what bothers me more?

September 12, 2008

good question. 

since 4pm yesterday till now I have:

  • straightend the house before baysitter arrival- inlcuding sweeping of floors, put clean dishes away and replacing with dirty ones
  • gone to a parent teacher conference
  • played with  kids for a bit
  • hauled out fall/winter clothes and done (4) loads of laundry
  • cleaned the kitchen floor
  • put all the CSA goodies away
  • cleaned the dining table and floor
  • put the mr to bed
  • worked on work for 2 hours
  • slept wedged between the mr and squash
  • woke the mr up
  • fed the kiddos breakfast
  • made the kiddos lunches
  • helped get the kiddos dressed

since 4pm yesterday till he has:

  • picked up the csa box
  • picked up a kiddo and myself
  • played with the kiddos or watched them play
  • went to parent teacher conferences
  • made dinner
  • watched tv
  • fell asleep on couch
  • moved to bed, slept more
  • woke up late (thank you mrs?)
  • got dressed
  • made own lunch
  • helped get kiddos dressed
  • took kiddos to school

does it bother me more that he did “less” than i did, not really.  does it bother me more that he hasn’t said a word of gratitude or any sort of conversation to me since eating dinner last night, probably.  does it bother me that i am “missing” out on time with my kids now so i can spend more time on a camping trip with them all this weekend, no.  does it bother me that he is rolling his eyes at me for not spending time with the kids, hell yes.

    okay i’m adding to my own list…

    what bothers me more? the fact that i worked my ass off during the week, to the point of utter exhaustion and bording on sickness? or that i did all of it to spend a weekend with my family and have the mr tell me he’s going into work.
