So what happened to summer break?? I woke up this morning and realized that its gone. Dh starts back to school tomorrow, and I go a week from Wednesday. Usually not that big a deal but in the last 2 weeks I've been on the go more than I've been at home. And its not going to be a lot better this week.

A week ago today we moved baby furniture and I cleaned the house up good. Monday we went to dh's granny's house so he could work on his car. Tues we relaxed at home. Wednesday to my parents house to work on clearing a spot for a well. Thursday we chased a windshield for his car(unsuccessfully) and out to dh's dad's to return a borrowed video game. Friday I had to take dad to a chemo treatment. Yesterday shopping with mom, to dh's granny's to pick-meet him to go to his mom's house. We haven't been home before 10pm since Wednesday. I've been steady on the go. Today we are at home, but I have laundry and house cleaning to do. Tomorrow going to school with Dh since his car is not insured nor has seats installed. When he gets out of classes we have to come back to town insure his car and run a couple of other errands, then go out to his granny's house so he can install seats etc, and hopefully finally have his car back. Tuesday we are back at my parents house to finish clearing a spot for the well(hopefully). Wednesday Dh has school again, but unless his car is not running I'm staying home to start finishing preparing my things for school and finish the organizing and cleaning of the house. Thursday I'm sure something will come up or need doing. Friday is another chemo treatment day. I'm just ready to slow down a little bit. I'm tired.

Got up this morning hungry, so I got a bowl of ceral. Now one would think that Dh would be smart enough to know its an I'm not cooking morning. No!!! I asked him if he wanted to go play an online game with BIL since he's on and he said "I'm hungry what's for breakfast." My response "Eat a bowl of shredded mini-wheats...it's what I had." He has the nerve to act upset, but the smarts not to open his mouth. So then I'm sitting here thinking about all the stuff that needs doing in the house and well that was the end of my relaxing day!. So I called up my mom and was talking to her, and she was like just relax don't do anything. I know you are tired. I told her that I'd been on the go since Wednesday that I just wanted to rest.(laundry is not that big a deal) After a few more mins, she offered to come up and help and tell my Dh that she was coming up for a bath. He tends to get upset when my mom comes to help me, because he thinks I'm being lazy. At this point I just totally lost it and started crying. I was like no he'll just find a way to be upset and complain. I'll just do it myself and if it kills me he'll have to live with the knowledge that he didn't help etc. Shortly after I started crying(and I wasn't bawling just tears pouring and my voice shaking) he came in our bedroom and got on the bed. I finally hung up with mom and streched out beside him. He asked me what was wrong and I said I'm tired. So after a few mins of snuggling he got up and tucked me in with our body pillows.

I came down the hall again shortly after that and started picking up the house and sorting laundry. And he was like sit down. I basically told him I would sit down after the laundry was sorted. I got hungry again so I'm making sausage, eggs, and toast. But supper is going to be baked chicken or pork chops and baked potatoes. And whether he likes it or not he has dish duty before we go to bed tonight. I've done the dishes most days this week rather than fight with him about it. He's to glued to his video games. So Wednesday while he's at school some of them are disappearing. And if it wasn't for internet classes the computer and modem would disappear as well.

awwww you poor thing!! Sometimes when we're tired it just amplifies everything else. I know that's been the case with me lately. Its one thing after another and I'm just not capable of doing it all anymore!! Hang in there and try and get some rest!!

Hang in there chica! I know it's hard when you've got the hormones flowing, and are tired. Try and relax and take some time for YOU!

I spent most of the day sitting in my chair relaxing, then dh and I played our computer game. After we finished playing the game it was supper time. So I fixed us some BBQ'd Chicken Breast, baked potatoes, and toast. Then I cleaned up the kitchen, folded the laundry I had washed today and yesterday (7 loads) and put that away. I'm now relaxing in my chair with a glass of water before I head off to bed. But I'm going to start the dishwasher first. So happy my house is clean. Ohhh and did Dh help....no he sat on the couch watching movies, after he said he would help. Oh well problem solved...I'm done washing his clothes. He doesn't help me, he can do it himself....won't take long for him to start helping again!! Thanks for listening when I get down ladies....it's nice to know that someone has encouraging words.
