Dee's Journal
Well today is Saturday! The kids carved pumpkins this morning and they looked real cute. It's chilly outside today, or I would have made them stay out for a while. As it is they are now inside watching cartoons.
I've made my to do list today and taken my Stackers, so Im ready to get my butt in gear. Robert's working, so it's just me and the kids. I'm hoping Stephanie will help me with Zack so I can get a bunch done. I'd like to have my list finished today!
Nothing much else going on right now. I'll be back later!
What is wrong with me? I can't seem to get it together today. I have so much to do today and I have only half picked up the livingroom. I was doing so good till Zack got sick and stayed home two days. Maybe that threw off my groove. hummm.
Now Zack is home and that makes it ten times harder to get anything done. Maybe I can get him to lay down and take a nap. He's eating peanut butter crackers and looking at a book now.
Note to self *Can't forget to go pick up Stephanie after the basketball game this evening!~
I was doing so good on being organized and getting a system down. Then Pam started talking to me again. Or maybe it was using me, since she's still fooling around on her husband with what's his name. At any rate, since she's wanted to clean to together online I've fallen off the wagon. I just can't get back into it, maybe it's her negative talk about how we can't do it anyway. Or her always talking about how rotten our kids are, she's just a depressing person. Think I have to have a talk with her, either she's gotta change the talk, or we can't talk online anymore. I need to get back into the swing of things. Guess I have to go back to the "APOA" site and start posting my todo list and getting back on track.
Okay, this is what Im going to do. The weekend is coming and I know Robert has to work. So I will make a list of what all needs doing this weekend today. I will also work on the laundry, getting it hung up and finish fixing a nice dinner. The "Sniper" movie comes on tonight and I really want to see it. I got it saved to come on when it's time. Course, with having to go get Stephanie this evening, I bet I'm going to miss it. Didn't even think about that!
Oh well, let me get off here and go do something! Took some stacker 2s so hopefully they will help.
Later Gator!
Well, checked the dryer! She's dead. The hose wasn't stopped up, but the back of it is getting extremely hot. So hot in fact, that the metal in the back of the dryer in one spot is turning white after only a few minutes. Scared to use it anymore for fear it will sit the house on fire. Guess I'll be hanging clothes on the line for a while. Anyone for cold underwear? :)
Not sure how this journal will progress, but for now I'm just going to use it to talk about my boring life as a housewife. I use to call myself a stay-at-home mom, but since all my children are now in school, atleast for most of the day, that's kinda not true anymore. I'm really not sure what I do anymore. Kinda sad when you think about it. I mean yea I clean (though you can never tell it) and I cook, and help the kids with homework, all the basic stuff, but what about me as a person. Who am I really. I think I've lost myself somewhere along the line of time in the past 13 years of marriage.
Speaking of my marriage, I'm miserable and I don't know how to fix it. I mean we no longer communicate. Sure we talk, about his job, my day, the kids, but we don't talk about us. I feel like we have lost the us part of the marriage and I don't know how I feel about that. It's almost like I have different dreams than he does, somewhere along the line of life we separated our paths. Sounds kinda weird I know, guess I'll have to think about this more.
My kids are great as far as kids go. I mean, no they don't always listen to what I say or tell them to do, but what kid does? I always get compliments on how well behaved and well mannered they are away from home, so thats always good!
Well, Zack will be home soon, so I guess I better get up and go do some housework. I have to fix the dryer if I can. It keeps over heating and I think the dryer hose may be clogged up. Guess I'll see in few mins. Got a turkey in the oven for dinner. That's low carb, so it will help with my diet (I always seem to be on).
Oh well, one day I'll get it all fix!
More later!
