Touchy Feely

The question was asked as to why he is being so touchy/feely again. I guess I never did address that, huh. So here's the scoop.

Ever since my Uncle died my family has kind of been in a rut. I can't explain it, but well, when someone died unexpectedly, it happens. We went through it when my brother died and we're going through it again. Basically, no one wants to do anything fun because they're worried that my aunt isn't up to it.

Anyway he started bugging me a little while ago about a concert that was coming to a local university a month or so ago. I wasn't keen on going because a.) I don't like Him, b.) I'd seen the artist before and wasn't impressed and not a big fan of him, and c.) just didn't sound fun to me. Well then one day he brought it up again and for some reason I made the mistake of saying my family would love to go to that, it's too bad I couldn't get tickets for them. Next thing I knew I was on the phone with my Aunt asking if they'd be interested in going, and next thing I knew we had 15 tickets for this stupid show. This was after he surprised me with tickets to one of my favorite bands that is going to be here a week later and is letting me go without him. Ugh!

So anyway we have these 15 tickets and basically if I don't be the perfect little wifey that he wants me to be, he has a letter wrote up to send to my family telling them what a terrible person I am and detailing all the reasons he can't be with me anymore and all this other nonsense that will be sent, along with revoking the tickets, and just ruining my family life before I'm ready for him to.

No I haven't given in to what he really wants, and I won't either. He has told me he won't wait forever for that and has even tried putting a deadline on it, but with any luck it won't come to that.

I was told I have to do what's best for me and the girls and right now, this is it. My kids love their friends in the neighborhood and their school and their teachers, and so right now, taking them away from all of that isn't an option. Plus now they've been promised a trip to Disney in March and I can't let them down where that is concerned. I told him he has until June and I know if I've not liked him for this long, what's another 8 or 9 months, right??? I know, I'm a terrible person. **sigh**

Tuesday Rainy Tuesday

Had a pretty decent night last night =) The girls were well behaved, he had darts, spent the night catching up with friends…it was a good night.

Then he came home…I was in the bathroom getting ready for bed and I thought I heard him home. I came out of the bathroom, and he was hanging out in the girls’ room watching a movie with them **rolls eyes** He went in the bathroom to do his thing and I went to bed. I was so tired I was asleep by the time he was done. So what does he do? Wakes me up, of course. I could have killed him. Then it was a hands on night, so I got no sleep. I’m so sick of it. Right now I’m stuck until at least March so that the kids can go to Disney. I love how he uses the kids against me, but the last thing I want to do is disappoint them, so I let him **sigh**

Not too much else is going on. A good friend of mine invited me to a party at her place in a couple weeks, and I’m looking forward to that. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a chance to hang out with her and I’m hoping to get to see her new baby, as well. October is actually shaping up to be a pretty busy month. I have my friends party on the 10th, a huge family outing on the the 11th, a concert on the 18th and my anniversary is mixed in there somewhere too. He’s already made plans for the day that don’t include me, so that’s a load off my shoulder. Oh and he’s also going out of town overnight for work…WHOO FREAKING HOO!!!! (Can ya tell I’m excited about that day?) I also have a couple days off of work, which the girlies are excited about, too….It may turn out to be a decent month…but I won’t hold my breath on that!!!

My Weekend

This weekend was just as I predicted…excessively long.

Friday it started as soon as I walked in the door. We were at each other’s throat and I guess it was my fault, I don’t know. I didn’t want to be there and I took it out on him. I don’t know I just don’t know what to do anymore or how to be. Saturday was more of the same. I took the girls to dance and then all of us went to meet my mom and my grandma at Fridays for lunch. Then we attempted to take the diva to get sneakers. She lived up to her name there, that’s for sure. We were there for over an hour just trying to find shoes for one child. God Bless the sales girl who waited on us because she went over and beyond for us and did it all with a smile on her face. I really hope she gets commission because she so deserves it!!! After that I had other places I wanted to go to get things taken care of but it was already almost time for the Borders party I told them I’d take them to. We were walking in and the Diva starts having a meltdown about her new shoes. I told him to take the other two in and I’d meet them in there. We get in there and the event beforehand wasn’t over so the twinners wanted to go and look at Webkinz, so I took them over…they didn’t have enough money for new ones, so we had a meltdown in the store. I was so frustrated with him, the shoe thing, and just life in general, that I told them all we were just going to go home and we did. The girls are still mad at me, but I just couldn’t do it. I went home and went to bed and tried to have a nice night after that, but failed miserably. He kept hanging on me and touching me and everytime I told him to stop he just got pissed off.

Yesterday was more of the same only my family was thrown in the mix. We went to my Mom’s and she started talking about the Disney trip. My heart just isn’t in it. He kept trying to talk about it even after we left my Mom’s and I basically said it’s not going to happen. He wasn’t real pleased, but I told him I was just being realistic. Then we were at my grams and I was trying to show off the girls’ dance show and she saw maybe two seconds and then went to pay attention to my cousins. I don’t know why I’m surprised. She’s always liked her step-grandchildren better. She’s pulled this crap since the day my first cousin was born, and she’s reminded me of what a screw up I am since the day I was born. I just wish I would have slept through all of yesterday. I could have gone without the day ever happening. Last night was more of the same of Saturday. Him touching me and making me want to disappear and getting pissed off when I told him to knock it off.

All weekend all I wanted to do was have it be Monday and be back at work, but now that I'm here, I'm really not feeling any better. Things are going wrong with accounts and my work schedule and it's just a Monday and I don't need a Monday right now...I'm sick of Mondays.

Back For More

So I’m back. We’ll see how long this lasts before my husband figures out it’s back and I have to take it down again, but for now I’m back, so yeah!!!! LOL

Can I just tell you how much I hate Fridays? Not only is it the most hectic day of the week at work (for the most part), but it also means that I’m looking at three long, exhausting, excruciatingly painful days at home. I barely make it through a night at home let alone a whole weekend. Best part is, he’s already getting on my nerves and I’m not even home yet. I asked him if he could start a pizza when he gets home since my Diva child has dance tonight…that gets him going on things. Seriously? I asked you to do one little thing and you’re going to run with it…oh yea, going to be a fun weekend.

Speaking of my diva, she needs new sneakers. I wish she would have told me this two or three weeks ago when I went through hell trying to buy her sneakers for dance. Then I could have gotten them both in one trip. No she waits until now to tell me that her gym sneakers hurt and has the blisters to prove it…sigh. (Sidenote..Just got an email from my husband…**rolls eyes**) this is going to be fun. Last time I had to get her sneakers it was a night filled with drama. I’m sure this time will be worse, as her father informed her the only place she can get them is Penneys because he has coupons (read: he has a credit card). I guarantee I’ll end up writing a rubber check to cover her sneakers because she won’t be able to find any that she likes at Penneys.

That brings me to my breaking news I found out last night…he’s not paying the mortgage. Well I think he’s paying it, but definitely not on time. I knew the mortgage company had called earlier in the week but I figured he was trying to see about lowering our payment or something again. Well last night he was sitting on the couch with his bills spread out (and I was wondering why he didn’t do this last Thursday since he got paid last Friday) and I saw the mortgage payment. I made a comment about them being on the answering machine and making sure he got the message. He says, “Oh, they probably just want paid.” Record scratch, everything stops…”I’m sorry, what?” “I haven’t had a chance to pay them yet this month.” Hello!!! It’s 9/25…it was due 9/1! I know I was bad with our bills, but I never, and I repeat never was late on a credit bill and definitely not the mortgage. I could have killed him!

Then there is work. Don’t get me wrong, I love my job and the people I work with (for the most part), but today has about pushed me over the edge. I had a special section I was working on for Saturday and I saw the printed copy of it today. My customers are going to be so unhappy. I warned the one about their placement and I’ve already been warned that the owner is going to go through the roof…lovely. We have another special recruitment section coming out on Sunday. I know our ad builders are busy and everything, but could you take more than 30 seconds to put an ad together? I sold a half page and it looks like shit. I am embarrassed to even send it to the client.

It has definitely been one of those days. Once I get done crying on the way home, I think I’ll make myself a drink. Oh wait, diva has dance…guess I’ll have to take a rain check on that Bay breeze =(
