so far as to jump the fence and mount the female puppy. Don't tell me about it, go say something to the guy (she sees him every morning let the dog out) or call animal control or the cops. Make a complaint. Do something about it but quit complaining to me about it when you don't want to hear what I have to say. It's just dumb.
