The Daily Peeve / Rant

[Tradd]

The drivers on the daily commute lately are about ready to make me lose it. People making tight lane changes at high speed, withOUT blinkers. I've lost count of the times I've had to slam on my brakes.

Drivers around here - in the far northern Philadelphia 'burbs - seem to be getting crazier, too. I had three near-misses yesterday just driving a few miles to Ace Hardware, then to the library and back home. Maybe ten miles total.

I am having trouble breathing well today due to baby's position, so of course the big brothers are attached tommy stomach and refuse to let go.

I hate having bum knees, feet and hands. Everything hurts all the time and I can't get anything done or it will make it worse.

Texting drivers. Where's Mr. M's club when you need it.

Bed rest! One week and one day until I am full term.

I was hoping we could get through the day without endless droning motors, but no.

Those itsy bitty labels stuck on fruit. The ones that peel off easily are bad enough but some of them are put on with liquid cement and the skin of the fruit is damaged in trying to get the blasted thing off.

I was really peeved Saturday afternoon when someone's yard guy started mowing. As I was muttering about retired people and taking care of such things during the week, I realized it was my yard guy out there.

I hate the way he does it, too. He has several customers within a few blocks, so first he mows every yard and then he comes back with the string trimmer maybe two hours later and does all the yards again. Forget taking a nap after he shows up.

And why don't I fire him? I did that one year and the new guy didn't use a string trimmer at all. He tried to do the same job with a riding mower and ran into the house, the shed, some flower pots, and broke a small Rubbermaid bin where I stored my garden tools.

The only answer is to get rid of the grass, and I'll still have to listen to the neighbors' yard guys.
