Friday Frivolity

[shellbell]

Guise, last summer I actually wrote to my state representatives to try to get some quiet in the morning before wake up and for nap. There was major construction, and I was a bitch about it. Every single morning those fuckers fired up their machines before 7am, I was on the phone to the foreman. Sorry not sorry. We need our damn sleep.

I guess it's just small, mounting irritations. She also babysits about once a week, and when she does, she will invite people over to my house without asking permission. Like last week I came home and H's aunt was there. Today H's stepfather and his granddaughter were over.

And these people are all family. It's not that I mind, but it's my house. You shouldn't invite people over to my house without clearing it with me first.

Idk, maybe I'm just being bitchy.

Between that and the petty commentary, it's like, listen. Being a mother is hard. I'm figuring it out by myself without my own mother. If your biggest complaint is that my home is quiet, save the comments and tell me I'm doing a good job.

R is giving me a run for my money. Yesterday evening g hebgad a two hour stretch that he screamed a lot. He is normally pretty fussy in the evenings, but this was screaming. He was fine early this morning and now back to screaming. So I'm feeding him and I'm gonna put him in the car hoping driving and the stroller will keep him asleep or content.

In general, I think you (General you) will be happier as a parent when you learn to just ignore the noise from others, especially relatives and olds. Perfect your smile and nod and keep on keepin on. If you get upset everytime you get parenting "advice," you are going to waste so much energy being irritated.

H just left with DS to go camping. I'm kind of at a loss of what to do with myself. I think I'm feeling a little stir crazy, but it's too late in the day for me to want to go anywhere. And too hot for me to want to go for a walk. I just feel kind of off... maybe lonely? Idk. Weepy, anxious about nothing, restless, etc.

My period better not be coming back because I will be so mad.

They didn't call today so it looks like I have to wait until Monday. Ugh!! I've convinced myself it's because they told the person who got the job and are waiting till Monday to tell the rest of us no cause they want to make sure they accept.

Also I'm exhausted. DH leaves Tuesday for 5 nights away and I'm exhausted thinking about it.

Got online to LT today but gonna skip commenting.

Home now and nursing both babes. O had already pulled off to coo and give me the biggest smile. She just melted my heart. Now Lil G is just talking away and giving me all the gummy smiles!

So... the return from leave meeting went so well that I left and spent an hour on the phone with an employment attorney.

That's all I'll post publicly. But I've been sobbing since about 4:30pm.
