Still attempting to figure out all my frustrations. Not much headway. I talked with my husband last nite about our planned trip to Florida. I told him there was no way I was sitting in a car for over 17 hours with 3 kids without going totally insane, or pulling over and getting out to walk home. He thought maybe valium would help relax me. I'm not wanting to relax in a car for 17 hours. I'll do that in my own home, thank you very much. I made sure he understood that vacation wouldn't be a very happy or relaxing time considering the way I feel. I'm not sure he got it. I'm pretty sure he didn't.

I'm suggesting other options, where we don't have to drive a day to get there. So far, none of my suggestions are being accepted. He did suggest he could go to Florida by himself. Oh ya, leave an irritated, crabby 37 year old diabetic alone for a week with her 3 kids. I did mention inpatient mental institution in my response. So no decision has been agreed upon. Figures.

I did get to take a nap today for a couple of hours. It seemed to help. But I realize that I get very irritated with my 4 year old daughter. She's mini-me, that's probably one reason. Several other reasons include the fact she asks questions but never waits for the response, just starts asking the same question over and over. Then she repeats herself a hundred times with some demand, believing I move as fast as The Flash.

I hear my darling husband yelling at our 20 month old, so I'll move on for the moment before someone hurts themselves. Oh, no sex. Sorry.

Seriously, he's taking the kids, and you are staying home alone.
