>.< HAPPY FRIDAY - HAPPY FRIDAY >.< HAPPY THOUGHTS - HAPPY THOUGHTS >.<
I am sooo freaking happy it's Friday, finally this week and almost this month is fucking over. Over and done and gone and please let this day pass quickly.
Construction isn't too bad so far this morning. yay
No snow today, just some lovely shiny black ice. Which is just soooo much more fun. NOT. I do love having 3.5 seasons though (it's not quite a full 4 anymore it seems). Florida had 2 seasons, Summer (aka HOT) and Hurricane. I do not miss Hurricane Season at all. AT ALL.
The husband and I talked last night, which was good. I am pretty sure we got most of it worked out before his mom called and talked his ear off again (it was the 2nd time that night). Let me tell you, being the Executor of your parent's Estate, can suck - it's stressful and no one is ever happy it seems. Money is not worth it. Possessions are not worth it (unless it's some hundreds of years old family heirloom or something super unique and special - then MAYBE). The poor husband has to deal with it all and it all sucks. He is very good at documenting everything and making sure everything is in order, but the family bickering is what really drowns the soul in misery. And his soul is drowing in such misery. There is not enough time in the day. There just isn't, not for all the things that need and want to be done. Something has to give. Part of what we were talking about last night was that. What can/needs to give and what can we do and maybe develope a schedule (which can be hard, because life just happens and there goes the schedule, so what's the point of the schedule anyways) but I want US time, I want hugs and kisses and wild passionate sex and making out on the couch and just cuddling watching tv and lots of affection and date night and I just want the fucking world. ~smiles evilly~ but I also want me time, to smoke and read, or just read. He needs me time too. And we have to schedule therapy sessions, gym for him (I don't do gyms due to allergies), the kid might have french horn lessons with his teacher, laundry needs to be done, time with the kid so he doesn't get ignored. Having things to do, like some hobby (maybe other than reading - though I'm not sure about that). All of things and life and work, it's just all takes too much damn time. Ugh.
So, we both ended up not finishing everything we wanted to/talk about and still going to bed late and still tired this morning. But damn it, I'm making blueberry pancakes tomorrow. And eggs. And bacon. BACON.
I did finish another book last night. Still have a few reviews to post later on. Also reading the Never King (which I am really liking so far) by George Tyson.
Otherwise, work is work. Trying to get at least 1 XML project done without drop kicking my laptop.
Plans for this weekend? Sex. Also, dying my hair. My whites are showing bad and yeah not the look I want at the moment. I use Henna Hut, the Red one specifically (the left link) but my hair is so dark it comes out more like the Deep Red (the right link).
I wash my hair, make the lovely paste - it looks like red mud- and also add in some essential oils because trust me, this stuff smells. Not as bad as normal hair dye by any means. But, I usually leave this in my hair for 1-1.5 hours. Rinse and rinse and rinse. Oh and you don't wash your hair for 2 days afterwards so it can set, but that's fine by me. The thing(s) I LOVE about henna dye is that it doesn't fade. At all forever it seems, I still have a lot of red in my hair. But I got my hair cut a couple months ago and it's always growing so I have a lot of white showing in the front. It's all natural, so no chemicals to rot my poor brain on a slow basis. Which is why I probably won't ever go blond again (I have been quite a few times in my life) because I would have to bleach my hair. It would KILL it. Oh and another thing I like about Henna, it helps seal up your dead ends. Yay. It makes my hair all shiny and pretty and I need to feel pretty right now.
Other than that, the normal - laundry, grocery shopping, cleaning. It's too damn cold to do most other things.
And now back to work - happy thoughts...and a beer when I get home.
I want to come to breakfast at your house.
ReplyDeleteMy grandma calls my dad and talks for hours. He and my Uncle Michael are the only one who will give her that much time. She's in what wuold look from my angle to be a very long and unhappy marriage, and they're in the upper echelons of LDS hierarchy, so she pretends to the world that all is well. I know enough about my grandfather to know all could never be well if one had to be married to him. Sometimes I think that even though she would probably drive us all crazy, she should pack her bags and live with us. We would at least be nice to her.
I'm almost to the point of needing to do something really different to my hair. I have this mousy dark blonde/ light brown hair that is curly if I do nothing, flyaway if i straighten it, and really blah.
Hmm...I find myself almost missing the two seasons in Minnesota...winter and construction. The heat and humidity in North Carolina just don't suit me at all. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of the cold and snow, either, but I much prefer putting more clothing ON to taking as much as I possibly can OFF.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you and your hubby had a good talk. :) My hubby and I have trouble with fitting in all the fun-fun-happy-time stuff, too. I don't know if it's because we can't make the time, or if we just aren't feeling it, though. I know I haven't been feeling all that desirable, and he's been getting run ragged at work. Between those things, the financial burdens...it all just adds up. By the end of the day? It's kind of like he just wants to be able to play some games, and I just want to read or watch something silly on TV. We don't even have a kid to add into the mix, and gods love them (I know we'd love to have one), but kids take time and attention (as they should). I'd think it was a relief to at least be able to say all that out loud, though?
Being executor... =/ I don't know. Hubby and I are my dad's executor should anything happen (gods forbid, as he's still alive and kicking), and my husband is his dad and step-mom's executor. I don't have any siblings, and Hubby's dad doesn't have any other kids, but I'm guessing it's still super complicated. :( When my great-great-aunt and great-grandma passed away (years ago, now) I remember there being a HUGE argument in the family. In fact, several groups STILL don't talk to one another. I don't envy you or your hubby's position. I don't look forward to being in it one day, either. :(
Mmm... blueberry pancakes AND bacon? Man, oh man... I know what I want this coming weekend... Er. Once I find out if Hubby will eat blueberries in his pancakes. Maybe I'll just sprinkle some into a few for Dad and I... Also, bacon.
I need to look up what XML is. O.o
I would so love to dye my hair. I really would. I think once I have a job again, I might go right on ahead, too. (I'm no where near talented enough to do my own. >.<) I haven't for years and years. And I always just dyed it black. Sooo boring, but I loved it back then. I don't think I would anymore. I would LOVE to go all red-headed, but that is the one thing ever, ever that Hubby has asked me not to do. For some reason he has a thing against red-heads. I might have to ask him if a few touches of strawberry blonde would be problematic...
