I believe I will whine a little about things that are bugging me.

1) Yesterday I wore ankle boots with 2.5 inch heels with jeans and felt lean and leggy but they whacked on the (now green) bruise up the front of my right shin and now it hurts like mad. My little finger needs amputation too, how something so small can continually ache is beyond me.

2) My daughters are upstairs bickering like two little witches about who’s fatter and who’s lazier and who is pulling whose hair — all over putting away a HALF BASKET of laundry that I washed, dried and folded for them. Ingrates.

3) This constant headache is now on day six now. Go the hell away.

4) The lawn needs raking and mowing and there will be whimpering galore about helping with it. I am tired of being accused of being a slavedriver.

5) I can already predict that about six o’clock C is going to start sniveling about having so much homework, despite my reminders yesterday and this morning. I’m in a “tough shit, teenage boy” cynical mood about this.

6) The retarded time change has us all confused.

7) The girls started really fighting. R kicked A in the elbow and A scratched R. A is now calling her father to tattle since I am singularly unimpressed with her woes.

8) Oh, I’m also told it’s very boring around here and there’s nothing to do (despite the fact that I have been doing “nothings” all day.)

Argh. They can wash their own dishes and do their own laundry and make their own stinky mac ‘n’ cheese. I hope things improve around here this afternoon or I will be running away soon.

UPDATE

Sixteen jumbo-sized bags of leaves later, everyone feels like we accomplished something…

My headache is better, I had a nap, we had a nice dinner, everyone is bathed (but me, that’ll be my treat later), homework is progressing and life is much improved. Thank heavens, I do not like being in a whiny mood.
