11/24 in --

Oh my gosh, I had such an exhausting weekend. My kids enjoyed it though! Friday I finally got out of the house and ventured to Target with my sister. We picked out matching sweaters for the boys for their Christmas photos. When we got home, she had to leave to go to Tulsa to pick up her son and I cleaned a bit. My kids went to bed very late that night.

Lorelei woke up a million times this weekend. Friday night was particularly bad. She woke up crying a lot, and at one point she was happy and wanted to play. She had a lot of gas in her tummy. I accidentally ate cheese. :( Poor kid. I felt so bad.

Saturday I got myself and the kids ready to go to my mom’s house. Kara was staying there with my nephew and they wanted to do something with us. It’s an hour away and I had to drive there again by myself (I did it two weeks ago) with the kids. Jacob is still writing a paper. It’s taken him… months. I was angry that his procrastinating is causing more stress for me. He basically got a whole day to himself. So I was not in a great mood when I got to my mom’s and she noticed. I hate telling her about my problems because I don’t want her to get the wrong idea about things (she often does), or blow things up out of proportion (she often does that too). Ah, well.

My mom wanted to take the kids to a place called Going Bonkers (it’s like Chuck E. Cheese, without all the plastic tubes and mouse costumes). I had to physically show Cannon how to play with stuff and go down the slides. He had a blast though once he wasn’t so shy about things! He laughed at the other kids.
Lorelei was a really content baby the entire time, so that was nice.

I left about an hour before it was supposed to get dark, since I don’t like driving in the dark. We spent the evening hanging out with my sister and stuff. I love to see her and my nephew! I don’t get to often enough.

Jacob tried to come onto me that night and I was like wtf, dude. I didn’t get enough sleep AND I had an exhausting day… I have no fucking energy for anything. He always expects me to do most of the work anyway so I definitely was not wanting to. I was still annoyed with him too. I don’t understand why he thought I’d be in the mood.

I explained all of that to him and why I was upset with him. I guess it was fine after that, but I’m still tired of it. He always says that he feels guilty for leaving me alone with the kids so much, but really, nothing changes. So I’m not sure what I should do. I honestly think this is more my deal to get through than his to work with me on.

Anyway, we got the kids’ Christmas pictures done on Sunday. Oh my gosh, it was crazy busy. They overbooked and we had to wait for awhile and I was afraid the kids would be too cranky to take good photos, but they were actually really great! I’ll post some when I have more time.

The house is completely trashed, so I have my work cut out for me today. :\ I just wish people in my house other than me would clean up after themselves. I feel like a broken record, man.

We are on the last two episodes of the Gilmore Girls and I am not ready for it to be over. ;(
