OH MY GOD.....THIS IS MY LIFE!!!!!!...Hi Danielle!!! OH MY GOD.....THIS IS MY LIFE!!!!!! I read your blog to my husband aloud, just so he can see I am not a lunatic as he'd like to think. You totally hit a nerve within me! I must tell you that as much as I look forward to the warm weather, sunny days, and the sun going down late in to the evening, these changes unfortunately signal the arrival of GOLF season. I have complained about the same stuff time and time again to my husband, who is telling me not to get sore knuckles as I type. Why can't men understand that us complaining about them taking off and leaving us with all the unpleasantness doesn't mean that we want to escape our homes and children and them ourselves. It just means that we want a little q.T and a friend, and companionship, and a partnership. Just putting a little wishfulness out there for all moms like us!<BR/><BR/>ps- Bless my cleaning lady...otherwise I'd be arguing over cleaning the house!

I lost count how many times I have called him a self centered ass this week. He is constantly commenting on how he is tired because he has a job. Like what I am doing all day isn't. It really makes me resent him. <BR/>It is obviously a man thing from the other comments. You are definitly not alone on this one!Sherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00531803587113009396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411191833261267894.post-17388217899028037622008-05-28T17:01:00.000-04:002008-05-28T17:01:00.000-04:00Oh yeah I forgot to add that I'm a landscaping wid...Oh yeah I forgot to add that I'm a landscaping widow this weekend if you are up for hanging out.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07292516469605543381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411191833261267894.post-39018981515235112652008-05-28T16:53:00.000-04:002008-05-28T16:53:00.000-04:00Ahhhhh golf, fishing, snowboarding, hunting.

Justin does have the tendency to do the same thing but I have to admit he has gotten much better since Madison has gotten older. I think he feels like she is easier or more fun to interact and do stuff with now. Hope the same thing works for you.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07292516469605543381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411191833261267894.post-91258081908973172562008-05-28T16:09:00.000-04:002008-05-28T16:09:00.000-04:00I would be upset too!! you have every right to be ...I would be upset too!! <BR/>you have every right to be angry...

We've learned to compromise because I also realize that he needs that time away too (my hubby mountain bikes so it isn't as long of a day). I would talk to him about maybe doing 9 holes every other week or something on that idea so it's not like you never get to go, but you need to limit how much you do goLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12688642209556861948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411191833261267894.post-25699046109813704772008-05-28T10:42:00.000-04:002008-05-28T10:42:00.000-04:00I'm with you on this one.

He keeps telling me this is how it is and I should be glad he helps as much as he does.....oh yes- one diaper in a thousand, that is SO helpful! I'm glad you let yourself rant. It is healthy and so much cheaper then therapy ;)Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07156212038739784644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411191833261267894.post-90002013827965399142008-05-28T10:28:00.000-04:002008-05-28T10:28:00.000-04:00Bless your heart!
