Cut Me Some Slack

Posted on October 30, 2009 Written by Tonya

I don’t get it. As frustrating as babies can be, with their sometimes incessant whining and always needing something (attention) every other minute, it seems as though mothers would get a break when it comes to everything else.

For example, I struggled with the DVD player last night until I wanted to pull my hair out, I drove circles around a parking lot yesterday trying to find a place that wasn’t across the street, the toaster oven decided to, for whatever reason, quick toasting; the power cord for my lap top was just two inches shy of reaching the outlet and being able to sit on my lap while running on the back up battery, I felt like I needed to have a degree in curio shelf removal in order to get the damn thing off the wall and I didn’t know that Tucson was expecting a cold front and was going to be 40 degrees this morning, so on top of everything else, I’m freezing! It has been one thing after another and I have just about had it.

The trips out here are difficult and my nerves are always a bit more frayed than usual, so that may have a lot to do with my disposition. All in all, it was a successful week and I’m glad that we came. It’s time to go home now and resume our normal routine. Oh, and we are both ready to see your dad! 🙂

The best is yet to be.
