Can you hear this?

SSSSSSSSSSCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Today's been plain awful!!!!! Dae Lynn's started moving some things in so the kids know that they're going to be living here soon. Karlie had books to put away so I was interrupted about 15 times with her wanting me to see each book........I was trying to get my living room in order since it's been a wreck for a week. Everything I've tried to do has been interrupted by fighting, screaming, or just one thing after another. I'm really wondering if I can do this!!!!

For one.....it's been a long day. Usually Dae Lynn is here by three o'clock and it's after six now. I know that I'll be fine as soon as I get some time to myself. I just needed to vent.......and I even did that in the wrong section!!!! Sorry!!!

[Janet]

You vent when and where you want!! I do have you in my prayers Diana...that this transition phase will be over soon and a normal daily pattern will help out. I know how having someone, even someone that you love...is difficult...ill or not.

[gja1000]

Oh Diana, I feel your pain! It will be a big change, but you will get used to it over time.

[judy]

Hang in there Diana! Develop a bad stomach so that you can run into the bathroom when you need to be alone!

I feel for you!!!

[JJJ]

I felt bad when I didn't let my sis move in with me. But her boys are a little too much for me and she get's really angry when I tell them something. She told me NOT to address them but she won't deal with it either. :mad:

Good luck and some rules around the house might be good.

[Gina]

Diana I am just getting the gist of your venting, I have not been on here much but I am guessing that Dae Lynn and the kids are moving in with you..

All I can say is hang in there and get some ME time in there when you can.. Good luck and vent to us all you want , we are here for you.. hugs

[DianaB]

I know that things are going to get better but the moving in and having things such a mess is hard.......plus Dean's getting his molars and he's been really grouchy with all of his teeth!!! Believe me.......I'll get my ME time in when I need it!!! I have a BIG bathtub with a book beside it just waiting for me!!!

[Janet]

I am always so grouchy when my house is a mess...not even dirty...just needing things where they belong. It just drives me nuts sometimes.

I thought of something else too....when you need some exercise time....take Karly that way you have a walking companion and it will wear her out.... :)

I know once you all get in a daily routine everything will be so much better. I'm glad you know that already.

[DianaB]

Ok......things are better now for the most part!!! I went outside this morning and worked in the yard and missed some of Dean's tantrums!! I tell you.....he is a character!!! He gets so many swats it's not even funny!!! Dae Lynn was such a sweet little girl who never gave me much trouble.........but I think that he must get this from his Dad!!! LOL I can't imagine how bad the terrible two's are going to be!!!!

However.....this morning I woke up to a little blonde head looking at me while I was asleep!!! Too cute!! But then he started getting into things in the bedroom so the sweet moment was lost!!! Oh well.........

SSSSSSSSSSCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

.........

I just had to bring this one up again because that's how I'm feeling this morning!!! Dean's biting and pinching......Karlie's running and screaming......and I'm ready to head for the moon!!!! Damon has court this morning so we'll know soon when he can go to Teen Challenge. I've had the kids quite a bit because Dae Lynn is trying to get everything moved this week and I'm about to lose my mind!!!!!!!!

I think that as soon as I get this posted the kids are heading to their room with the tv on!!!!

Dean finds every little button and pushes it. He pulled the card out of the DirectV box and lost it the other day.......plus he pushes the tv spot and turns off the tv....it's not even a button...just a white spot!!! And he does that to the DirectV receiver as well. You'll be watching tv and he'll run in and shut it off or change the channel. The remotes and phones all have to be kept well above his climbing level!!! Nap time is coming up.......I think that I can make it until then!!!!!

[Janet]

You poor thing...how about you and I head to Iceland for a week or so?

[DianaB]

Sounds good to me......except I'm expected to keep watching kids. Bummer.........How about next week?

[Janet]

Okay....but I'm putting my foot down....no kids! :)

[DianaB]

Sounds good to me......NO KIDS!!!!

We're going to Lloyd's at Tablerock Lack next weekend.......Wanna' come?????

[judy]

Kids are really cute when they go home to their moms!!!

[DianaB]

Kids are really cute when they go home to their moms!!!

But not so much when they live with you!!!

Dean's been teething......he's just getting in the last of his molars so he's been a bear......or that's what we blame it on. He can be totally fine until Dae Lynn comes in then he whines and cries at her ALL the time!!! He turns into a different kid!!!! I think that some of it is that he's afraid that she's going to leave him again......but even when she does leave he doesn't fuss and cry like he does when she's here. She's almost completely moved in so maybe spending some time with him will help. He's got to be confused about everything that's going on.

[Janet]

Poor Dean....having trouble teething and then wondering what the heck is going on has to be just as difficult for him as for everyone else. I'm sure he doesn't like being upset and is not quite old enough to know how to pacify himself.

[DianaB]

Dean was better today because Dae Lynn was around. He was running a bit of a fever though.....not sure what that's about. Maybe he wasn't feeling well yesterday.

[judy]

Could be from teething. He sounds like a mini terrorist!!! They get that way at his age, and with all of the changes, it's probably much worse!

Hopefully, Dae Lynn will be around more so that he doesn't have to worry about his Mama!

[Janet]

I think most kids do feel better when they have their Mama near. The temp was probably from teething. Give the little guy some popsicles, that should help a little bit.

[DianaB]

Terorist fits Dean to a T!!!!! He's so fast and into everything!!! He seems to be feeling better at the moment.
