Please Please show up at my house. You can do nothing all day long for me Big Grin

I am closing soon on a house Clap and am BROKE!!!... Does anyone remember when Target goes 75% on bedding, furniture, or rugs.. I see the housewares with the dishes have gone 50%, so I am watching some sets to go 75%.. All I have is a couch i bought 2yrs ago and a dining room set. I also bought a tv stand a couple of months ago during the last 75% off furniture run. ( I should have looked at other pieces, but I did not know this would happen).

Omg she sounds like a monster-in-law alright, makes mine seem not so bad. I'm curious where she's from?

It's a choice, she is determined to be "helpless". My parents, grandparents, and so on were farmers, so very active and need to be doing something. It drives me crazy, to even think about sitting/laying in bed all day watching "Judge" shows. After a day or two, I'd want out!

I have most of my stuff in those plastic shoebox size items and larger stuff in the big plastic tubs. Non beauty stuff is in my pantry, shampoo/soap/body wash is in my bathroom closet. My pantry is stuffed- I'm overflowing a bit with free cat food, lol.


My mom is one of those people. She wants to be sick so she doesn't have to do anything. She stays inside all day, never gets up from the couch...and wonders why she's depressed. Not that I think getting up and doing something is an instant cure for depression, but it helps! And so do drugs! Yay drugs!
My DH has the same argument with her, because she can't figure out why she is so depressed either. What I can figure out is why I am the one with a Vitamin D deficiency. She has one window, which has blinds and an air conditioner in it, and never drinks anything but coke and water (no dairy at all)! I think at this point, if she went out into the sunlight, she would melt laugh out loud

My FIL is like your MIL and it drives me batty.

Also, it has been suggested a time or two that what I'm experencing are panic/anxiety attacks. I thought there was no way because why all of a sudden would that happen? I have no major stress, no real issues, what's wrong with me?

Today, for the first time since this all started, I drove about 3 miles down the road to get dinner. I could feel it all starting again. Like a state of panic.

Why? Why only when I drive? Why all of a sudden and what do I do to help it? I tried focusing on my daughter in the back seat. I talked to her. I tried looking around, thinking of fun things, thinking of my kids. All I could do was hold it together and get my butt back home. The entire time terrified without any reason. This is horrible.

Is she bi-polar? Or manic depressive

My store has some furniture (dressers and headboards, I know of) at 50%. If you need some bath furniture, I may know of a few coupons for you Wink

L.A. (aka lower Alabama) She is a monster-in-law (this is the same one that had me pick up my own Demerol and pick her up some chicken after my Spinal Tap), but she helps pay some bills, and keeps to herself, unless she needs something done for her, so we stick it out, for now.

Her diagnosis is dysthymia, so just a chronic low grade depression. Just a neither here nor there type of thing. I think she wishes it was more serious at times (more serious=more sympathy from others). Which, of course, leads to me think there's a bit of a personality disorder in there somewhere.

Gee, thanks mom for passing your craziness on to me.

Are you just worrying so much that you're panicking? Like, the more you try to not worry about something, the more you end up freaking?

Speaking of ThermaCare, they are on clearance at my T for $4.18 and there is a $3/1 IP out there. If you need to pay for them. Us Publix peeps have been getting paid to take them for over a month! Plus, it's in the NEXT Green Advantage Flyer too! I think people are running out of room for them, I consistently find them on the shelves now.

That's not even all the ThermaCare I had, I sent some to my mom, since she has hip problems. I figure if nothing else, when it gets cold out, I can use them as "warming patches" in the morning at work (Target doesn't turn on the AC or Heat before the store opens). Another weird side effect of my Lyme, I have a severe cold intolerance. I can't even touch stuff in the freezer without gloves or using my kids (if I'm in a store). My fingers start to hurt, like pins and needles.

I'm just glad I don't live in WI anymore, I wouldn't make it thru the winters!

Another thing I forgot to mention before (I'm driving my DH crazy, I must be getting sick, I can't even finish sentences when I am talking!)

I had one of my Free Sobe MQs I was sent in the mail from the Heads & Tails game. I used it with a Sobe TQ, and it was beepless woot

I feel like 10-second-Tom today Wink

Wow Jamie OMG I recall someone in here telling me that when they do gs's they just have the shelves set up in their garage like that rather than tables, etc. and then can just keep it that way and not have all the set up/tear down....was that you?? I could see how that could work veeerrrry well! I don't have nearly as much stuff, but I think I decided I'd rather donate than gs, just gives me more satisfaction I guess, I dunnoLMAO

Does this happen only when you leave home? You're not developing agoraphobia, are you? Hope you find a solution to whatever it is!
