I Am Tired Of…
I am tired of:
- The airlines changing their fee structure every week
- NBA players arguing every call
- Hearing about GREAT companies having layoffs
- Gas prices going up
- Athletes wanting to renegotiate their contracts
- Pain, suffering and illness, especially when it strikes family or friends.
~~~ Your turn. ~~~
What are you tired of?
I look forward hearing your thoughts.

Duplicating my efforts constantly
People who whine and mope around for weeks instead of thinking positively or moving forward.
have you ever just wanted to tell someone, GET OVER IT, MOVE ON????

venting is always good and I try to couple it with a solution to move me in a positive direction…. So this posting is from my own bubble world
Gripe #1: Gas prices…. ugh
I’m fortunate to only work a few miles from my office AND I typically work from home a few days a week (better situation than it is for most)
Gripe #2: Bikinis (I hate this time of year just based on this)
I wear one anyways in hopes that I’m reflecting “good self esteem” for my both kids.
Gripe #3: The economy
I’ll keep this short… I avoid the news and trust that my immediate family is in good financial standings and we should still be ok post recession…
Gripe #4: Drunk Drivers.There is absolutely no positive spin here - it simply pisses me off!?!?!?!
Gripe #5: Parents who constantly yell at their kids (i am not an angel by any means in respect to this and perhaps my gripe stems more from self reflection that i need to not yell so darn much)
That feels good… I could go on & on but this should do it for one day….
Thanks Merrill

I am tired of politicians!!

I too am tired of politicians, liars, people who cannot drive, or who put make-up, read, shave, text and/or read emails (even tho it is now against the law) or other ridiculous things while trying to drive; most importantly people without integrity.

Cancer
Chemo
Recurrance
Feeling physically awful and having to fake feeling good
What do I feel good about? Like the line by Marty Feldman
in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN:
“It could be worse — could be raining!”

“Change” without substance.
“Gun Free” Zones.
Not drilling in ANWR.

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired!
1.I am tired of always catching myself telling younger friends how things were ‘in the good ole days’.
2.I am tired of election years that feature news channels which parrot the party line (Fox-Republican CNN-Democrats)
2a.I am tired of hearing the same old overused terms of ‘tax and spend’ ‘pork barrel’ ‘trickle down economics’ ‘Politics as Usual’ ‘Neocons’ ‘Economic Recovery’ ‘Withdraw’ ‘Amend’ ‘Cut’ ‘Downgrade’ and any other phrase we have been hearing every four years since time began.
3.I am tired of trying to please everybody but myself
4.I am tired of doing the right thing and having little to show for it.
5.I am tired of being told what the so-called ‘American Dream’ is supposed to be.
6.I am tired of athletes who cheat.
7.I am tired of Brett Favre and his decision to unretire.
8.I am tired of witnessing a blatant East Coast bias whenever I watch the sports news. Texas always gets the shaft.
9.I am tired of billionaire owners who argue with millionaire athletes
10.I am tired of friends’ failed relationships that begin under a false (sexual) pretense.
11.I am tired of secrets.
12.I am tired of denial.
13.I am tired of relentless text messages about beer pong and cougar hunting at 4 am.
14.I am tired of people who put ranch dressing on anything. A Texas thing to be sure…
15.I am tired of freedoms that continue to be eroded and taken away bit by bit since 9-11-01.
Thanks Merrill. I was actually in a good mood when I began.
Peace!

Willie,
Thats a pretty big list. I agree with alot of your list but the blatant east coast bias on sports and ranch dressing I can’t agree with you on!
Stay well.

I am tired of…
Being strung along only to find out that I am not the one.
Being more concerned with other people’s happiness then my own.
My dedication being ignored
Being stressed out

I’m going to try to be positive and not complain (Dale Carnegie rule)…
Instead here’s a link to help with Merrill’s first issue on airline fees:

Enjoy

Karen,
I like that chart - very easy to see and understand what is going on with the different airlines.
Thanks for sharing.
