The Shower Curtain.

 The other day my hubby and the girls decided to get a new shower curtain for the bathrooms even though there was othing wrong with the old ones. For some stupid reason they decided to get a clear, see-thru plastic one for the bathroom on the middle floor, where the bath is, where I have my bath. I was horrified, and it made me feel so exposed, so vulnerable, so naked! Who the hell even thinks of making such a stupid thing anyway; a see-thru clear shower curtain? I mean, seriously, people, WTF? Really? The curtain I'd really want( if I had any choice, any say, and any $$$$) would be, of course, a hippo one, like the one shown here, but of course there's nothing like that around here, only available online and costs ridiculous 75$-150$ plus shipping and ours was only 14$. In any case, both my mother and I objected( the one time we were actually agreed and united on something) and she ordered them to get a new one and either replace it or put it on top of the clear one.

  The kids revolted.

  They're not used to not getting their own way because I'm the only one that ever tries to discipline them but of course I'm always over-ruled by my hubby and mother and so I have no authority and they just laugh and ignore me and I have no one else to back me up and so....except this time it was something that she cared about, got mad over and mattered to her (instead of just me) so she got really mad when they defied her, the same shit that I always get from them all the time every day; the defiance, the back-talk, the insults, the mouthiness, the attitude, the disobedience, the refusal, the sabotage, the disrespect, the rudeness, the boldness, the plotting, etc. and she was furious, steaming mad, majorly stressed-out and going ape-shit crazy and really flipping out on them I thought she was going to implode. I told her that that's what I get all the time and always have to put up with from them and that's why I'm so fed up and now she sees what it's like and what I have to go thru and put up with.

  As it turned out after what seemed like hours of stand-off they finally relented and did it......but the wrong way, just to purposely piss her off and to get the last word: they put the clear one underneath the new beach ocean scene one so we wouldn't be able to see the new one, only it backfired because we still can see it so hahahahahahahahahah.......little assholes.

  As well, Buddy has that lump under his eye again that I think is a fluid-filled cyst or absess. He's had it twice before; in summer and in fall and it eventually pops when he scratches it or I puncture it and it drains and flattens down and eventually goes away so I'm not so worried about it this time, unlike when it first showed up and I worried it might be a tumour. It's itchy though as he's always rubbing it on me, or along the carpet or scratching it with his paw, poor baby.
