One month tomorrow...enter homicidal rage, right on schedule.

I could punch kittens right now (this is only a bad metaphor, kitty people, I promise).

It's another grey crappy January day, the snow melted, revealing much ugliness and dog poop, which is even more depressing than usual as we've decided to put the house on the market and everywhere I look there's something that needs to be cleaned, hauled to the dump, or rehomed/recycled before February 10. And there's nothing my neurotic dogs and I like better than strangers coming to the house to judge us.

The cat threw up on the rug (extra fishy flavor), the puppy mangled my knitting project, and my husband is, if possible, in a worse mood that I am but hey, he still drinks so kindly move to one side...I win the pissitude contest.

I'm not going to drink, I don't really even want to drink, exactly...I just want the next six months behind us because it's going to be a stressathon no matter what ends up happening.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Congrats on a month sober! The stress will be a lot easier to bear if you're sober, believe me.

You can have reasons, or you can have results, but you can't have both.

Hi. I'm a real estate agent. You're not imagining it. Selling your house is really that big a drag. Dig deep for the patience.

Hi Aries, I can relate to what you're feeling, your post was hilarious though, sorry!
I'm about 2 months sober and Everything irritates me. And selling your house, ugh, major stress!! We've sold our own a few times and talk about nightmarish!

When the snow melts here we are surrounded by MUD. I have 3 dogs and I am cleaning puppy paws about 6 times a day, not to mention washing my floors constantly, lol!
So, totally understand the frustration, especially being newly sober. I'm sure you already know though that it would all be much worse hungover!

Hang in there!

My husband is a real estate broker AND we just did this five years ago.

You're absolutely right.
