I am soooo glad it is Friday!!! This has been a very long week. I did go to the doctor yesterday and am on yet another round of antibiotics and a nasal decongestant. So, I am hopeful that I will feel better soon. She said if I am not any better in a week to call and she will want to do a CAT scan to check my sinuses. Bleh.

DH has to work overnight tonight..another DRE that he does once a month. Usually they are during the day but occasionally they will do one overnight, like tonight. It’s all good..I am planning on making homemade pizza and ice cream sundaes and having a movie night with the kids. I rented Beverly Hills Chihuahua lol…oh, and City of Ember.

Went out for a bit this morning to clean out and wash my car while DH was still home, and to rent movies. I was so hungry, because I didn’t get a chance to eat breakfast this morning, and I almost stopped and went through a drive through, but I am proud to say I talked myself out of it. I came home instead and made some frozen teriyaki marinated fish filets that I have been wanting to try instead. They were pretty salty, but I’m sure calorie wise they were a much better choice than anyplace I could have gone.

Plans for this weekend are to hopefully switch rooms with the boys…Rhianna’s room, when finished will be next to theirs, and I would rather have our room next to her, so we need to get them switched ASAP. Also, tomorrow is Kidsmania at the local high school. Basically it is something they do once a year where it is like a giant indoor yardsale, but it is all kids stuff…clothes, toys, furniture, etc. Hoping to score some good deals for DD, and possibly youngest DS although that is iffy. Older boys stuff is always hard to find because they are so rough on clothes that they rarely make it to yard sale quality lol. Oh, and that reminds me..I NEED to go out this weekend and look for short sleeved shirts for oldest son..he is only 8 but he needs an 18/20 in shirts…the 14/16s that he has are so short on him that it is ridiculous.

The weather today is GORGEOUS, so I am going to go enjoy it! Have a great weekend everyone!

Cranky and overwhelmed

Posted by lizhealthymom on March 5th, 2009 |Filed Under Uncategorized | 4 Comments

This is just one of those days where I want to crawl under the covers and go back to bed.  I have been dealing with what I am assuming is fluid in my ears from a sinus infection for a couple of weeks now.  I did call my awhile back and got a prescription for a zpac, which helped with the sinus infection but not my ears.  And I have had sick kids at home pretty much for the whole past 2 weeks so every time I had a drs appointment scheduled I have had to cancel it.  I am hoping to get in tomorrow while DH is home during the day so that I don’t have to drag my almost 2 year old along.  I am just wiped out and the fact that I can’t hear anything is really making me cranky.  I am also in a bad mood because I am at my wits end with my youngest son.  I hate to say it but he is L-A-Z-Y!  He is only 5, but he just flat out refuses to do anything..I have been getting notes sent home from his kindergarten teacher saying that he has been playing instead of working/listening/etc., and not getting his work done.  In the mornings, he almost always comes within a couple of minutes of missing the bus because he won’t get dressed.  He has missed breakfast the last 3 days because the rule here is that you have to be dressed before you eat..he is such a slow eater that if I gave him half a bagel, he’d still be “eating” it an hour later =\  His excuses are always that someone is “distracting” him (doesn’t even matter if they are not even in the same room)…it is just that, an excuse.  Like when I tell him to get dressed in the morning, it’s always “I can’t, it’s too hard, so and so is distracting me” etc etc etc..We have tried bribing him with special things, taking things away from him and lastly, spanking (which for me is a very last resort).  NOTHING seems to be sinking in with him.  And I am just at a loss as to what to do.   It doesn’t help that DH has this whole “thing” against the school district (well, really any school, but hell if I am going to homeschool).  So he refuses to help me deal with pretty much anything regarding school (maybe DS is seeing it as a joke because we are not showing a united front?), and lately DH has been acting like a kid himself.  He basically comes home and sits in front of the computer all night (or day if it is the weekend) and that is it.  I am just so overwhelmed and crabby and I am SO ready to have a huge temper tantrum of my own!
