    Default This week...

    has been a b*tch and a half. DH is overseas, so I'm on my own with the tots. I have a stinking cold, and 'Aunt Flo' is visiting (feel like I'm hemouragghing - one of the first periods I've had in over 2 years and it's EVIL). I have a big work deadline to meet, but as I have no childcare, and two very young kids, I'll have to stay up all night, and most likely still won't finish. I was so stressed yesterday that I managed to scrape my car against a wall in a parking structure... $900 to repair the paintwork! How damn stupid can I be?

    DS2 was super cranky today, I think he's coming down with something. The 'mean moms' at DS's school have been at their worst this week.

    DS1 wet the bed last night, for the first time in months... he got me up at 5am, and neither of us could get back to sleep.

    I just found our dream house, but we can't afford to buy it (or anything whatsoever in this area, where prices have gone up 25% since last July! In less than a year!! We'll have to stay in a rented condo forever, it seems )

    I'm so exhausted, stressed, and feel like an idiot for pranging my car, and for letting the school moms get to me. I want to give my kids a proper yard. I want DH to come home and let me sleep (wishful thinking! He'll be claiming jet lag for at least a week after he gets home ) I want someone else to do this work so that I can take some painkillers and go to bed.

    Rant over. Now, to start the all-night toiling...

    You poor thing! I hope you got a good night's rest and have already booked your spa day for after DH gets home!
