I'm cranky. And no, it's not PMS. The kids are home this week and I'm frazzled. We have plans every day, which is good, but I'm still with them 24/7, all of them. Today Laszlo had his annual eye exam and we were all at the office for three hours. And the doctor mentioned surgery, which he never mentioned to me before. So that was upsetting. He did say it was not an emergency and that it "could wait one year, three years, whatever," so that was good. In plain terms, Laszlo's eyes jiggle back and forth. Strangely it doesn't effect his vision. But people with this condition (both my brothers and my mom, for example) automatically find their "null zone" which is the position their eyes jiggle the least. For Laszlo, it means putting his head down a bit. My brother Seth turns his head to the left. The surgery would change his gaze. The dr. said it was because putting your head down can effect driving and sports down the road, and can put stress on the neck.
I'm in absolutely no rush to do this. Robert, of course, thinks that the sooner the better if it may effect his ability to play sports (read: fit in with his friends). So...that's just the cherry on the cake today.
And Ella didn't nap all day. She finally fell asleep on the way home from the doctor around 5 and then woke up a half hour later. She ate a ton and then was miserable since. Thankfully Robert took pity on me and took her for a drive so I could try and regain some sanity.
The kids just never stop talking to me. It's lovely and I hate it at the same time. I'm SO living that Family Guy clip everyone has seen with the lil kid calling his mother a zillion times and finally she answers him and he just says, "hi."
The summer went too fast. My bro and sil are leaving on Saturday. I'm sad. And the summer wasn't at all what I expected. I thought I'd be in bikini shape and be lounging at the pool every day. I have a herniated disc in my back and had to slow down working out for a few weeks (until I saw the orthopedist) so I fell off the work out wagon. I'll be back, but that sort of sucks too.
I did get some things in the house in order this summer, which is great. But it's still always a mess and I cannot keep it neat. That's sort of making me crazy too. I can clean the kitchen so there is nothing on any countertop and not a crumb to be found, and within very few hours, it's a pig sty again. I don't understand it. I really hate it, I can't stand walking around and seeing mess in every room, and it's almost more frustrating to spend time cleaning and putting away just to have it crapped all over again. I don't even get to enjoy the order.
Man, if I didn't just get over my period, I'd be sure I'm PMSing.
Oh, and my mom's leaving tomorrow for over 2 weeks on a European cruise, so that blows for me and the kids too.
Ok, no more venting. At least for this post.
