Oh my god, I'm going to lose it. I'm in the living room hanging out while everyone else plays poker in the nearby dining room and one or two people are sniffling non stop. BLOW YOUR FUCKING NOSE!!!!!!!!!
I've waited all day for the energetic 6 little boys to go to bed, they are finally all sleeping and no one is screaming...... And now I have to hear this. For fucks sake...
My child keeps telling me that I can't kiss her, because her grandma kisses her. Um, no. I get to kiss you whenever I want. On a funny note, I almost told her that I can kiss her whenever I want, because I gave birth to her. That is not exactly that case...haha!

I'm pissed at the grocery store, because I went in with Zoe and saw that a toy she loves was $10 off, so after taking her and the groceries home, I went back to get it. Well, apparently they forgot to take the signs down and in itty bitty letter, like, fine print, it said it ended at 1pm, but I was at check out when I figured this out, and I didn't want to call Patsy from there. Patrick is now telling me that I should have asked to talk to a manager, because they should honor the sign, since it was misleading, but I just bought it for full price.

I'm sorry, I'm a sniffer today. But I'm only around DH. I can't keep blowing my nose, as it hurts so badly. Guys totally don't blow their noses. Drives me nuts too. Have some wine?
DH are always arguing about him not acknowledging all of the things I do around the house. I thank him every single time he does anything to help. He was gone at a football game all day today and I did a ridiculous amount of laundry. We were standing side by side, putting our laundry away and he still managed to not thank me for doing it. Just those two, simple words make the biggest difference to me. I need that affirmation. I am being quiet and irritable now, which I wish I wasn't doing, but I can't just pretend everything is fine. He does not take any sort of criticism well, so it's not even worth it to bring it up. I'm just irritated now.

Most stores would honor it so at least you know that for the future. Sorry you had to pay full price.
It's really not a big deal. I just wouldn't have made a special trip, if I could have picked it up at regular price on a regular grocery run.

I'm annoyed at my swollen feet.
I should be annoyed that my 2.5 yr old forced me to buy him $25 Patagonia mittens by tantruming when I told him to put them back. But he looks so cute in them that I don't care.
I wasted an hour and too much money at a different psychiatrist today. She told me to embrace my anxiety and be even more protective since my instincts are clearly telling me to safeguard my children. She said I should sleep in the same room with them to fix my sleep...
So, take two toddlers who sleep 12+ hours through the night in their own cribs and put them in a room with me, who's up half the night. Yeah.
@therealmc That is so frustrating! I get very little acknowledgement for anything. I can't sit down after bedtime until everything is picked up in the living room. He doesn't even see that stuff. I'm fighting a losing battle.

Oh my gosh, no!! I'd be pissed too, that's a frustrating waste of time I'm sorry!

I annoyed at my dog. He apparently thinks it is his job to prepare us for a newborn by waking us all night long. Again last night he started at about 1 am. He needed to go out. He needed fresh water. He needed to pace around our room. And he will cry or bark until we acknowledge him or let him out.
What the heck is wrong with these psychiatrists?? Do your own online research and just tell me what med you want. Just take your kids in your room and you'll be fine?
If I embraced my anxiety, id be in a straight jacket at the end of a week!
I'm so sorry betsyray. Are you going to look for someone else?
Yep. It's just really hard to find someone my insurance will cover whose office hours match with when I can get a sitter. My only sitter who can work daytime hours lives an hour away (which is tricky with the traffic in this area) and is in grad school.

My H is pissing me off. We are decorating and his candy cane advent calendar that he made in the 1st grade got a little wrinkled in the drawer when I was storing it. He was all pouty and huffing saying that it was ruined. Dude, it's felt and paper, put it under something heavy and it will straighten out. Jesus. He is so weird about stuff. SORRY I "RUINED" YOUR UGLY OLD ASS CANDY CANE ADVENT CALENDAR.
I'm annoyed that my MIL still thinks she knows my kids better than I do and wants to get them whatever they want. We were at Steak and Shake for dinner, and they have kids eat free all weekend, so even though Abby was asking for an adult meal, I told her she needed to get a kids' meal, because they're free and we have tons of food at home, if she was still hungry later.
My MIL kept saying, "She's always so hungry; I've never known her to not eat all her food, especially here." Whatever, she always leaves food behind. Abby was pouting, so my MIL came up with the idea to get the free kids' meal, but also get her an adult meal. "Because I know how hungry you always are."
Umm, no. Not happening. Instead, I told Abby I would swap some of my adult meal with her kids' meal, and she cheered up after that (I wasn't overly hungry anyway). When they came, I tore a bit of my/her bun to give some bread to Caleb, and apparently, she wanted an untorn one, so my MIL traded buns with her.
Well, now, Abby's bun has mustard, so MIL scraped it off. Abby ate a few bites, but then wouldn't touch it. MIL insists that it's because of the mustard "Because I've never known you to not eat all your food here; you made Grandma into a liar."
Never mind that she's tired, had just had a late snack and lately has gotten into the habit of eating only the food she likes, declaring herself full and then wanting to eat an hour later when there was more appetizing food around. Never mind that she's MY child, not yours and I know MY child better than you do!!
Okay, maybe I was a little more annoyed than I thought.

Omg, my Mom is your MIL.
Seriously, she would have done all of those things. She is always informing me of things my children do. What they like or don't like. How they're feeling.
She sees them like once a month, maybe. She doesn't know anything!
