Frustrations?

AvidVertigo

Air them out here:

Doesn't matter what they are...just post what you are feeling.  It could be bump related, baby related, cleaning related, or ANYTHING!

Mine is our house.  I really wish I could get DH to help me more around the house.  He does good for about 2 weeks and then just stops and everything goes to hell because I can't keep up.  I think I am going to have take one room at a time.  It really sucks now that Hudson is crawling though. 

I have asked him for weeks to put up the baby gate.  I guess it will take me to go down and get the freaking drill from the basement and "act" like I am going to put it up (that will scare him - me with powertools) and then maybe he will do it for me!

My hubby thinks that if he tells me that he knows how much I do that it will some how make things better, why not help with some of it. I am also thinking about getting some power tools out this weekend too and not because I want to but things need to get done and if I don't do them myself them it wont get done.

 Also.. When there are two things that need to be done at the same time and I ask him what one does he want to do he ALWAYS picks the one that doesnt involve a baby task. Hmmm ????

while I was prego & just after I had to have some surgeries for a cyst that kept coming back...well I don't know if it was that or just the fact that the boss lady didn't like me too much but I was laid off my job...I have been on unemployment since then....we are getting by but its not a comfy by & I had never planned to be a SAHM...at first I had a really hard time with it & actually started counselling over it...Just an adjustment disorder & have been doing really well since then...Now I am trying to find a job & it seems IMPOSSIBLE!! I don't know if its because I have been off for so long now, people are just not hiring...or what?! I love my lo to pieces but don't drive & am constantly stuck in the house with him...I wish I had my licence back (had a little too much fun when I was 24 & don't have the $$ to get back) & could actually go do fun things like play dates & such...argh...When does life stop sucking & why does everything I need always have to revolve around money & the lack of it?!

I'm pretty tired of DH's apologies for making a mess. I love cleaning when I get the chance, and when I do I go all out. It feels amazing and I do what I can to make it stay that way. HE on the other hand doesn't even notice I have things organized and makes it a wreck again. He drops his clothes anywhere in our room and bathroom, and he leaves things out of place, like say his deodorant/our toothpaste/his razor. I organize the bathroom counter separating our stuff and making lots of room, and in seconds his stuff is right back all over the place, and then more stuff appears on the counter that wasn't there before! UGH! Plus I'll set clean towels or his clean clothes on the bed to hint that maybe he could fold them and put them away, and without fail he always takes them and puts them over our laundry basket. That' not where they fvcking go!!

So then when he finally notices what he's doing and sees that our room is a pit he apologizes.. He says "I feel so bad that I'm screwing up your job of cleaning and I'm really sorry." Oh you feel bad? Why don't you do something about it? It just baffels me. lol vent over.

Mine is also DH related and I am really frustrated right now (so I apologize if this turns into a rant) because I just got off the phone with him. He watches the boys in the morning while I work until 1 when he goes to work. He takes them to his Mom's for her to watch from 1-5.

For two flippin weeks now he has been going over early (like 9) to "help" his mom. She is moving into a new house right now so last week he was helping her get ready for a garage sale she had Saturday. And guess where Sawyer is because the floors are dirty at the new house...in a freakin pack n play all day.

My understanding is it would be back to the normal this week...but guess where he is right now? "Hanging out" at his mom's new house "helping". It wouldn't be so bad but I am working and in nursing school and all the time he devotes to helping her he could be doing laundry, dishes, etc. so I don't have to do them at 10 o'clock at night. He get's so defensive about his mommy so any time I comment about it it turns into war (so right now I am leaving it alone).

I wish I could just feel normal and not so uptight. After having a stillbirth in 09...life has just changed so much. I wish my house was clean and that I didnt have to worry about it all the time. I mean I have to do everything including picking up DS from the sitter even if hubby is home first......I just feel like i have the whole world on my shoulders.

LO has started crawling and I knew this was going to happen sometime this month (she's been trying so hard). I've been begging DH for the past month to child proof our kitchen cabinets.  This past Sunday he did 2 then we went to a 1 year b-day party for our friends LO. At the party we ran into another friend of ours and she also has a 1 yr old. She is married and her mom lives with her and gives her full time help. She has her MIL down the street and aunts and uncles in town to help.  DH asks if she has child proofed the kitchen cabinets yet and she responds "no, I just havent had time." So DH OFFERS TO CHILD PROOF HER KITCHEN.  UMMM! what about child proofing for your own kid?!@!

Mine's grad school related.  I'm sick of one our professors assigning busy work assignments. It's the last semester before graduation. My homework is to read a 40 page article and write a 1/2 page summary. Really, a BS reading reflection that I don't want to write, and she's not gonna read. Come one, this isn't undergrad.  It's supposed to be a meaningful program for working professionals.
