Good morning ladies, it is Monday and the start of yet another work week. Our weather really stinks, more clouds and rain and it is depressing to say the least. Boys got home around 6ish last night so we had a nice family dinner. Although my son Rob had some smart *ss remark about not liking it. Kids were in the den after dinner so Bill and I slipped upstairs and watched some TV on our bed all cuddled up, it was that kind of night. Katie is moping around and she has her moments, she cried again last night. But I am hoping it will pass and I am trying to be patient with her feelings. I will be heading into the shower in a minute then off to the wonderful office. Lucky my boss is in NYC this morning for a closing and I am hoping that means he will be out most of the day. Tonight is Katie's chorus concert..........last one! Yeah! She did not take chorus next year, thank goodness. Those are such long nights. On the up side we usually hit the diner after since we do not have time to eat a normal dinner before hand, so no cooking for me. Well that is about it from me, not very exciting I am afraid. I hope everyone has a wonderful day today..
Like Deb said it's another looking day yet again here on the island. I woke up this morning with the thoughts that I would also put on my big girl panties and adjust my attitude since this weekend it has been the 'tude from he**. I've been working on it until I realized that I seem to have misplaced a little more than $200. Each payday I take a bit of money and put it into a Christmas fund so I have money come the holiday season. It seems to have disappeared. It's always in the same place and yet it's not there now. It's simple I remove the envelope to put money in and put it back in the same spot. Absolutely no clue. My H is still clueless as to what is bothering me although in yet another melt down I explained exactly what is bothering me. Absolutely nothing...he knows I'm upset but still doesn't get the underlying reasons and then he gets all defensive. He's not going to change but my attitude is going to have to or I'm going to explode. Just once I would like to hear what can I do to help or maybe just once do something all on his own to. I think the winner was while I was donned in rubber gloves cleaning the bathroom and he asked why I was doing that since he does that...hello...you haven't been in there to clean a bathroom in over a month and then the critique of how the bathroom should be cleaned. Between the anger emotions I then went into a crying jag over some baby clothes I found that belonged to each of the kids. And yes it would be lovely to have DD come and help clean out her room. I've suggested it over and over again and she did do a certain amount but now she's overwhelmed every weekend with wedding details and I can't wait any longer if this project is going to get done. So for now-it's box it up and try to reorganize the mess to make it fit. I did tell her that after the wedding she has to weed out and I know their 1 bedroom co-op doesn't have much room and I'll store her teaching stuff but the rest she has to weed out.
Anyway, enough bi****ing and whining from me. I'm just in a bad place mentally at the moment and I have to figure out how to get past it and leave the anger somewhere alongside the road.
I do hope the weather clears out a bit so I can take Otto out for a walk. We went out yesterday but it was so damp and nasty and it started to rain before we got home. This weather certainly isn't a mood enhancer! I need to get back into the exercise routine again too. I haven't got in a good workout since Wednesday so I need to do something about that.
It's back to work today. The other coworker in the office is out on her 2 day vacation that we don't know exactly where she's getting the time from. She'll end up with 3 weeks just like me...sounds like someone else that used to work there. She's a very personable person and easy to work with but she's got some frightening similarities.
Margie-it was good to hear from you. I'm glad that your new man is treating you as you should be treated. He sounds like a very sweet, considerate guy. Thoughts and prayers for your upcoming surgery.
Li-Deb-so sorry to hear about Tiger. Big hugs coming to you and Katie.
Time to go get my big girl panties on and face the working world and all the rest of the world as well. Hope you all have a good start to the upcoming week.

Good Morning Everyone,
Woke this morning with a wicked sinus headache but a good dose of allergy medicine and a cup of hot tea seem to have it packing it's bags.
