Got blamed for something I have no control over again. I reminded myself I don't have that much power and I knew hp was right there with me. I didn't handle it perfect, but pretty good.
When will the tests be over with and I can get a final grade? lol
LOL is right!! Some days we get tested and some days we don't and pretty good is a passing grade cause I don't need perfect. Expecting perfection is another sign that I'm setting myself up for another resentment against __________. Fill in the blank. Yay!! Buick you passed now go have some real fun. ((((hugs))))
I know that powerless feeling...my car recently needed $2000 worth or repairs (several different things all within a week of each other)...I need another $1000 of work to fix the air bag which i'm putting off temporarily. Today it won't start...I'm thinking ok, new battery needed, not too bad financially...then the mechanic tells me it' s the battery AND the alternator....$600....I don't have the money right now, I'm charging everything and will have to take about 5-7K out of a retirement account to get caught up....not a catastrophe all said and done...I'm still working etc....but talk about feeling powerless.....
Tonight is worse. I was called a curseword and I just want to cry. Because of something I had no control over something happened that is still being blamed on me. Enough.
thx everyone. getting blamed is so stupid. now there is a serious result and of course I still get blamed because it would be too much of a burden for that person to look at himself and think about it and maybe start preventing things from having a negative result in the first place.
i'm not a cook, laundry person, dishwasher, babysitter, plumber, accountant, and everything else and for sure not a caretaker anymore. seriously. and not a bank either.
