Stressed!

Morning guys. I have started writing today’s blog about eight times but I have to keep stopping myself. I am feeling extremely stressed right now about finances (I know you all hear me on that one!), about Mat’s lack of support in me telling his douche of a brother to pay us the rent he owes us, the family drama bubbling away because of said brother dribbling shit to the rest of the family, my frustration at no one making said brother accountable and generally everything going to hell in a hand basket thanks to this immature douche of a brother-in-law. If I write about these topics it is only going to cause a whole lot of drama because, as Mat pointed out, “My family doesn’t deal with stuff like your family does”. He’s right, our families are very different. My family is healthy whereby if there is a problem, you identify it, you tell the other party they are being a total dickhead, you hash it out, solve the problem and move on happy and loving each other just as much, if not more, than before. Mat and his family are not quite as direct whereby they pretend there is no problem at all and deal with absolutely nothing. Polar opposites. But as I said, I am not going to talk about these topics because it will just cause drama so instead, I am going to make a few suggestions on how to deal with stress...

-         Drink. Drink lots. Drink wine, vodka, gin, Listerine, whatever is handy. Just drink.

-         Scream and shout at the scammers who call you from “Windows Support Team”. Don’t hold back, these bastards are trying to scam you out of your hard earned money. Scream until the veins pop out of the side of your neck.

-         Engage in a little emotional eating. Grab a tub of Nutella and a spoon. Not that pissy little jar you bought because it was on special, I’m talking about the decent sized jar you could lose a kitten in.    

-         Start smoking. If you are like me and literally vomit after inhaling a cigarette (true story, I actually turned green and vomited. Eeeeeewww) then just think of the benefits on your waist line. You could lose 10kg by Christmas.

Hope you find these suggestions helpful. Enjoy your stress free day. I’m off to begin chain smoking whilst making some Nutella and Listerine soup.
