    Default Just wanna cry....

    I FINALLY got a little cash...just $80 after I cleaned this guys house. I decided I was gonna go to the mall with the girls and get some new post prego clothes. SO EXCITED! Ahrie (3) put up a fight getting dressed. then she got mad because I told her i gotta do her hair in a minute. so she threw a fit and took off all her clothes again. took me an hour to get her ready...then the hair...dunno how many have mixed kids...but its not an easy task. finally got that done.
    Azaias next. got her ready, fed her,changed diaper,she went back to sleep. Great.
    My turn. put on my pants...jeans I couldnt fit a few weeks ago...got em on. BLOOD. thought i was done with that. gotta change,and got NOTHING to wear but sweats.damn.o well...ima get a new pair at the mall. ready to go.
    Ahries hungry. feed her. change shirt thats soaked in milk.
    FINALLY in the car...get halfway down the road.flat tire. my hard earned long anticipated shopping money is going to a new tire.
    Come home. House is a mess.Just gotta clean.3 yr. old whining in my ear. This is my life.
    And my husband doesnt understand why Im crying my heart out

    and thank you for re-inforcing why I don't want children. It's bad enough with animals ... they give me enough grief

    actually, I got a tire for free once.

    I needed a new one (but you don't usually get one new tire, you have to get at least two to keep the tread balanced) and they happened to have some barely used tires that they were going to throw out. They gave me one.

    I had a day like that today...only with one child. Took Makayla 4 clothing changes (where does she get this from) to get ready...rushing her to get out the door...pulled her hair up, but everytime I went to put the band in, she would "scratch" her head and pull most of the hair out. Left it down, put her in the car. She complained that the restraints were too tight...pulled over, double checked them...plenty of room. Then she complained that she wanted hot chocolate. I told her no, which started a big, crying, screaming fit. Just ignored her...fit subsided and then she wanted to hear this Josh Groban song over and over and over...I told her that she'd listened to her song, I was going to listen to something I wanted and we would take turns...another screaming fit...pouting in the backseat.

    All this for a 45 minute round-trip drive to the bank (traffic accident...someone else's).

    Then, we get home, she's sleeping...I put her on the papasan...she wakes up...tells me she's not tired (no shit, I sure am!!). I told her that she didn't need to sleep, but she needed to lay there quietly for a little while. Another crying fit. I really wanted to throw her in the corner...but don't because I'm so annoyed, angry, and tired, I don't want to do it too roughly...she falls asleep for 45 minutes while I grab a bite to eat. Wakes up like nothing ever happened and has been in a good mood since...

    But, still my nerves are fried. I'm glad I have a mommy's night out tonight...and I'm glad that Joe's home.

    Sorry you had such a rough day. It'll get better (when they get in bed).

    I'm curious... how is having a mixed child more difficult? Is it because of the hair? You made it sound like her tantrum was because of her race... but I think you meant her kinky hair... or something.

    Yeah, she was talking about the hair...and its not limited to mixed children. Makayla's hair is very curly and I cannot run a brush through it...its gotta be done in sections. But, yeah, doing a child's hair, who's got kinky, curly hair, while they're screaming and throwing a tantrum...is...well...nothing short of a challenge. It also makes you want to pull out the clippers and give a nice little crew cut. LOL

    wow---
    your hubby, xiomara, needs to read your post. How can he NOT understand why you're crying? Even if you WEREN'T preggers this would still be cause for a big adult hissy fit of screaming into your pillow in private.

    sorry babes!

    As far as kid's hair--
    huh. If you don't get out the clippers, sounds like you need to invest in pretty swim (or bathing) caps with the flowers or whatever so you can just tug that sucker on and go. Yes, your kid would look like she'd been through chemo, but it'd be stylish, somewhat easy, and a creative answer. Plus they can't easily take them off!!!

    I wish I had a mommy night out. Ive been cooped up and I cry all the time because I need adult convo away from kids. my husbanddont count cuz he pays more attentionto the tv than whats going on inthe house, or how im feeling. but HE gets his poker nights. ugh on top of things i had the flu and was still doing housework,cleaning another guys house for needed mney, lookin after kids,cooking,everything. next day hes sick and he calls off work for 3 days, and sits around on the couch. hes fine now, but still off work till friday.THEN hes gotthe nerve to complain that I dont work as hard as he does (hes an air traffic controller...inthe AC, nice comfy chairs, no kids,adult convo,and can take sick days and come home and relax!!) aaaahhhhh this adds to my frustration that he doesnt understand a MOMMYS WORK....FOR FREE! sorry off topic.
    Ahrie is due for a haircut this week. Cant wait!
    and like Venus said...if i gotta scream,. i scream. and "drop" pots and pans. and slam doors,and stomp around. lol all the while im being looked at like i got a problem. guess ill go walk around the block again. my "outing" of the day. lol

    Dont cry things could be worse. Today when I was on the train. A woman in four cars down from my car. She had pass out! When they stop the train the conductor went to her! Then four people walk up to me saying she was turning pale and she had pass out! So I decided to be noisy and see what was really going on! When I came to the car she was pass out in the chair. She was pale looking as if she was turning bule. She was a very young woman. I could not believe people just left her there! So i Yell for everyone to move out the way! Than I announce who I was and this old lady was being a real bitch about things. SO I got her down to the ground to perform CPR on her! Her pulse was fading. But I kept trying! She died with me five minutes later! I still kep going in hopes of bringing her back! The ambulance came, They took my info and I told them how nobody bother to help the poor woman. How they gave me a hard time to clear out the way! I have never lost a person performing cpr on them! I do not know if they brought her back! But I was just really really sad all day. Poor girl I felt so bad only if I would have been noisy enought sooner!

    MY point is you are alive and your two beautiful children. That is a blessing in itself! We all have bad days, but at least you have each other! Everybody is healthy and alive!

    ^ Wow Leilanicandy...that must have been quite an experience. That made me sad just reading that. At least you tried to the best of your ability. That was a REALLY good thing that you did, by stepping in and giving CPR. I agree that most of those passengers were probably just ignorant/self-centered. On the other hand, maybe the reason no one stepped forward was because they weren't certified for CPR? I heard somewhere that if someone not certified in CPR tries to revive someone, they could have be sued. Just a thought.

    Back to the issue with Xiomara...maybe her HUSBAND should be the one that's truly grateful for his child and stepchild(?) and wife doing all the housework. HE doesn't sound like he's very grateful, by watching TV and blowing off the housework. And yes it is true, that no one truly appreciates life's good things enough...or at least they don't appreciate the good things in life until those good things aren't around anymore...this could apply to Xiomara as well as to almost anybody. But I think Xiomara shows more appreciation than her husband. Wasn't she dancing late into her pregnancy to pay for baby expenses? And didn't she choose to keep this beautiful gift of a baby as opposed to opting for adoption? It seems that Xiomara is doing a lot, and she is generally grateful/appreciative of her kids...I think the husband is the one who needs a lesson. And Leilanicandy's sobering post might be the words of wisdom necessary for her husband to read. Just an idea.

    Holy shiiiiiiiiitttt leilani!

    Whenever I was screaming and my mom was trying to brush my hair, she just threatened to cut it off if I didn't hold still and be quiet. It always worked. Heh, tough love... There were four of us.

    I don't know how single mom's do it... To deal with all that and have to do the dad's share, too? I don't think I could be a working mother until the kid is like... 6 or something, lol.

    It was a very bad experience. This was the first person I lost. People keep telling me you are in the city. people in the city is like that, the woman was so young.
    Dont worry Xiomara it will get better, it's hard sometimes but life is not always peaches and cream. Anybody that tells you differant is hiding something!

    ^^ i feel like a single mom!! lol I took the girls with me when I went to check on my dancer license renewal. LOL walkin in there with two young kids... I thought of that shirt "i support single moms"
    anyways...back on topic..... He's been helping a little bit but its still frustrating. I feel like Im always doing something wrong with Ahrie. I feel like a bad mommy because I dont know when or when NOT to discipline her,then I feel bad if I do,so I give in.. then i yell at my husband for disciplining her, but i do the same thing. Im so confused. I think it WOULD be easier to be a single mom when it comes to that, for some reason. i dunno how to explain.
    about the hair... my mama would always yank us back by the hair if we tried to get up and yell. LOL
