Holiday aftermath...not too pretty...

Ssssshh...I'm feeling a little cranky - don't tell.

I really have nothing to complain about. We had a good Christmas -not family filled, but good. Everyone is happy (mostly), everyone is healthy (again, mostly) and I should have no real reason to complain. But the house is a mess, no one is getting along, should be doing a hundred different things - and here i sit.

Sigh

Things are just not quite right.

Hubby and I aren't fighting (today), but we aren't 'together' either, if you know what I mean. I'm sure most of you do. We need time, time to reconnect. I just don't know how right now...and to be honest - I'm too grumpy to figure anything out. AJ turns 5 in two weeks and the hubby and I haven't had a 'date' since before he was born. Just sad.

And AJ...well, lets just say I had no idea that a four year old could be so contrary. I thought nature ensured survival of the species by making little kids cute, so that parents let them live long enough to be teenagers. By then, you have invested enough in them, it's too late to cut your losses...so you keep 'em. That isn't working at my house.

I think he misses school. (I know I do)

I have to bring AJ to work with me tomorrow. That should be interesting...

Ok. I'm going to go make lunch for my family and pull my cranky head out of my butt and find something fun to do! Cleaning can wait...

Next post will be pictures of Christmas and Rex!! Finally....




5 love letters:

  1. Rex is the Dinosaur that AJ got from Santa (per his exact directions) Evidently, I'm in charge of feeding him...

  2. Just don't feed Rex too much. lol Don't feel bad. Our house is more like a jungle gym at present. The boys are out of school, we are flooded in and can't go anywhere and I can't seem to get the boys to keep up after themselves. Is this a losing battle? :)

  4. It's so easy to get disconnected once kids enter the picture. I think a date night is just what the Dr ordered for you.
