An Afternoon Interlude

****

My emotions were on more of an even keel today. None of
the moodiness I experienced yesterday. That's because
Snookums kept his word and spent time with me :) Of course
one thing led to another and we ended up having sex. It
was okay at first, but towards the end it started to hurt
a little and I was glad when Snookums was finally
finished. His penis might as well have been a fillet
knife, because it felt like I was being filleted like a
fish. I snuck into the bathroom as soon as Snookums fell
asleep and put some Epifoam on the stitches that were
rubbed wrong. I didn't want Snookums to think he'd hurt
me. It wasn't his fault.

This afternoon Sue took Annie to Silverdale to put gas in
her car (at Safeway. She needed Annie to help her get
there). Kiki and Keenan were napping, so Snookums and I
tried to sneak in an afternoon interlude (if you know what
I mean), but it just hurt too much. I couldn't relax
enough even to let Snookums finish, let alone enjoy it
myself. I had to ask him to stop. It looks like I'll be
needing another couple of weeks to finish healing before
I'll be like new again. I hope I'll be like new. I'd hate
for there to be residual pain, because that happened after
Annie was born. Using a tampon was uncomfortable for a
long time. I can't imagine what sex would be like.

We had a quiet day at home like we have most of the days
Sue has been here. I refuse to entertain her on our dime.
She costs us so much money when she comes to visit. She
goes through everything faster than we do and it adds up
quick. She uses paper towels and toilet paper at an
alarming rate, she feeds the cats more often than I do
(the expensive wet food, not the more reasonably priced
dry food, of course). She throws one item of clothing into
the washing machine, but uses the same amount of
detergent. If we go out, she has us pay for everything.
She doesn't even offer to pay. It's ridiculous. It's
gotten to the point where I'm ready to tell her not to
come if she can't afford SOMETHING. Even if it's just
taking us out to dinner once. She believes that children
should take care of their parents when they grow up.
Unfortunately for her, we don't share her ideals. Once a
parent, always a parent in my book. That means you take
care of your children, not the other way around. I'll be
there for my kids any way I can (within reason) and when
we get old, we'll have plans in place so our children
don't have to care for us. It's not fair to them and I'm
not letting it happen to me. Sue better have a good
nursing home picked out, because she's not living in my
house. Sorry. I hate to complain about my mother-in-law.
It's so cliche. Tomorrow she leaves and the complaining
will be over :)

Snookums and I are devastated. Keenan's swing is broken.
It's brand new. I just bought, there's not reason for it
to be burned out already, but it just won't start. We've
fiddled with the batteries, replaced the batteries, read
the manual cover-to-cover, but nothing is working. So, it
looks like I won't be getting much sleep tonight. That's
the only place Keenan likes to sleep. Right now he's
tolerating his bouncy seat, but not as well as he likes
the swing. I'm getting in contact with Graco tomorrow if
it kills me. Keenan needs his swing and I need my sleep.
Ciao until tomorrow.
