Day 11 - A picture of something you hate

I really hate all of the drama associated with being a navy wife. I feel like it has just gotten increasingly bad recently. Everything I say and/or post I feel like has to be watered down and censored. I hate not being able to be myself around here. While someone can easily say "just leave the FB groups" I like to be ABLE to continue to meet people. Also, people post a lot of questions that I may have myself down the road. 

I was involved with some "private" drama a little over a month ago. I learned that even though people say they want feedback and input, they really only want to hear the positives. I gave my opinion and ended up getting hurt because of it. This person said some pretty mean things about me, when my contact with her was not malicious.  Now I feel like I am walking on eggshells with every post I make on FB. I hate that it all happened. People that I have never even met don't like me, because of things that were said behind my back. I try not to let it get to me too much, because I know my intent wasn't to cause drama or upset anyone, but it does hurt.  

I started keeping to myself more after that drama and I am just now opening up again. I am thankful that I am not a wife that sits around all day on FB, I actually have a job! I think the only excuse not to have a job that these girls have are the ones pregnant or already have children. Other than those two categories, these girls need to get off their butts and get a job! Yeah, you will have to work sometimes when your hubby is home. That completely sucks, but really it is worth it. I feel like a MUCH better person now that I have a job. My marriage is also much better because of it. 

I feel like blogging right now. I am sick, so I haven't been able to fall back to sleep since Rusty left for school.

I have decided I want to spend less time on facebook. There is way too much drama going on here in SC and I am going to do my best to stay out of it. I don't want enemies. I don't want conflict. One reason that I routinely check facebook is for Farmville.

I love farmville. Not sure why, but I am hooked on it. I am a pretty good farmer too. I keep track of updates and my crops rarely wither. I started playing in like October of 2009. Then around this time last year I quit. There were too many new updates and I didn't like them.

Well... in December I picked it up again. When I moved to SC I got Rusty to play with me and now he is hooked.

I tried my best not to completely annoy my friends and I would delete posts from my wall after I knew the object had expired or if it had been claimed. I am confident that I have been "hidden" on multiple FB friend's pages. Sorry yall.

I have gotten kinda bored with Farmville and even though they are about to release another expansion I just don't enjoy it any more. It makes me late, it takes priority over way too much. Just not a healthy activity anymore.

It will be weird that Rusty still plays. But I feel like such a hypocrite when I get annoyed at Rusty for playing farmville when we need to go out, go to bed, or just get something done. He doesn't think that I am actually going to be able to quit. Whatever! :-)

We'll see if quitting farmville will actually get me to spend less time on facebook. Also, if I can resist the temptation when Rusty plays. :-)
