grumpy

I am grumpy. I am so grumpy. So! I thought i'd share because everyone loves grumpiness right? These are the things that are making me very grumpy:


  1. eliza keeping me up for four hours last night crying and wimpering that she was scared. After the first couple of hours and having her right beside me i stopped being sympathetic.

  2. grumpy kids today.

  3. my husband being the coach of baseball and patronizing me and the other women on the team.

  4. stinky chicken poo.

  5. stinky dogs with fleas and no money for Program or Advantage until next week.

  6. the 80 hour 7 day work week that shane is maintaining.

  7. facial hair - what's that about? it's age isn't it. stupid age.

  8. cooking - breakfast, lunch, dinner infinity - daunting.

  9. laundry - this is the rest of my life.

  10. a long to do list that i just cant get through.

  11. no more greys anatomy or survivor.

  12. stupid periods. eight years without was good.

  13. shane and i forgot our 11th wedding anniversary last saturday and i made the fatal error of telling him it didn't matter. I will never get my spa day.

Tell me what makes you grumpy. Really. I want to know.

Today it was sleeping in (not too bad in itself) and getting to work with 80 minutes to make up on missed breaks.
Stressing about not getting enough time to write about bugs.
Stressing about not getting enough time to play in the soil (gardening).
Nearly getting a migraine.
Impending period.
Doing yard work and fending off mosquitoes for another hour after T went to bed while J left to go play with the geeks.

Actually you hit the nail on the head there for quite a few of them. My hubby is gone a lot, all the housework, grumpy kids and the PMS thing just returned for me too. Not enought sleep is the biggie lately and that's where I'm headed now. Good night :) (hope you feel less grumpy tomorrow)

My wife has been grumpier than usual lately. Yesterday she found out she had hypothyroidism. She now gets a free pass until the medication take effect (6-8 weeks)

I'm with you on more than a couple you listed.

The one sure-fire thing that will make me grumpy: a very stupid person making my life difficult. (I meet a LOT of them, sad to say...)

Oh!
I posted some (kitchen related) yesterday...

Grumpy... panic attacks at 3am FOR NO REASON, not enough money for stuff wanted (but enough for stuff needed, so I can't really complain, right?) , underpants that aren't comfortable, stupid people, delayed gratification.. oh my, I could go on forever.

All of those things would make me grumpy too.

Right now what's making me grumpy is the fact that my children are rejecting their naps and are acting like they are on big fat rocks of CRACK.

You're making me grumpy just reading this -- I can relate to all of it (well, except the baseball and the stinky chicken poo). Last night I snapped at my husband because he asked me if I was going to do the laundry today (my day off from work). As if I ever have a day off when I DON'T spend it doing all the laundry! Sheesh.

Mondays make me grumpy; I'm really glad it's not a Monday.

Clogged-up ears make me grumpy, too. It's like I'm wearing half a pair of earmuffs.

Did you read my last two posts? What makes me grumpy - my beloved hubs....

It's a small miracle we are still married. His angel boy must be protecting him.

moe

dishes, laundry, whining, dishes, laundry, whining...

Oh and my husbands 80 hour 7 day work week that makes my week never end.

Coming home from work to a messy kitchen in which teenagers have been cooking. Waking up at 2 a.m. to the thumping and crashing of teenagers. OR waking up at 3 a.m. to discover that I don't know where my child is.

think what you have to look forward to as your facial hair grows ever thicker and darker!!!

A lot of the same issues as you. Kids being sick (another one is on meds today). Having my period come this week (of course!). My husband getting to piss off whenever he wants because he has to "work" and make money. Fucker. Bleh.

Facial hair! It used to be just in the mole on my face, so I had it removed frequently. Now it's on my freaking chin!?

LB

hear hear! I am sick of cooking! Can we just eat popcorn and yogurt, toast and frozen bluberries for ever? Laundry makes me scream! I have 5 baskets to fold and harass the darlings to put away, oh but except my DDs, her crappy IKEA dresser is broken and we haven't fixed it yet, what a mess.

I expect to start shaving before my 11 year old does!
I woke up with a bad bloody news and my sinuses are killing me!!
grumpy! off for more motrin

I'm rarely grumpy, but rather in a state of perpetual bitchiness. I'm actually only nice every 28 days. Today I'm bitchy. Here's why:

1. chores
2. books to read for class
3. paying for my books for class
4. paying for one of my classes (ok, the other 2 are free! I'll celebrate on that 28th day)
5. allergies
6. no sex for at least 5 days. that always really DOES make me grumpy.

I should stop. I'm going from bitchy to grumpy now.

yes and yes to eight and nine. Why doesn't someone invent a pill we can eat when we are hungry but don't feel like cooking? Also what makes me grumpy - my husband monitoring my food intake because I am breastfeeding still. you know, it's not like I am smoking crack or guzzling fifths of gin, for god's sake. not that i am not tempted.

also grump-making: my husband telling me I will be so hot when my stomach goes away.

apparently my husband makes me grumpy.

there are too many things I'm grumpy about right now... I'm sinking in grumpy!!!

~ dishes, forever, and being the only person who puts them in the washer.
~ clothing, forever, and being the only person who puts them in the washer.
~ my husband doing something monumentally stupid that i'm still trying to get over and having a hard time because he doesn't get it (trust takes time to fix)
~ dog pee on the dining room floor every single damn day when i get home, even after i washed it till it gleamed and even used the enzymatic cleaner twice.
~ husband being a jerk.
~ husband trying as hard as he can not to be a jerk and still not getting it right.
~ feeling mean things at husband and not wanting to anymore but can't stop yet.
~ punctuating ("periods") during the first week when i have nothing to do but have fun and don't feel like it now.
~ neglecting all the bloggies i love for weeks and now feeling guilty for disappearing...
