Overcast, cool and grumpy moods.

Why is it the weather plays such an integral part of our moods, of how our day begins. This morning was no different. Love my kids, but man this morning was frustrating for me, even more so with a sore foot and not able to do what I need to do without being in pain or it taking more time.

Since hurting my foot, household duties have suffered, laundry especially, which was behind the previous weekend to begin with – hey we have a great back yard and this past weekend we used it with friends and family ALL weekend… until Sunday that is when we celebrated my uncles Easter – and I am SO glad we did take the drive to TO 😉

Hubs is great, but … even I hate reading something and then “but”, I like handling MY part of the household duties a certain way, I do not handle things well when I cannot be independent and have to rely on someone else. I do not want to feel like a nag or like Im being bossy… perfectionist side of the Virgo thats for sure. I must remind myself to step back. Step back and let him be the dad and husband he is and until I am better let him do it HIS way. Eeeek can I do that. Its tough. Its so tough. Lord knows Ive been through it so many times with my own health issues. Im not happy at all about this darn foot, especially when we dont know how long its going to take to heal.

Doing laundry isn’t a favourite thing of mine when it comes to folding… I also do not have a “nice” laundry room – its a room everything gets thrown into , thankful its a room yes, but now that we are in this great house I want it to “look” like a room and be pleasant to be in. Pinterest is my friend to find these laundry room examples. Where did the topic of laundry come up – when our daughter claimed she could NOT find ANYTHING to wear and it was THE.END.OF.THE.WORLD. Yes… at 5 its happening already!

My kids hate when I capture their grumpy moods, hehe thankfully though it can take part of the grumpiness away when they realize they can SEE how grumpy they are… helps turn my mood around too lol! The frown quickly turns upside down 🙂
