Well, the poop has hit the fan yet again with DH's work. I don't know any details only that DH is madder than a stirred up hive o' hornets. He's the most miserable, unpleasant person to be around. I can hardly stand him. He pouts, grumps, and lashes out at anyone who happens pass his domain. We walk on eggshells around him and then he gets mad and has a fit if we look at him wrong! I'm ready to throttle the man. He just completely sucks the joy right out of our home when he gets like this. I wish I knew what to do. It's like the man needs an exorcism or something drastic. Unfortunately Aunt Ruby is headed for a visit and I can feel my own crabbiness creeping in. His may last longer (he can smolder and brew for months like this), but guess who erupts and wreaks total destruction? Yup. I get over it as soon as I erupt, but it leaves a path of destruction a mile wide. It's too bad that that's what it usually takes to knock him out of his pity party. At least this way we may not have to endure his wrath for weeks. (Trying to look on the bright side here. lol)
Well, yesterday I went and helped my parents clean my dad's parents house. DH and I lived there for the first 6 yrs of our marriage. Gpa and gma lived there until I was 5 so I'm the only kid in my family that remembers them in that house. What wonderful memories too! They moved to Moab, Utah and my dad has rented the house out ever since. I can't believe that was more than 30 yrs ago! Well, the house went to dad when they died and each of my siblings has lived there for a while. It's a cute little two bedroom farmhouse full of wonderful old ghosts. Seriously!! It's wonderful. I never felt as safe as I did when I lived there. It was like I had the whole family tree loving and protecting us. My two oldest kids were the 7th generation of our family to live on that property. But, it's now time to let it go. The property was divided so many times that al that's left is their 1/2 acre lot with commercial developments all around it. I'm sure it'll be torn down soon to make way for "progress". *sniff* It's hard, but I know it's best especially for my dad. I'll always have wonderful memories of the place and it was nice to get to say goodbye.
Well, today's plan is:
Bath
laundry
nap
kitchen tidy
take gma's mirror in to see if they can reframe it.
tidy office and set up gma's old desk for the kids' homework station
pay bills
dinner started
piano lessons
Beat the kids into submission so they'll do their homework
dinner
BED! |

My hubby use to act like that at one of his jobs and I flat told him, get a different job or lay your crap off! It would shut him up fast.lol
Well, I am doing some minor cleaning and reading today. Yesterday, as soon as I sat down to read Alex called asking to come home because he was tired. I did not get him. I told him that he made the choice to stay up until 1 in the morning so he needed to stay at school. I could not believe they let him call.

DH use to call me every day to see how I was doing. Then, he slacked off so I started calling him more until I did it every afternoon. Now, I'll be darned if I'm gonna call him. All he does is complain and yell to me over the phone. He's not yelling at me, he's just so mad at everything else and I'm his outlet. The last time he got like this I told him to stop being a bully. I told him I was sick and tired of him bullying me and the kids when he was mad at other people and I wouldn't tolerate it anymore.
When he gets this way he bullies his way around. It startled some sense into him. A year before I told him to "Stop being a damn baby." Told him he either needed to let it go or do something about it, but I couldn't listen to him bellyache day after day. Honestly, I NEVER talk back to my DH, but I'd had it. That was the first time I ever really spoke up against him. He gave me the silent treatment for three days. I thought he was going to ask for a divorce! In the end it made a HUGE difference. He still talks about it. I'm running out of things to say now! lol
Spent the afternoon cleaning the kitchen and decluttering the living room. Everything was in it's place, but it just looked cluttered. I cleared off the tables and now there're only a couple of decor items. It looks so much better and the energy seems to flow in there now. I'll see if anyone notices.
Hope you're all getting along well with your days!
