It has yet again been a while since I have posted, I promise I will make more of an effort to do this.
Tonight I made a delicious chicken dinner with mashed potatoes. After cleaning up our son, who was covered in BBQ chicken and mashed potatoes, I asked my better half to do the dishes since I cooked.
for those of you who understand where this is going, you are likely laughing.
Two days ago, I had to have a second dental procedure done to remove a fragment left from an earlier procedure, so I am not exactly on my A game. So by this point I have now asked D2 to do the dishes again. his response "maybe"...
lets give this a third try, "so will you do the dishes for me?"
his response... " I have to poop."
Why do men always have to poop when you want them to do something ? seriously???
* Ok Breath deep and do not murder him*
So of course by this point I'm now thoroughly annoyed with him....
I am sure I do not have to leave you guessing as to who did the dishes....
I had lots of time to contemplate over the soapy water and bits of food floating about.
I have realized 2 Things...
1) I now know why my Mother was a lunatic most of the days
and
2) my mom and grandma where right.
When I was little I always dreamed of being just like my grandma. She raised me for a good chunk of my life and I dreamed that If I worked like her I would have a job that would allow me to be home in time for my family to have a good meal in front of them, a clean house an enough time to relax at the end of the day. I am sure if my grandma is reading this now she is laughing...
So being a stay at home mom is SOOO far off of my delusional fantasy. But hey I can be a dreamer right ? maybe one day. to wishful ?
so if you don't have children.... you will never understand.... you wait... because well now I get it... I understand why my mom and grandmother would lose it before anything got accomplished... Mom and Grandma I am so sorry...
on a side note,
This often rings to true.... but it isn't always the case...
Sometimes they are genuinely behaving.....
Have a great evening ladies!
and remember to breath....
