Nothing EVER goes my way (vent)

OMG. This week I just feel like all I've done is yell. Bryanna is almost 10 now (less than a month to go) so she and I are at each other's throats because she seems to think she's the momma. Meanwhile, I took Vic yesterday to go get his 11 year old boosters and he got up this morning in a MOOOOOODDDDD. First, I didn't get to do uniforms over the weekend so I did them last night. He was mad because they were in the dryer not hung up in his closet. Then he couldn't get his sandwich box to open. He kept arguing with me that his backpack was upstairs when he was standing right beside it. I then made the biggest mistake by not reading any of the signs, and asked him to take the trash out this morning. That set into a long tirade about how nothing ever goes his way and if he hadn't gotten those shots that he'd have gotten everything done on time. I had never been SO glad to see his bus.
Okay, over the weekend we went to meet new people. In and of itself is not a bad thing but I guess because we had a small birthday party for him this weekend that it was an overload to go meet the new people. Okay, so the husband of this family introduces himself and Victor immediately shut down and threw both his hands behind his back when he tried to shake hands. This doesn't bug me and didn't bother the couple that we met but DH lost his mind and got SO angry. So needless to say DH and I started fighting on Saturday about how he needs to back off some on him. Sunday, Victor had a great day but Bryanna was a nightmare. She was correcting DH and I with every word we said. We would tell the kids something like "aggrivate means to annoy" and she'd say "you mean frustrate" WOW, who knew that that would set both of us off but Dh and I see red everytime she says something like that now. Okay, on to yesterday, Victor had an anxiety attack all day because he was getting those shots after his physical and it gave him a stomach ache all day. Sigh. Nothing I did would reassure him, even tho I told him he was just getting the two shots. Turns out there is a second varicella shot that neither kid had and I didn't know they needed so Victor got a third shot, and Mom lied. No matter that I didn't know about it, I lied.
It's so frustrating sometimes. There is nothing I could do about the shot or about how nothing was going his way this morning and I know that he will harp on it all day because I couldn't fix it. So this frustrates me. Oh, did I mention that there has only been 6 days of school and they have changed Vic's bus driver already? SIGH!!!!!!! He is not happy because the aide is now driving the bus and the new aide on the bus is a little old lady who Vic says "smells bad". I asked him to keep it to himself tho that this lady smells and see if she doesn't turn out to be a nice lady.
Well, it's payday so I need to go. Thanks for letting me vent.

((((HUGS))))) I'm sorry your week has been so awful! As the school year goes on it will get better. It's such a stressful time. (and 10 yr old girls don't help much! you could always lock her in her room until she's 18-- or use duct tape on her mouth! :-P)

Why do they always seem to feed off each other? It's the same in our house. If it's not one, it's the other...then yesterday, for whatever reason, it was our NT child who was making me nuts. Go Figure!
