About Me

I'm a happily married mom of 3! I recently rejoined the work force after 8 years of being a SAHM. Now I'm REALLY trying to figure it out. Finding my balance w/ my family, my job, housework, school stuff, extra stuff, and maintain some sort of social life.. Nearly impossible.

The strep throat has cleared up, or at least he's feeling better. He was feeling better by Friday afternoon. Our weekend wasn't very exciting. Poker on Friday night. Which was fun, but I think I'm sick of it. I've had enough. We've been having poker games every friday for almost a year now. Hubs works all week long, and when he gets home on Friday, he's busy getting ready for the game, setting up the garage and what not. Hubs is usually up late, playing side games, cleaning up, waiting for everyone to leave. So on Saturday mornings, he sleeps in. Saturday is really the only day of the week where we don't have to do anything. The day where we can spend family time together, or get things done around the house. We have some 1/2 projects they need to be finished, and few more waiting to start. But now his saturdays, are spent sleeping in, and by the time he's up and ready to go, more than 1/2 the day is gone. Its getting to be too much work to have them. Too much for him, and too much for me. I don't have as much to do w/ the game, but thats more time I spend taking care of kids w/o his help. As this last game was the last straw for me. There has been a disturbing trend recently. Play cards all flippn' night. 3 times now, I've gotten up in the morning, and they are still playing in the garage! THEN my hubs has to sleep forever, and the whole day is gone. This weekend, hubs came to bed, and left guys out in the garage. He left our good buddy in charge, so that was alright, but damn. I got up at 8, and there they were. They didn't leave until 930am. I just can't have that. This is my home, not a casino. Yes, they play in the garage, but still. It bothers me, and its been bothering me for awhile, the constant friday night games, and now, i've just kind of had it. We have about 30 people a week that come to play. I don't want them here anymore. I know there is one on this Friday, but I HOPE that's it. And I'm not going to play anymore, at least not at my house. My hubs will never think I'm serious if I keep playing. Other than that.. Not a lot happened. The baby got a stomach bug yesterday, but it didn't last long. She threw up twice before noon, and that was it. She was back to normal, and eating just fine by 5. If we have to get the flu, I prefer it like that! I'm waiting to see who's next in line... And, not that anyone cares, but I had some absolutely FANTASTIC sex this weekend. So there. :) Have a good day!

if hubby doesnt want to stop card night...how about once a month? IMO i think there should be a cut off time for the games also...like the drinks being served at the bars...2am. just my opinion. i think i would get tired of that too if it was every weekend.

but after all that...its nice to hear you had some FANTASTIC sex this weekend! wohoo girlie!

big hugs to you

sounds like hubby has his priorities in order, a little cards, a trip to the bedroom to keep the wifey happy and then sleep all day long.....
if i was getting any, I might not be so glum (sex or sleep, you can choose)

cali- that's a good idea, and i brought that up today. He's only going to have them every other weekend for a while, and if that's still too much, he's going to go down to once a month :) wooohooooo, can't wait for that!

avery's mom- i heard on the radio today that today is the most depressing day of the year. Hubs does good, this card thing is just a bit out of hand recently. And getting a little luvn' and some sleep def. helps my attitude!!! Why are you not getting any??
