I'm feeling a little bit better with where I'm heading now.I've had some quiet time just to sit and reflect, and I have to try and book myself more reflection time...it really clears the clouds of life away.
Seriously, it's bad when you physically have to plan five minute of quiet time....but if not, then it's constant chaos and tending to the needs of others...welcome to my life.
I'm not complaining, I truly enjoy having a family to care for...but I have to find a little bit of 'me' time now and then.
I am PMS-ing.
I am a bitch.
I'm sorry about that.
I was a bitch to Hubby last night, and he told me today that he was looking up vacation packages online for a trip next month, but I blew it.
Figures.
But that's okay, we have other responsibilities that we should take care of before we indulge in a vacation...but it would be sooooo nice to have a break.
This morning, like every other morning, I had to remind Daughter to do EVERYTHING! On our way to school she said I needed to take her home because she forgot to brush her teeth. I stopped the truck and made her get out and walk home, brush her teeth and walk to school. I bet she won't forget to do THAT again.
And after school I asked the kids to clean their bathroom and vacuum the upstairs hallway and down the steps. Daughter chose to do the bathroom, which meant Big Son was responsible to vacuum. Daughter did her chore immediately after school. Big Son farted around for two hours until it was time to go to his school to watch a basketball game. He asked me to drive him, I said 'No".
He said he was going to take 2 minutes and run the vacuum over the carpet upstairs and would I drive him then?
I said, "No."
Then I told him that he couldn't go at all. Not only did I ask him to help me, but I asked him twice. Teamwork is a two way street....
He did his chore, and stayed home. Not without sulking and stomping....
KIDS!!!
And do you know that my husband is still upset that I have to work until 7:00 two nights that he's here? I just feel like I can't win. I probably wouldn't have been so upset if he wasn't so short with his judgement, he said, "I thought you wanted more time at home? I don't want to hear about it anymore if you're not going to follow through with your plan to work part-time."
Ughh....
Yes. PMS.
And feeling utterly alone.
Today when I picked Ty up at daycare I asked where his teacher was. I haven't seen her since Thursday...apparently she isn't coming back. I didn't get a reason, I don't think I need one, only that it was HER choice-whatever THAT means, but I'm really upset because she was sooo good with the kids, and Ty loved her. The dynamic has changed there now, I could feel it.
Hubby will be home tomorrow afternoon, it looks like a few days of nice weather heading our way. Yay! Maybe the Easter Bunny will be able to hide eggs outside this year....
I'm ready to buckle down and get some more soaps started. I've been slacking off a bit, but I'm focused again...so I've got to make some time one of these evenings. I've got a few ideas...
Alright.
I'm ready to tuck all my kids in bed and go lay down.
Thanks for checking in.
