Crap. Another weekend.

This week was one for the books.
I am suffering from some horrendous cold and sinus problems. Every minute there is a new headache or coughing stint that knocks me off track and makes me miserable. I am not enjoying anything. I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I've worked and tried to keep up with normal duties but I'm spent.
At home I get worn down even more.
Bella is a Chatty-Cathy. She can't talk enough or play enough or have enough friggin' juice. She stays hopped up on white grape juice mostly just to keep the peace. If she doesn't get her way the entire house jiggles from the noise.
Tori is finding her voice too, and she demands our attention to tell us if her wants and needs aren't being met.
What do you do with 2 little kids in the middle of winter when you're sick and your husband and friends work at night?
Stay home.
To me staying home is sometimes a little like torture. It's home and all the convenieneces are there but since I am alone there is no real convenience at all. It's all on me.
The entertaining, cooking, decision making, and discipline are all on my shoulders.
Great.
Don't get me wrong I LOVE my girls, I just feel a little trapped this winter.
If I didn't get sick every other weekend I may not be in this crappy mood right now. I seriously think Bella brings home all these colds from Pre-School and they are driving me crazy and I can't take it much longer.
Bring on Spring!
