You know the saying.  Or, for me, it goes: the road to insanity is paved with "was going to".  Ugh ( Read more... )

Wish I could come over and take care of the hornet's nest for you.

thanks.
Hubby should be home soon and he said he'd get it. Probably can just knock it loose with the hose but I don't want to risk getting stung. No idea what it would do to me.

Someday you will look back on the time when your kids were this age and say, "Wow, those were the best years!" I know it doesn't fell like it. I know your whole day sucked but one day you'll laugh about this day. Maybe sooner than you think. Things are difficult and you need some "me time". Tell your husband to get off the couch and clean and parent and take your weary body into a hot bath with a glass of wine. You deserve it. You are a fabulous mother. You didn't kill your children today. LOL.

Breathe.

And tell him to get rid of the hornets with some hornet nest killer. It works. You of course msut be sequestered while he does this. I think the bath is the safest place.

Is it me or is the hornet's nest somewhat metaphrocial of your day?

Don't get me wrong--I was laughing about it under all the grumbling. Usually the more that goes wrong the more I laugh. If it had been just one or two things I would have been ticked all day. But because the crazy things kept happening I couldn't do anything but laugh. And grumble ( ... )

It's 2:30 a.m. here so I totally get it. I remember the chaos. One day I left my purse in the car because I had a 1 and 3 year old adn a car full of groceries and it had been a day from hell. I get up the next morning and some fucker threw a rock through my window and stole my purse. ANd the cop says, "So Mrs.______, I guess you learned a lesson in stupidity." And I went bat shit crazy on him in front of all the office staff. "Who in hell do you think you are Officer Asshole. you don't live my fucking life. YOu don't know how my day had gone or that my kids were sick or that I had a car full of groceries and only two hands...how dare you? HOW DARE YOU? You think I'm stupid? Well, I'm smart enough to have writen your badge number down asshole..." I'musually very nice. Other thing? He actually figured out WHO I was and it turns out he didn't get the overtime at school dances anymore because GUESS WHO was in charge of hiring and paying the cops? heheheheheh....they got 200 bucks for 3 hours work ( ... )
