I was going to make chili for dinner but my husband is acting like it isn't something you eat on its own (like, must be served over noodles, or on a hot dog or some shit). It really annoyed me.
Snowing here... Pukey baby last night-had to change sheets x 3, and then I just brought her into bed with me...debating on morning mimosas since my planned brunch was cancelled today and I have an unopened bottle of champs. Dd seems to be doing fine now. Maybe she just ate something weird
Sunday morning mimosas sound delightful! Send some my way!
Trying to decide if we should brave the weather for church. On the one hand, it's rained before the snow, so it's probably pretty icy. On the other, there was a large conference this week, so there will be a special speaker. DH is no help. He wants to pregame our D&D night with video games and MtG
I'm at work. I think this afternoon I will take C to get a winter wreath for the door. Blue? Purple? We still have the autumn one up. H is making burgers for dinner.
Blue and silver-y would be my vote. But blue is my favorite color.
Also, i have a H for sale today. He's on my damn nerves.
Although I'm pretty grateful sometimes that hes a night owl and takes care of the 1/2am feeding, it pisses me off to no end that he insists on staying up, drinking coffee all night, playing his kindle game until then so he gets no sleep until he finally lays down in bed at almost 3am. Then when the toddler and baby are up screaming, ready for the day at 8am, he's not only useless, but he's also cranky and irritable as shit.
Well, sorry dude...mAybe you should smarten up and sneak some sleep in when you can, instead staying up all damn night playing to stupid gamr on the kindle.
I brutally scratched our equinox last night and then discovered my tire was flat to the rim. My BFF decided that we should change it, in the dark, in -20, on out own. Because we are 'capable independent women'.except we couldn't get the lug nuts undone and I needed to flag down a stranger for help.

This stong independent woman has AAA she would have called for help. Cause screw that.

Going to try and avoid and large public place or west side of the valley today. I just don't want to deal with big Super Bowl crazy crowds. I want to be a hermit today...not sure if I'll get my wish though.
Hugs notmycircus. Is there any way you could find a third party to talk to? That sounds extremely difficult. I've gone through some resentful stages with DH since DD was born, so I can understand that.

notmycircus, you don't know me, but I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. It's tough being an adult sometimes. MH is in the restaurant industry too and would like to get out but I don't think that will ever happen honestly and it sucks when you feel like you are living separate lives. Just letting you know someone out there understands. Hope it gets better for you!
notmycircus. Hugs that sounds really difficult. Is there anyway he can changes his hours slightly that would give you a little more family/couple time?
I have to go to the grocery store today. What was I thinking, it's super bowl sunday. Rookie mistake.
Hugs notmycircus! My post looks pretty thoughtless, I did it before I read your post. I'm sorry you are having a hard time. I Work at 5:30 am and feel like I never see my husband.

DH and I were trying to figure out where to hang pictures in the basement. DS1 is now throwing a major tantrum because we won't hang them low enough for him to see them. Like practically on the ground.
Huge hugs notmycircus. I can sort of relate to where you guys are at in terms of struggling financially and finding it hard to carve out time for intimacy/quality adult time together.
I have to say, my therapist has been a godsend to me. She's therr as my sounding board and also an unbiased party that can give me guidance/advice/ideas when needed. She's also there to tell me what we're going through is completely normal.
Dh and i are also struggling finanilly, having a 2 yr old and a 2 week old, and him being laid off currently (I'm a SAHM). So i totally get the money struggles. It definitely puts a strain on things. Also, besides the fact that im not even physically cleared for sex yet, its not like either of us have the time or energy for it right now anyway, so we're trying not to put too much pressure on it.
Sorry i dont have any better advice for you...hust know you're not alone. every marriage has its ebb and flow. Peaks and valleys. You'll get through it!!
Ooof I'm trying to clean up and organize their 3 million toys today. I'm splitting them up between bedrooms, toy room, and living room, and chucking stuff they've outgrown in our furnace room. I'm already exhausted there's still so many goddamn toys.
Can we skip to the part where I'm done, drunk, and watching the Pats?

Thinking this is bananas is appropriate I think. Sounds like something I would do, then instantly regret. Good for you. Clearly you're a badass

Add my DH to list of for sale husband's. He promised to get up with DS and of course didn't. He got mad when I called him out on it so we're bickering. I might send him to the in-laws by himself now.

Thanks everyone.. I am considering looking into talking to someone. It's not that I am unhappy with my life as a whole, but am just in a dark place right now and it's hard to see past it and know that it won't always be this way.
My kid, like the tits, is bananas today. I think I've got a movie on that will hold her interest and she will leave me alone for awhile. I have lots of work to do on my second job.

Ugh what a shitty saturday. Glad you're ok though!
