I Was Horrible Today

I wish today could have gone better :( For some reason I
woke up, looked at Snookums and subconsciously decided it
was going to be a "hate everything Snookums says, does or
doesn't do" day. So I spent my day being a bitch and
Snookums spent his day with his proverbial tail between
his legs. I apologized to him. I know it's wrong to treat
him like that and I scolded myself for taking advantage of
his adoration of me. Why does that man put up with me?

I got mad because he sat on the bed watching TV instead of
helping me get the kids fed and dressed. I yelled at him
for not putting gas in the RAV (the gas light was on) and
got even more angry when he passed the gas station by our
house (where the price was $2.88) and I yelled some more
when he stopped at a random 76 station we never use
because the price is always high ($2.99). I got upset
because he didn't seem happy to see Annie (or not as happy
as I thought he should be). I got angry because I decided
to cut the grass and he didn't want to help me. Then there
was about a hundred million other things I nit-picked
about. I was horrible today :(

When we picked Annie up from camp this morning it wasn't
nearly as emotional as it was last year. She was happy to
see us, but she didn't come running and she didn't cry. I
wasn't disappointed. I'm glad she had a great time. I
didn't miss her as much as I did last year, either. I
think that's a good thing.

As I already mentioned, I cut the grass this afternoon. I
felt like I needed to get out and do something physical.
It needed to be done anyhow. Snookums did come out as I
was finishing up and raked up the grass clippings for me.
That was nice of him, considering he had been running from
me all day.

Right now I'm hanging out in the living room and he's in
the bedroom. We're not mad. Or I'm not mad, I should say.
He's watching football and I'm watching some special on
Obsessive Compulsive Hoarders and thanking all that is
right and good in the world that I'm not one of them,
because it's nasty! Ciao.
