so I am frustrated.... why do husbands.. or my husband- not feel that they need to carry any weight around at home? why is the laundry- dishes- cleaning- kids- lunches- stories- lawn- allll my responsibility?? he can come home easily from work- plop on the couch and not do a thing for an hour????
ugggggg men and women are so different...

TO HAVE A THIRD OR TO HAVE A VASCETOMY??

so the topic tonight was... do we go ahead and follow through with Hubby's apt. to get a vasectomy... or do we leave the option open for another baby????
I don't know... im pretty sure i am done.... but with both boys going to school now- and growing up so fast... as the apt date approaches.. I am not so sure that I am ready to eliminate our chances of ever having a baby again??????
or am i testing fate? i have heard so many times from people- ohhhh if i only stopped at two! the third completely wrecked havoc on life...
But then - we have never had mellow - easy going babies/kids/life- ??/
have to sleep on it- so tired

WITCHING HOUR

well if the hour between 4 to 6 or 7 - isn't bad enough already... I just found out..... My grand fathers very very best friend - and also the Dr. that saved my life basically when I was diagnosed with diabetes at age 11 and had a blood sugar of 990.. passed away...

I feel so sad- for his loss, for my grand fathers loss... for not being there to comfort my grandfather.. who is miles and miles away- alone and trying to care for my grandmother who is now in a nursing home- slowly slipping away - deeper and deeper into the fog and bottomless pit of Alzheimer's.
So now I am trying to feed the boys- clean up their MESS.. get bath/pj's teeth ..stories done.. THEN i can start it all over again with making the grown up dinner... clean up.. folding laundry...and the list goes on and on...
Thank god for Chardonnay

going to bed

Big Day in this household... For the first time in 5 years,,, I had a 1/2 day alone..... my eldest is now in Kindergarten alll day- 5 days a week ,.. and my youngest- harrison just started pre-school 3 mornings.. its not a lot.... but for me... who has literally been attached at the hip w/ my children for 5 years- its a big ..nice start.
And so far everyone is enjoying it-harrison finally feels like a big boy- constantly asking everyone to feel his muscles.. And i see a new confidence in Gabe- I think being so busy and productive- after a long summer off- is great for him.
So all and all- we are good..,.. its been one hell of a year- but things are looking up!
