The Ups and Downs of Almost Spring
Two days ago I was excited by the prospect of spring. The weather is perfect, my mom's tulips are blooming, I can look out of my office at a field of wildflowers, I can actually spend some time outside.
For the last two days I've been grouchy as hell. I'm not sure exactly waht my problem is. I'm getting fed up by the lack of help from Aaron around the house. My house is tore-up right now, and it doesn't seem to phase him. I get home, and he's on the couch. I go to bed, he's still on the couch. In the time between, I've fed and bathed the kid, done the dishes, done laundry, and picked up around the house. Yes, I know he's worked all day. But guess what, so have I. He chose to do what he does for a living. Yes, he works very hard. But that does not excuse him from household responsibilities. He's gone at an "empowerment training" course in Nevada for the next four days (well, day four is party-time in Reno). If he doens't come home with a new attitude towards our house and his responsibilities towards it, I will snap.
Work has been busier which I'm happy about. We we have a supervisors training workshop tomorrow, and no one was prepared, which means I have been scrambling and racing around trying to get their shit done. Happens every year. Pisses me off!
I'm looking forward to a nice long weekend of time with family, my kid, watching some movies, and TONS OF FUCKING HOUSEWORK AND LAUNDRY! Great.
