My husband/ my son's father
Jun 13, 2008 10:00 pm

I was reading a recent blog of LadyTiger's when I got to thinking about my husband. We haven't been having the best weeks recently, it has been hard for us with many things we are trying to take care of! I have a really hard time with my husband because many times he makes me feel as though I am no longer important to him (not only in gestures but he has said it to me). But I remember that he truly remembers me -no matter how hard it gets.

My husband is really a great husband and father entirely! I love watching him with our son, and I know he loves him so much. It pains me that he has to work so much to make such a wonderful life for us. I am actually really excited!!

Yesterday, we went out to have some fun a the Mall of America, but it didn't turn out exactly as desired. Dh always has trouble with going to the mall and always seems to be bored or annoyed. Then, on our way home we were going to go out to eat -dh loves the wings at dominos, so I suggested Buffalo Wild Wings. Well, he wasn't thrilled after being there and eating, so he basically ignored me and watched the tv the entire time. Later that night when I wanted to talk to him, he just wanted me to drop it. I feel forgotten (and he does do this at times). I am not trying writing this because I am still mad or hurt (b/c normally I seem mad, but I am actually hurt). Tonight he came home and said that we would talk tonight - and he said REALLY talk about it! I am excited, b/c I hope this will really help our relationship!! (And it should hopefully help tonight in bed-hehehe).  Happy Father's Day to all!!! (enjoy it).

I am just here watching tv (I am SO lazy right now...)I have a huge mess downstairs and need to rearrange a whole ton of stuff. But the good news is that dh will be coming to the Father's Day celebrations we have for our family! It will be interesting because my Aunt's fiance Alex really annoys dh, which was one reason why he hadn't planned on coming. But he change his mind!! Yippee, I won't feel like the odd one out being the only one without the other half. Life has been an interesting thing to experience recently. . . . .

Oh well. My dh has been driving me crazy, one day everything is great. The next time we are fighting about nothing!

cooking problems

Okay, I am really tired of dealing with my dh at times. He works all weekend basically - 8-4 then 5-9 (or whenever). Well yesterday he got annoyed because I didn't "cook" for him! (I make sure there is food for him to eat and if I am busy all he has to do is heat it up in the microwave). After church today we did some errands. I got home like 30 minutes before he would get off work, so I cooked lunch for him. He got home, and then what I cooked was too salty or not enough salt. I got so annoyed, and he told me that I had to just learn how to cook!!!! Um, 1. I went to school for culinary arts  2. Everytime it is the opposite -first too much salt, then not enough. Later it isn't spicy enough, then it is too spicy!!  I just don't know what to do with him, we just keep having problems - and he always says that it is MY characteristics that are causing them!

my day

I had an amazing dream last night. It made me feel so uplightened when waking up. Recently my peditrician said I could start giving cereal to ds, which I started. Although it didn't have the effect I had hoped for, he now wakes every 2-3 hours each night! This has made things a lot harder for us here.

Well, dh just got me really annoyed. Ds was getting annoyed, and I told him he might need to be changed - which he decided to give him to me. I don't see why it would be so horrible for him to change ds once in a while. Then, he went downstairs where the changing table is (which had my laundry basket on it) so he decided it would be best to THROW it on the GROUND!!! I would imagine that it sounds like the best idea.... My husband has been driving me crazy recently. I am really annoyed right now! I slack around and do nothing all day - I didn't take out the laundry from the dryer last night and he had to get his uniform from it this morning. But it got done drying last night at like 1am. I am getting pretty tired of dealing with him, and would much rather be with ds.

Cooking
May 14, 2008 12:44 pm

It has been an interesting day so far!! I am part of a cooking club here, and it met today at 11am. I really like to go; basically we bring food, eat, and talk. Later we send the recipes to everyone! I had decided to make this awesome jello (rootbeer float gelatin, it is really good!). I hadn't made it in a year or so (made it in school) so it didn't turn out wuite right. (Besides I had to go buy sugar b/c my parents use so much and we didn't have anymore - we had shared our sugar). Then I was going to make a lemon bread since my first one didn't work. But we didn't have flour! Great, I was scrambling for a recipe... so I tried the gelatin again, but this time with orange soda!  It didn't really set AGAIN!! And I had very little time until we had to go! So I made a box of pudding and whipped cream. I did bring the orange jello (kinda jello). It was actually good, but wasn't set.

I am just having some frustrations living with my parents.  I grew up with their life style, so it wasn't annoying. But now that I have lived elsewhere, I am VERY diiferent when it comes to cleaning and organization, which my parents have very little. I feel bad because they have been helping with ds and everything. But the mess is driving me CRAZY!!!

The other thing that has gotten to me recently is that I was planning on going to a wedding this sat. Well when my parents finally rsvped they were told that it was only for couples (which mostly I wanted to go so my extended family could meet my ds.) The big problem now is that basically I have a complete Saturday with absolutely nothing to do, nowhere to go, and noone to be with. I dread weekends at times. Dh works ALL day with like a 10 min break at home to eat lunch! (Yippee). There is this Spring Festival going on at a church in town, but it is hard going places just me and ds. I feel so alone at times and like I don't fit places at all!

Besides that, I had an awesome time at Cooking Club, it helps the time go by. I get SO bored at home (even though I could do a COMPLETE clean of my parents house -they would not be too happy though probably -my mom keeps old tops of bottles and weird useless stuff like that). 

Tomorrow will be interesting. We are spending time with my brother and my future SIL. No big problem, but my dh doesn't always like being with them too much. But I think it will be okay (we are trying to decide on a Father's Day gift for my dad -picking out a grill to buy him). And we are hoping to clean a little and watch The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

Okay, this is getting long, but I just had to tell you about the incredible day I was having!!! I am hoping to figure out something for Saturday, or I will have a boring old day! I really like talking to you guys on MT!!!
