frustration

i don't even know how to explain my frustration right now.
yesterday felt like everything was going wrong....and it was...still is...so frustrating.

i know i can be a bit of a control freak. and sadly, yesterday i realized how little control i have over the entire situation.

everyone has started settling into their roles and we are getting used to everyone's quirks. dad even told me how happy he is to live with us and how much he enjoys being around the boys.

but my patience level with the boys is so much shorter...and i hate it!

i also hate the smell of urine! my dad is trying to be helpful. he empties his own cathedar bag, but sometimes misses the toilet. and then his cathedar came disconnected from the tube in the middle of the night...on a positive note...i was very glad tom insisted we purchase the mattress protector.

i so dislike running to the grocery store. jack whined the entire way and the lines were longer. at one point, i let him get out of the little car cart and climb on the bags of charcoal and paper towels.

and then when i got to work...i super glued my fingers together repairing a broken flower prop. ugh!

sorry for all of the rambling during this entry...just needed to vent a bit more. one of my hopes for this blog is to illustrate the real life challenges and joys from our days together.

today. will. be. better.
