Do you ever have those days or evenings where your whole
family gets on your nerves? Like each kid in their unique, annoying way and
your husband too?
Where you suddenly look around the table and think “god these
people annoy me? Pls be quiet and go away?” Tonight at dinner that is how I felt
and now it is 3 hrs Later and I just can’t seem to shake it. I guess this has
not happened to me in a while as it feels pretty foreign. I have been thinking
about Eat. Pray.Love . a lot lately (aka I want to take off and go to Italy by
myself.
I wish I could blame it on PMS but got my period today so
I should be feeling calm and peaceful right?
Anyways just a reminder for you all that my life is not
all peachy when it comes to my family always. Sure I love them and all but I
got an email the other day from a reader saying that she could not believe how
much I seemed to adore my kids. Well listen up lady……there are plenty of times
I don’t adore them.
I guess I just have to write about those times more
often. I begin tonight..
PS-I think hockey and the series is really contributing
to my malaises and annoyance. The screaming for every goal or loss (and often
swearing which I can’t stand but is apparently
part of watching hockey, Bear up until midnight a few times a week on school
nights, my husband not wanting to watch Modern Family, me being kicked out of
family room. It’s just too much. Oh ya and Beauty tonight turned on me again. I
guess the trip honeymoon is over!
I honestly don’t know how parents keep their kids up late
at night on school nights and can actually be calm and cool and collected with
them the next day.,I met a single Mom
today with a 7, 9 and 11 yr old and they go to bed at 10pm every night!!! And
she said she never screams or gets irritated with them ever! Could never ever
do it. By 9:15pm during week latest I am FINISHED with kids. Goodnight! Weekends
are enough when they stay up until midnight thank you very much.
I think I need to go to bed now befoe this post becomes
the most boring thing I have ever written.
Goodnight.
