Disgusted.

I am SO disgusted with our country right now.  Next week, my husband is only getting half a paycheck because they can't stop arguing long enough to work out their stupid budget.  If they don't reach an agreement in time for the May 1st paycheck, neither of us will get paid.

Between the rising prices of gas (I put $80 into our truck & it is only 3/4 full) & a half paycheck, I'm so stressed out.

& what bothers me the most isn't us not getting money.  It's the people who are overseas fighting for this insanity, whose families don't even know if their spouse/parent is safe, who are only getting half a paycheck.  THAT is unfair.

My heart goes out to everyone effected by this.  I hope they are able to come to a conclusion soon- no one deserves this.  I think it's ridiculous that those assholes in Congress (pardon my language) will still get paid no matter what.  Way to look out for the guy keeping you safe, jerk.

I lost 2 pounds!


(I'm ignoring the fact that it's probably water weight)

On another note, I put on the jeans I wore to my wedding rehearsal 3 years ago the other day.  I could button them & zip them.  They looked TERRIBLE.  But I got them on. :)
