Is this a day to remember? Not really. It sucked. It started out good, in fact I was happy looking forward to it exciting things happening. Going to get a lot accomplished. What actually happened? Not to be a downer but...
So I was planning on a lunch date with Cheryl and Amy, and a workout with Emma. Otherwise just cleaning a bit and trying to be nice and get laundry done so my mom does not have to worry about it when she is home. Otherwise have a relaxing day, read a little bit, do something that makes me happy.
What actually happened?
I worked my butt off cleaning the kitchen, cleaning the refrigerator. Now I am exhausted and what do I have to show for it? A thank you ish and a dirty kitchen again. My brothers are so irritating. So is Amy. Why can't they just pick their stuff up? Do their part to keep the house clean? Amy to keep the house and our room clean. Yes, jobs suck but guess what? The sooner you get them done the sooner the house is clean, Becca is less stressed and then everyone feels happier and people feel less yelled at. Does anyone else notice when they make little messes and then can just clean it up? Does it take that much time to pick up crumbs? To clean up a spill? My brothers are incompetent at doing jobs right even if they try to do it. Half the time I just have to do it over again.
Oh did I mention the mountain of laundry I did in addition to my own? I folded my parents laundry and mine. My brothers did their's but even that was fought about between my brothers. Doing things is always a fight with them, and stop being the parent and blah, blah, blah.
I did get to read for a little bit but I worried about what had to be done so I couldn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. Also Emma ended up having a crisis because Fritz is dying of cancer... I was really bummed out that I didn't just work out earlier in the day like I had planned, it would have been some great stress relief. I understand her need to do something else and we did end up getting our eyebrows waxed. I did enjoy it and it brought temporary happiness. Temporary being the word. I just got back home, the kitchen was a mess, dinner was everywhere and Amy had cooked noodles even though she hadn't needed to. She was just sitting on the couch refusing to eat what someone had so kindly brought over.
So good?

got some reading in
All in all yes there were good parts... but it was more stress and bad parts than good. It is just hard to see those good things with all the stress and frustration I feel right now. Anyways I should go to bed. Another post tomorrow if I am good and consistent. Hopefully this will have helped and I won't sit up thinking about everything. I need to work out tomorrow and make sure to do something for me. Ending of this post as I said.. today sucked.
