I'm gonna have to check out the container. THat's awesome.
We got $300 on those loads. There's more. Gotta work a little harder for the next loads tho (which is a good thing - easy child 1 has hauled off scrap off and on all year). I split the money with the kids.
I did not ask for help loading the trailer. I did ask for help getting *insert list of tasks to finish that day, including deadline time, if applicable* done, which is what really made me angry about the situation. He KNEW I was on a tight time schedule, and he knew I wass multi-tasking, and had the gonads to be mad at me for stopping when he bothered to show up, and get mad at me for tending to another one of the things I had to get done.
We've had a couple of discussions the last couple days about it. One of his complaints was feeling left out of conversations and plans, in particular, difficult child 1's party that he "did not know about". And I know the more frustrated I get with him, the less I make a point to tell him. However, I KNOW I told him I was getting the Sam's card to get meat for the party, and easy child 1 and I asked him how much meat he thought we ought to get, and we have had conversations about the party in the same room as he is for 3 weeks...but guess what was on....a **** screen. And he admits he probably doesn't listen when the tv or computer is on, and also that if he's in the house, he's in front of one or the other. So WTH do I do? I've alked to him about Wee when he's playing online checkers and he gets ticked cause I interrupt him. If the tv is on, he's either ticked that I'm talking, I have to speak only during commercial break (when he also flips channels, so there's rarely a commercial break), or he doesn't remember anything I said, anyway. So I guess I've just quit.
And the only two topics that have been touched on so far are the house and his comments at the party Saturday night that cgfg is the "only kid around here that'll listen to (him) and she knows if she doesn't listen, (he'll) beat her butt, and when (he) talks she listens". Really, husband? So that's why you sent her to bed at 11:30 and I caught her playing wii at 2? Yeah. She listens. And at this point, I see it as just another example of what you think of me and mine vs what you think of you and yours.
And this morning, he's mad at me cause I'm still not giving in (and *thats* what he's mad about). He "gets that I am frustrated, but he's trying". I will spare you the actions that followed, but trust me, he's mad and I know it, and it took PA to a whole new level in my house.
