Default Oy!!!

I'm about to dump a big ol' rant down here so bare with me...

So, my daughter has been with concerns about a health issue with her youngest (my newest grandbaby). Seems she felt it important enough to research and then bring it up to the pediatrician. It was confirmed today that the baby has what's called Pectus Excavatum, otherwise known as, funnel chest. It's where the breastbone grows inward instead of outward and can (in some cases) cause heart and/or lung issues later in life. Right now the baby has a mild case of it and may only have this level but it can increase in seriousness as she begins to go through puberty and adolescent growths. I did a little research into it through the Mayo Clinic's site today while at work and, yes, I do have concerns... of course I would, but where I am really concerned is with my daughter. She tends to get so into the negative of things that it brings her into depressions. Yes we will keep a check on the baby and keep up with the doctors if we notice things changing and they haven't made efforts to do anything but right now... it's my daughter that is my main focus. Ugh!

Then I come home to a note wedged in my mailbox. First thought... the landloard! Nope it was from a complaining neighbor with poor timing and a pathetic attempt at sarcasm. It went something to the affect of:

"Dear 202,

I am asking that you control your need to stomp on the floors. I am a hardworking tenant and I am unable to sleep when this is happening. And, your role-playing is also too loud! Might want to try to control that!

Thanks,
102"

My reply was something to the affect of:

"Although I appreciate your efforts to maintain a quiet atmosphere, you may want to research who you are complaining to first of all. See, my apt "202" is NOT above your 102. In fact my apt is NOT above or below any other apt. I have a two-story apt and it's located over the stairwell and foyer. Furthermore, I am rarely on my first floor and I too am a hardworking tenant so I would appreciate that you get this matter tended to OR we can all take this up with our landlord. Oh and btw we really need to find out who it is that cranks up the crappy music!

Thanks,
202"

Not a good day to be messing with me when my thoughts are with my babies and grandbabies!!
