What's Bothering You?

its so hard to go back to my hometown and be confronted with the place my childhood went so terribly wrong. a while ago i requested my govt documents from when i was in foster care and they didnt even have those records, but they had 1100 pages of records from everything but foster care and its been a hard but vindicating read. apparently to get the docs on when i was in care itself i need to request it from another department. its scary but since i have foggy memories of my childhood i think its important to my healing.
 
I wanted to make chocolate cupcakes for Valentine day but forgot to buy the ingredients....
I wanted to go to the store to buy them but I have to fill important papers first and I have already procrastinated too much...and it's late...
I wanted to work on those important papers giving me so much anxiety but someone decided to do a solo of pans just behind me and I can't concentrate anymore. Each time I use the family computer or TV, there is someone who suddenly decide to pass the vacuum cleaner, unload the dishwasher, or just make as much noise as possible.
 
I haven't talked with someone in a year and we started talking last week. I hate to admit that I'm a boring fella, and I'm no longer receiving replies or even a thumbs up. Chatted for fifteen minutes and then no replies afterward.

Maybe next year we could make it twenty minutes.
 
I went to my doctor's appointment to see about my ankle. Didn't break any bone or anything, but I will need to do specific exercises for five weeks and put something cold on it each day.
Only problem is, I need to buy this stretchy pull thing and I currently don't have any money until the end of the month.

Maybe I should've mentioned that to the doctor, but I dunno if he could've helped in anyway.

I had also really wanted to focus on exercise this year, but it hasn't started at all well, because of this ankle I couldn't do certain things.
 
The glasses store said they had my glasses ready now but when I went to pick them up they weren't even open. So I wasted time going there for nothing.
Aw sorry that happened! Hopefully you can get them soon! I had that happen before with a doctors appointment that was like an hour away. They didn't call or send an email or anything. I just arrived only to realize they had to close the office that day due to their power being out. You would think they would inform others. I had to reschedule it for another day and then they tried to hit me with a fine for rescheduling so late. So I never went back.
 
My family is bothering me, particularly my mom. We just got into a disagreement and it's still upsetting me even though I'm pretending it's not. So if you don't know, I got a dog back in December and I'm trying to get out of the house and socialize him as much as possible. Before I got him, I was always in my room, door locked and not really going out doing anything, which bothered my mom. So when I got the dog, I have been trying to get out of the house, more of my dog's sake than mine.

Side note, we own a catering business so we are all over town and my sister lives in another city in the county but it's a good 45 minute drive to her house from ours. Where I used to work at is situated in an outdoor mall which is about 20 to 30 minutes away depending on traffic. My sister is always asking for help with her kids, she's a widower. Family jumps through hoops to run to her house to help her. My family has no problems running all over town for catering jobs. And my mom drives for Lyft and Uber. We only have one car. Putting this information here gives you a better picture of why I'm annoyed.

Today I asked my mom if a few times a week, can she drop me and my dog off and pick me up at the outdoor mall I used to work at so I can walk around with him and he can see and smell different sights that aren't the neighborhood or the Walmart down the street. Well she got into a tangent about it being 'out of the way'. So it's not 'out of the way' to drive 45 minutes over to my sister or drive all over town, some jobs even taking over 2 hours away, but it's out of the way to drop me off at the damn mall. She was like 'you can go to places closer' which is true. But I do go to those closer places, multiple times a week. I just want some different sights for him.

It's like they are telling me that all of their business (and my sister) are more important than me and what I want or need to do. It's not a nice feeling knowing that stuff that's important to me isn't being taken seriously. Again, these people are the same people who were naggy and bothered that I never left the house before. And now that I'm trying to do just that, it's a problem. I need to start teaching myself that I can't count on my parents for rides. They are great parents, don't get me wrong, but when it comes down to the totem pole of whose stuff is most important, mine is at the way bottom.
