Ladies, I wish I could take a road trip now. What a relief it would be to throw a bag in the van and hit the road! But, with all that stuff going on with Keith at work, I just can't leave. Plus, he's been in a major snit the last few days & when I asked him what was wrong he replied that he was ticked about the house being a mess, like duh! when isn't our house a mess?!!! I know it's just smoke screen to cover his mounting anxiety about what's coming up for him, plus he's got this soldier that's a total idiot & Keith can't stand him. Keith has to work in about 10 feet of space with him daily, which is enough to drive anyone over the brink. Knowing all this doesn't make living with him any easier unfortunately. Also, I am thinking it must be male PMS season in general anyway. My landlord, the nicest man you will ever meet, has been in a rotten mood lately, too. I think it's because his crops aren't getting enough rain, but I feel like he's mad at me every time I talk to him. UGH!
Men stink sometimes. In fact I bought a t-shirt today that says and I quote, "All men are idiots and I married their king!" Ok, it's not nice, but danged if I don't feel that way right now.
Speaking of shopping, I got the girls clothes for school today. I got each of them 4 outfits & an extra shirt. Most of the things I bought them at the beginning of summer are still ok to wear to school too, so they should be all set. I just have to go and exchange a pair of pants for Emma. I also bought myself an outfit & a purse (both things I desperately needed). All I spent was $120! I think I did fabulously!!! I am NOT buying new underware & socks for them though. Every year I do that & we now have so many tiny panties & socks floating around here that I could make a rather unusual king-sized quilt if I was of a mind to. I am sure my mother would be appalled by this as she thinks it is a requirement of school. As for shoes, those are going to have to wait until the 15th. I just bought the girls new shoes in May & frankly they can be polished and worn for a week until they get new ones. Ok, I am just trying to assuage my guilt for not getting them new ones now, but with Emma's upcoming dental appointment I am a tad worried over money.
Pag, I am sending dry thoughts your way! I bet it's exciting getting all that work done on your home.
Joyce, your work stories always exhaust me. I have no idea how you do it. I salute you & the mad house that waffle house is.
Navywife, just e-mail whatever you have, I'll crop if necessary. And, everyone else, please send a pic. I have something in mind & I'm not telling.
Ok, it's 3:30 in the AM & I am not tired, but I think I'll get off this computer & go clean something. Have a good Sunday y'all.
