What's Bugging You? Wednesday
and go...
For me, it's that I finally bought new shoes for work when I sucked it up and went to DSW. Of course, once I try everyone but them, they actually had my size. I must have hit them on a delivery day or something. Anyway, I spent like $40 on a stupid pair of relatively plain black flats (they were all this price), and they already have big scuffs in both toes. Awesome. This is why the last pair I bought on sale from Kmart for like $8.
Re: What's Bugging You? Wednesday
DH was suppose to fly home tonight. He emailed saying that there's weather coming in now, so he'll leave tomorrow! I had to change DS's 18 month appt. to 8:20am tomorrow (that is very early for my late to bed, late getting up family), and I was looking forward to the extra help getting them ready & going in the morning.
Oh well, I'll survive, it just would have been nice.
I have this cut on my hand, and I'm not sure how I got it, but it HURTS and it's annoying.
Where is everyone today? It's weirdly quiet around here!
I have no food in the house and I absolutely HATE grocery shopping. Normally I would send DH to the store with a list, but he's so busy with his experiment right now that I feel guilty taking up any of his time. And it's not like I have anything super pressing to do tonight, so I'll end up going. But I'm dreading it already.
There are 2 big things bothering me today:
1. My best friend was supposed to come over today to hang out-- and all of a sudden has "has to go home". Just a little annoying.
2. This one is a little more personal: My husband and I have not done a single physical thing with each other (except daily kisses) in over a week... We've only been married for 3. I am hoping it is just because we are so busy, but I don't feel like that is a good excuse.
A few things today.
1. Slowest.week.ever. How is it only Wed?
2. I either have a huge pimple or a spider bite on my upper lip. I think I would rather it be a pimple because the though of a spider on my mouth =
. Either way, it hurts and it's right there for all to see. 
3. DH's family and planning Christmas = clusterfluck. Enough said.
This is my FAVORITE word to use whenever things get too crouded or confusing! A girl after my own heart haha
I painted my nails yesterday, it looks like I painted them a month ago.
My 3 year old refuses to nap and turns into a demon at night. Now I must try to move his bedtime up earlier, which sucks because we struggled somewhat to get on this current schedule and have mastered it.
I have company coming and as much as I like them, I'm dreading it. They are picky at times. Now they are pregnant and have food aversions but won't tell me what they will eat. They also have weird (to me) child care and may put us out of our own living space. They told me today that if their daughter won't sleep in the Pack-n-Play, she'll sleep in bed with mom and dad will sleep on the floor- no, we have a futon in the playroom that we'll take instead and they can split up the guest room and our bedroom between the 3 of them. They refuse and want to sleep in guest room and playroom---- that would mean we either wake them up at 6am or we have to try to keep our kids in our room until they wake up. Grrr.
Getting back to it- my diet and exercise blog
Losing it...Without Losing it
That's hard. DH and I have times like this and we've only been married a year. Sometimes he just bugs me so much I just want to be left alone. Other times we're just busy. It's probably nothing. You could totally use this as an excuse to schedule a romantic getaway!
It bugs me that H doesn't always appreciate what I do for him. Monday I decided to work from home and he had the day off. Somehow I ended up doing 5 loads of laundry, making dinner and was really busy with work stuff until 7pm. Did he ever say - hey, can I help or I can make dinner, NOPE! What a butthead!!
These things happen sometimes.... You'll just have to make a move tonight
