Total whiner pity party.

Lots of bratty sounding whining ahead. Just as a heads up.

DH told me not to worry about cleaning my super messy house yesterday, because he had today off and he would do it for me. I thought "Sweet!" and pretty much spent the day playing with August and not really worrying about any house work. We played outside, went for a walk/run with our dog, and it was great. Maximus (dog) had had fleas for like 2 weeks but the past two days I hadn't found any on him so I thought we had finally rid him of them. It was a really great day. I was super happy, August was super happy and angelic all day, and I thought today was going to be even better than yesterday cause DH had off.

Then. Late last night DH's work called asking him to come in at 7. So. He's gone at work now. I'm left with a trashed house and a buttload of laundry to fold (my least favorite thing). August is super cranky today. I had an allergic reaction to the grass here in NC (we just moved here in December) so my legs are all covered in hives and itchy. I got sunburnt (because sunscreen might as well be baby oil for me apparently)....And the cherry on top? As I was sitting on our porch drinking coffee trying to amp myself up to get a better attitude for the day, I saw fleas on max.

I seriously dislike this day. 

If it wasn't for the fleas, I think I would be fine. But the fleas are driving me insane. They're the final straw.

 

Anyways. Feel free to also vent and whine and throw a pity party for yourself here. 

 

p.s. I swear normally i'm not this petty, I promise. I know none of it is really that big of a deal, separately or combined. I'm just a whiner today.

The only thing that works for fleas down here (I'm in SC) is Comfortis.  Or Trifexis.

Girl, whine away. I'd whine! That sounds crappy!

Fleas are gross and horrible, but under a microscope they have little walrus mustaches. Try to picture the tiny cute mustaches as you gleefully murder them all!

I second the recommendation for Comfortis. It's the only thing that works for Winston; Texas has monster fleas and he's just so darn hairy.
