Major Vent coming...consider yourself warned!
Today is my day off from my job. My job may be about to turn into a 7 day a week job for the next few weeks...heck until Xmas even.
So, I'd planned to spend today getting my house into decent shape, hoping that if it starts as clean as I can get it, we can maintain it if I'm not home as much. As in, Dude and kids need to step up and help out more.
So, I wake up with a headache, a viral thing in my throat and just to add the final touch...my period complete with cramps.
I managed to get the kitchen clean, all the counters are wiped down, the fridge has been totally cleaned out, walls and shelves washed. Any moldy bread, stale chips, stale cookies, etc have been tossed.
Then I go upstairs to do the bills and other bookkeeping chores, dangit, forgot to grab the electric bill from the table downstairs! Run down to grab it, stepping over the dog laying at the bottom of the stairs. Said dog choses to stand up, throwing me off balance and I end up spraining my ankle (again, I have stretched out ligaments, ankles sprain easily).
So, now I still have to clean bathrooms, cook dinner, and try to get a bit more done while hobbling around, sucking throat lozenges, craving chocolate and heating pads, and generally being grumpy.
ok, venting helped...thanks to whoever listened.
