wifezilla

Sorry for the delay in filling you all in on my fun and exciting life, I know how riveting it is. Mostly I haven’t written because either I’ve been too lazy or too tired. Work has been crazy busy and by the time I get home I’m so tired I start to drool. Apparently that’s not a turn off for Scott, or it could be that he doesn’t look past the boobs!

We attended Meghan’s spring concert tonight, where Meghan had a couple of parts and sang a solo and was the narrator. She’s truly amazing. She does not get that from me, I pretty much peak at mediocre and if I were to sing in front of a crowd the screeching may cause male cats to rush the stage thinking I’m in heat and every human within hearing distance to hold their ears in pain.

You know as annoying as kids can be a moment like the spring play tonight sure showcases why it is we have children. They are great spirit lifters, Meghan made me feel so proud tonight. I know I tell my kids that I had them strictly for slave labour but I have to be honest with you they make the worst slaves ever. They don’t always clean up after themselves, they talk back and they whine when they do their chores. Too bad I’m morally opposed to beating. Although that bodes well for my husband who thinks the kitchen is clean when most of the dishes are in the dishwasher. He seems so shocked when I point out the dirty counters, food on the floor and six dishes spread around, kind of like “How’d that get there?”

I sometimes wonder when we lose that natural confidence that kids have. I know I as an adult certainly don’t have it. Tonight after the play Megs comes up to me and asks “Were we awesome?” I said “Yes Baby, you were!” She smiles smugly and states without guilt “I know”. I wish I could do that, I’d be so conceited (because I’m perfect and all)!

Finnegan has begun speaking more words which is great since the kid is almost two! The only problem is we aren’t sure what language they’re in. Although NO is perfectly clear and often present in his speech.

In other exciting news we got a PVR today and Telus TV. It is a sure indication you need to get out more when getting cable in your bedroom thrills you.

Have I mentioned that I hate menstrual cramps? I got my period this morning and feel like my uterus is being pushed through my spleen. Now thanks to Logan every time I think about my period I think about the thing at the end of a sentence. Trust me when I tell you, you do not want me at the end of your sentence for the next few days, I am Cranky. Scott loves this time of the month, when my hormones take over and turn me into wifezilla, where even his breathing is annoying. He may survive another month! Like I always say, it’s a good thing he’s cute.

I should have known I was getting my period soon this weekend when I felt like a rampaging lunatic.  My family loved hanging around with me this weekend, let me tell you.  They were so happy about it they thoughtfully left me alone whenever possible.  Except Finnegan.  He'll learn.  Eventually.

More tomorrow, I promise.
