my theory is that boops are so great because they are fullfilling two very deep-seated desire of tumblr users: 1. being able to interact with your mutuals without actually having to talk to each other and 2. being very annoying

Hot As Hell

The temps were in the 90s today. It was hot and muggy. Upstairs, the girls are cooking. It's near 100 in their rooms.

We can't put our acs in because the old wiring can't handle it. Also, the windows are very old and most won't open.

My youngest has a ceiling fan but it's not helping. @helly-watermelonsmellinfellon has nothing. We need pedestal fans, especially for the girls. I'm worried about them. It's way too hot upstairs.

The Fit Hit The Shan Again

It never ends. My youngest was going to run to the store for me. She came back in to inform me that the van won't start. She called her sperm donor only to get yelled at. It's not her fault. She filled the tank, put a quart of oil in it, and had no issues with it yesterday when she took it to Dover Motor Speedway for the NASCAR race.

Her father is responsible for the upkeep which he hasn't been doing. My 17 drives a mini van that has no power steering. That girl has muscle.

@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon another day more drama

Woohoo! 🎉🥳🎈

Let me first state that I have horrendous luck. Murphy's Law rules my life. Which is why I am shocked and happy right now.

I am a chocoholic with no shame. I can eat chocolate ever day and still want more.

I have been trying to limit my sugar intake but sugar free chocolate is not something I was able to have. I am severely allergic to all sugar alcohols which is what sweetens the majority of sugar free chocolate.

Then one day I discovered ChocZero on Tik Tok. They don't use sugar alcohol in any thing, and their chocolate is divine.

To make a long story short, I won a $50 gift card. I am so pumped. I already put my order in.

@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon check it out. I'm not a loser after all.

MURPHY AND HIS LAW CAN GO POUND SAND!!!

Not only is my sciatica rearing it's hideous head again, but my RLS is acting up on my left leg. This means both of my legs are killing me. FML

@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon I need a vacation from my pain.

F*ck My Life Sideways

The good news is that I finally got all the parts to fix my Acer Nitro 5. The bad part is that the charging port needs to be soldered in.

So, I used a tiny bit of electrical tape to anchor it, but that is not a permanent fix. I need to take it to a computer repair shop. I just can't afford it right now.

My laptop is my gateway to life. I am disabled and homebound and don't go anywhere. So now I am grounded for the unforeseeable future.

Every time I try to save money, it blows up in my face.

@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon I tried. Now I'm going to go have myself a good cry

F'ing Heat

I just saw the forecast for today. It's going to be in the 80s. I don't handle the heat well. In fact, it makes me very sick and my body shuts down.

Unfortunately, we do have air conditioners but we can't use them . This house is 100+ years old with only 1 outlet in each room. You can't plug an AC unit in an extension cord but the old wiring just can't take it as well.

It gets so friggin' hot in the house, and @helly-watermelonsmellinfellon tells me that the upstairs is a sauna.

The bottom line is that we need fans but we just don't have the funds right now to do it. We need food. Even if I had the money, I would have to spend it on food.

I'm sick of needing help. Just for once, I'd like to get through a month with no issues.

$75

The yearbooks at my youngest's school are $75. WTF!?!?!?! It's not even big.

Unfortunately, I had to tell my youngest offspring that there's no way I can afford to purchase this year's yearbook. She's really bummed cus she's in it a lot between marching band, concert band, and clubs.

I hate being as broke as a joke with no hope.

Lousy Vehicle Inspection

We took the van back to be inspected again after fixing the problem that failed it. Good news is that it passed. The bad news is that it took my last $100.

I am now as broke as a joke with no hope. I had to take my food money and money for my Internet bill to get that lousy van up to par to pass inspection. It was an act of God that had it pass, just saying.

@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon I knew I get forced into paying for all of it.

Thank you @helly-watermelonsmellinfellon and everyone who got me to 1000 reblogs!

FML

We took the van to get inspected. I was adamant that it would not pass. Dave was so sure. Guess who was right.

Keep in mind that I am paying for it again. This was an added expense which cut out my food money.

On the other issue: I am currently working without my laptop. The charging port came lose, and I can't charge it. I bought the part and am going to try to replace it myself. I can't afford to take it somewhere.

Same crap, different day.
