Closing In On Christmas

My life has taken on a new dimension with being a manager. I really don't like being a manager. It really is hard at times. We had to fire a stylist the other day and it really has upset me. I can't get over how dishonest some people are. I can't get over how catty some women are. I really am not in the greatest of moods to be blogging, but I just am so frustrated. I don't want to be working my guts out and have to cover shifts. I can't do it with my kids. And now we are starting into the Christmas break and my kids will be home. They will be home with their father, but I can't leave them alone right now. They don't get along too great at the moment. I think teenagers need their parents more in the teen years because that is when they can really get into trouble. I want my kids to grow up to be good citizens, and to be kind to each other. They are in the teenage mode where they take it out on each other. I can't stand it. I have to chaperon them all the time. And then with work being the way it is, I some times want to run away. I am happy, it is just that I am stressed with all the holiday stuff and I want December to be over. I don't want to ruin Christmas, it is just so hard some times to get into the spirit with all the crap in the world.
My knee is killing me because I have so much weight on it and then it is arthritic and it hurts. I can't walk the dogs like I want to because of the pain. I am going to be getting my weight off, and when I do I think that the knee should calm down. It hurts really bad. I am probably needing knee replacement surgery. It's called getting old. Well, I have to go get ready for work. Yeah! Not!
