The word of the day

HATE

I know, it's an ugly word, but sometimes it's necessary.

I hate poor grammar. It really doesn't take much to double check what you wrote. Sometimes I make mistakes, but usually I try to fix them. Once in a blue moon doesn't kill me, but when people chronically make errors it makes me twitch.

I hate picking up small pieces of paper all over the house. *cough* MADDIE *cough*

I hate Zsu Zsu pets. Immensely.

I hate Maddie's Barbie house. When you open and close it, it makes a sound that is similar to a cross between a baby bear dying and nails on a chalkboard.

I hate cleaning the bathtub, which is why my kids take showers against their will. They (Maddie anyway) prefer baths.

I hate dogs. I hate dog barking.

I hate allergy season. My husband and my son have the worst allergies ever. This time of year is the worst.

I hate insomnia. When you can't sleep, you think. Thinking is bad. Thinking keeps you awake. Thinking causes insomnia and insomnia causes thinking. Sounds bad. Hate.

I hate shoes. Why can't we all go barefoot all the time.

I hate my knee.

I hate sticky floors.

I hate wet floors that make my socks wet.

I hate accidentally vacuuming up something, hearing it rattle around for a few minutes and wondering if it was important, then just giving up and hoping it wasn't.

I hate listening to my 12yo whine about his problems because I would give anything to go back to 12 and have to suffer through 12yo problems rather than 35yo problems.
