Walking Backwards

Thrilling experiences from a rather uneventful life.

Monday, January 16, 2006

I'm really not having a good day today. It would be just an average, eh, not so spectacular day, but this morning I got my Depo-Provera injection which makes me a bitchy, discontented harpy of a woman for a couple of days. Think PMS, consolidated. I'm also sore from helping out at Nicholas' school where they are completely re-doing the back play area. Blargh. All of this is making it hard to handle the little things today. Like Nicholas putting an entire roll of toilet paper in the toilet and flushing it. Like finding a load of towels in the washer from three days ago. Like my husband calling to tell me he wants to spend half of our savings on a sports car. . .

Baby H is back tomorrow as school is starting. That also means that my school is starting, too. I'm nervous about both. I wish there was a way to push the pause button and take another week off. I'm not ready. I don't even know what ready would be. Nicholas and I went to the grocery store and the Mediterranean market to stock up on food. I dusted off my backpack and loaded it with books and paper. I started the laundry again. I'm just scared, I guess. When school is in session, I have no moment of relief or respite. I feel like I'm missing out on all of the little things. I just enjoy my free time with Nico and the cat and the husband a little bit too much it seems.

my advice, go somewhere with a pillow and scream, have some chocolate, and remember no matter how crazy things get, it's important to take a second and just breathe. ((HUGS))
