Well it’s gone again. Yes I have lost my patience once more. Eventually it always comes back, but I get so upset whenever it disappears. It doesn’t have a tag, but its identity is clear once it returns. Doesn’t my patience understand how important it is to me? Why can’t I always keep it so I can avoid the stress and worry that I experience every time it is gone? In a twist of serious irony and what I highly suspect to be a cosmic sense of humor, the more upset I get, the longer it takes for me to find my damn patience again. So here I am. Bitching about my patience as I wait impatiently for it to reappear.
Before you ask me why my panties are so totally in a bunch, I’ll just say that I’m an overall grumposaurus max today. If you even bring up the word “hormones,” I will chase you down with a spork. I’m just super tired, and I’m also generally annoyed with stuff. Different kinds of stuff. Small stuff that shouldn’t be sweated, and yes, it truly is the smallest of the small stuff. Lots of first world problems. Unfortunately my patience and I have a long-standing relationship dynamic that has perpetually been fraught with drama. It leaves me, and although I fear terribly that it will never come back, it always returns. In the meantime, I’m fine. Really. I’m just grouchy.
With that said, if you do happen to see my patience in your neck of the woods, please tell it to get its a$$ home immediately. I suspect that it is cavorting about somewhere with my mind and my youth. If so, please send them back, too.

Just count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,…….1,034,674…..

I’m not even sure if the numbers after the 3.141592653…in pi would be enough! 😉
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:05:52
😂 You´re such a nerd!!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:38:51
I know! That’s why you love me. 😘
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:44:24
Jaja. You know me well my friend.

Dearest Joanna:
I’m so sorry. I had a bad morning and I stole your patience. I thought it could help me as I, too, have been an angry a$$. I should have asked your permission, but I didn’t. I am an awful man. I’ve just delivered down the chimney (um, I hope that was your house), a lovely gift box, wrapped in a beautiful bow, full of your missing patience and all of mine, which is now safely back in its place. I don’t need it tomorrow, so it’s yours to use as you see fit. Hope its a better day.
Love,
J

Dammit JC4! I thought that it might be you! 😂
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:01:15
My apologies, Jo. You can keep mine as long as you need or want. Even just to torture me and amuse yourself at my rants on 365 over having lost my patience.
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:34:44
😂😂😂. I adore you forever!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 18:55:41
I am right there with you and I agree. My man mentioned hormones and I wished I could smack him through the phone!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:00:25
Let’s go find sporks so we can torture him in return!!!!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:02:54
Ooh great idea!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:38:37
😂
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:45:10
Hahaha I am cowering at the thought of the spork! I do hope you feel better soon. Empathies. xx
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:47:12
Bleh – sporks are the worst! I believe that they are either (a) evil incarnate or (b) plastic forks that stayed in the cooker too long and melted into the misshapen rejects that they are. (Clearly (a) is the accurate answer.) 😂
Oct 25, 2017 @ 19:48:11
Ahahaha… I am suitably warned.
Oct 25, 2017 @ 20:16:31
😂
Oct 25, 2017 @ 20:57:10
Sorry you and jay had such bad days. I never have any patience or I would lend you some!! Hoping you’re a little better tomorrow!!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 21:09:55
Remember when we would go out with our friends when we were younger? I imagine our patience running around in packs together just living it up as we collectively stew at home!
Oct 25, 2017 @ 21:12:09
LOL. I think you’re right! I had a friend who told me the GNR song patience should have been my theme song
Oct 25, 2017 @ 21:59:14
And now I’ll have THAT stuck in my head. A little patience yeeeeeeaaaah. You’re. Killing. Me.
Oct 25, 2017 @ 22:30:19
😝😉😚
Oct 25, 2017 @ 21:50:35
I really understand that. Especially today 😪 Just know that your patience is probably hanging out with my endurance
Oct 25, 2017 @ 21:58:09
Well at least I can be thankful to know that it has so much good company. 😘
Oct 25, 2017 @ 23:06:15
I joined the same club 😦 “Losing your Patience Day”
Oct 26, 2017 @ 00:41:52
What happened chica?!? You ok?
Oct 26, 2017 @ 01:00:39
Yes, all ok 🙂 just had one of those days
Oct 26, 2017 @ 04:54:52
Ok lovebug
Oct 25, 2017 @ 23:31:57
Torture with sporks…I’m in! ”Tis the perfect season! 😉🎃
Oct 26, 2017 @ 00:41:32
Lol – I knew that others would join me in the spork mania!!! 😂😂😂
Oct 26, 2017 @ 03:40:43
BREATHE! 😉 X
Oct 26, 2017 @ 04:55:57
For me iit feels more like SURVIVE when it gets like that. ❤️
Oct 26, 2017 @ 08:01:28
This made me giggle, as I know what it’s like to have one of those ‘hair across my a*#!’ days all too well. Hoping that your patience has pranced back in and stays put for a while, Jo….
Oct 26, 2017 @ 08:27:53
I wouldn’t place any bets on the “patience sticking around for long” side of the table, but I do feel better at the moment! 😘
Oct 26, 2017 @ 10:03:11
Hope you and your patience are celebrating a joyous reunion by now.
Oct 26, 2017 @ 16:13:39
We have a fractious relationship but it’s here at the moment! 😂😘
Oct 26, 2017 @ 10:03:33
I’m sorry. I can’t stop giggling. I hope you found patience, youth and your mind. They were probably at the fun house with mine! ha ha
Oct 26, 2017 @ 16:14:30
It seems like my youth has bailed for good, and I think that my mind went with it. Thankfully my patience has briefly returned! 😉
Oct 27, 2017 @ 15:51:19
Oh good! Thank God for patience! As for the rest, at least you have your beautiful looks! ♥
Oct 27, 2017 @ 21:26:38
I wish! 😂
Oct 26, 2017 @ 22:57:39
I believe I have your patience … my bathroom has been under construction for a year and last night the final pipe put in didn’t fit, one more day of waiting, I took it like a champ! My husband thought I had a stroke I was so calm… “MoJo Patience … run on home, your mama needs you back!”~Kim
Oct 27, 2017 @ 21:28:49
I think you earned an extra dose after the week you had. For you, I will gladly share. 😘😘😘
Oct 27, 2017 @ 21:54:15
Yay! Next time I’ll ask first! xo~Kim
Oct 27, 2017 @ 22:24:56
😘
Oct 28, 2017 @ 17:21:47
I love your post we all lose our patience at times it’s normal. Your right sometimes we can’t find it and it seems lost for days maybe weeks but my advice look for the positive in the mean time, enjoy something you love to do, and it will return :). Stress and worry is not worth the trouble. flightministries.com
Oct 28, 2017 @ 21:36:07
Love the advice and of course you are so right honey! 😘
Oct 29, 2017 @ 05:43:05
I’ve just been alternately nodding along with you and chuckling at your vivid descriptions! Looking forward to delving into more of your posts!
Oct 29, 2017 @ 10:16:41
Ha! I love the comment. Made me smile. Thanks so much sweet friend. 🙂 Joanna
Oct 30, 2017 @ 15:51:40
I swear panties is the sexiest word in the English language.
Oct 30, 2017 @ 22:33:37
That word is like candy corn. Either you love it or you hate it. No middle ground. I’m a fan. Knickers isn’t sexy sounding to me, but I still think that it’s a damn good word and it makes me giggle every frickin time.
Oct 31, 2017 @ 13:50:16
I agree knickers is a fabulous word but I still prefer panties. ( 😮 not to wear mind!!)
Oct 31, 2017 @ 20:37:44
No judgement if you do. Everybody has their own style!
Nov 01, 2017 @ 13:29:34
Nov 02, 2017 @ 14:04:52
I’d completely forgotten I’d worn ladies sheer black stockings AND they felt fabulous!
Nov 08, 2017 @ 13:43:33
I want to be shocked Andrew, but instead I find myself thinking, “I bet he tried thigh highs.” That would be so you. 😂
Nov 08, 2017 @ 14:58:25
😀 You inspired me to write this a week ago, https://collie123.wordpress.com/2017/11/01/have-you-ever-cross-dressed/
Nov 08, 2017 @ 16:35:10
Ok in case my nine mile long comment on your post doesn’t make it clear – I LOVED THAT POST!!!!!! Awesome awesome awesome post Andrew!!!
Nov 09, 2017 @ 04:28:05
🙂 (beaming smile) I enjoy interacting with Bloggers and writing response posts when they HAVE prompted a memory from deep within me, lovely people bloggers I’ve always received lovely replies TY. You girls are lucky, and yes you ARE correct they were half thigh stockings!!!! Wise woman is Jo. Oh yes you girls are lucky, stockings feel fabulous against the skin and I do have the shapely legs for them, what a shame I 😀 can’t wear them. Mind you they’re sexier when I’m taking them off someone. 😉
