Confession Session & Good Thoughts Thursday! 7/26
Confession: My kids are driving me off the walls today. Between their screaming, fighting, backtalking, negative attitudes and outright defiance, I am at my wit's end. TV privileges were taken away this morning. Both have been in timeouts before 10am today. I almost resorted to spanking them, but instead just broke down and cried. They both seem to be behaving better after lunch (so far), but what a trying morning this was!
Good Thoughts: For all who need them!

*hugs* alicia - I hate those days. UGH.
good thoughts: to my friend in Hawaii recovering from a double mastectomy - that they got all the cancer and that she can begin her healing process ASAP. She's looking forward to smaller 'new boobs.' ;-)
Good thoughts: to all the mamas - those days when the kids are just acting up and driving you crazy can seriously test you to the core. I hate that feeling... you get all shaky and angry and just can't deal. I hope the day gets better Alicia and that you all have good days!
Confession: I screwed up something small for work the other day, it was revealed today, Boss lost his sh!t, and it turns out both cases needed extensions anyway so other than "losing face and being embarrassed" absolutely no harm came to anyone. And i'm left eating Mcdonalds, shaking and crying from him being angry and me being upset for nothing. Lovely.
Confession: i wish I could just quit my job. I hate money.
Confession: See above, had mcdonalds for lunch b/c I was so upset and frazzled. Yeah b/c that helps with weight loss. *sigh*

Confession: I am not enjoying this vacation at all yet. Yesterday was a long day of travel, and after finally making it and settling into a room (with 2 twin bunk beds and not enough room for 2 suitcases and a pack n play) we were disturbed by something flying around the room. Turns out it was a bat. And after getting it outside, calming down, and climbing back to bed - I wake up 2 minutes later to DH saying "you've got to be kidding me."
Yup, 2nd bat.
I think I finally managed to nap in a different room for a total of 4 hours since 5:30 am yesterday, but I am running on empty. I wish DH would just agree to going to a hotel instead of staying here with the rest of his family. Being here during the day is fine, but I won't survive 3 more nights paranoid about bats (or worse, with more bats, since their solution is to put ammonia in the crack in the wall and seal it with painter's tape.)
