today was supposed to be a relaxing rainy day at home. JUST mommy, daddy and baby. no one else is at the house to disturb us and no one has work today. we couldn't wait to finish up all of the things for ryder's party. until...travis got a text at 930 this morning to come to work at 10. "for just two cars. then you can go home." oh really? then why am i currently sitting at the house, blogging about my day because he's STILL at work? you mean ole lying boss you! two cars my butt!
ryder took a four hour nap today, that gave me a chance to catch up on some rest too because i rarely get to sleep in or nap anymore. but i had lots of chores today. when we woke up; i started dinner, did some laundry and cleaned up the house a little bit. ryder decided today would be a good day to test mommy's nerves. in a span of four minutes he pulled all of the clean laundry out of the basket, pulled the mouse down off the computer desk, pulled all of daddy's xbox games and controllers off the entertainment center, returned to the computer desk and pulled the MOUSE off the desk too. four minutes! how can one child move so quickly?! while i was cleaning up one mess he was already making another!
i understand now how people could harm their children. i would NEVER ever do something like that but i understand the urges now. instead of doing something crazy like that out of thirty seconds of anger, ryder is now playing in his crib. until daddy gets home. or until tomorrow. or until i leave the house, clear my head and come home with some patience. currently, i am pretending im deaf and cant hear him. this is slightly relaxing pretending he doesnt exist. (so when will i expect to receive my mother of the year award?) HA!
i dont like being alone all day as it is. i have no one to talk to and no help with the baby tornado but on top of that, the thunder is making the dogs follow me around the house and whine. i also have a headache which started this morning when one of them jumped on my head in bed out of fear of RAIN! get a grip! youre a dog, get used to the water touching you! ugh.
the stress of this day is just too much. its barely seven oclock and im already ready for bed. i cant handle much more of this today. i think i need a drink. or two. or ten.
