A whiny weekend for all...

This weekend, overall, was whiny and somewhat miserable for us all.

Friday night i had my football game. It was the district finals. This is the third year in a row that we've been there, fighting for 1st place and a state playoff birth. This is the third year in a row we've come up short and been eliminated from the state playoffs with a second place finish. It was a hard fight, we just didn't have it in the end.

Saturday, we went to pick up the boat from the winterization place. We decided, since we were going out that way, to call Frank's dad and step mom and go out for lunch with them. We went to Quaker Steak and Lube, and Mady was really good. Then we stopped at Lowe's, and Frank started to feel "off". By the time we got the boat dropped off and we got home, Frank wasn't feeling well at all. We got changed and went to my Aunt's for game night, and Frank was feeling miserable. He had a sore throat and a slight fever. He felt good after a few beers, but by 10pm he was asleep on the couch with Mady.

Sunday, Frank didn't feel any better, so he stayed home from church. I tried to keep Madylinn away from him as much as i could, just in case he was contagious. That meant i had to do EVERYTHING, and all with a baby. I made Frank breakfast, got dressed, started the laundry, went to church, did some more laundry, went grocery shopping, made lunch, finished the laundry, made dinner, did the dishes, made his lunch for monday, remade the bed with new sheets, gave the baby a bath, got a shower and watched a bit of football...all with the baby. And that was a challenge, believe me. When i was going for groceries, Frank told me not to come home with my food because he would be hungry for it and couldn't eat it...i didn't think it would be a big deal. Well, i got to WalMart and was going to eat subway, but it was super crowded, so i decided to get the groceries first and eat afterwards. Well, as i was shopping, i came to realize that Mady wasn't happy when we stopped moving. So everytime we stopped (especially in the check out line), she would scream. Needless to say, i paid for the groceries and left so she would stop crying. I drove to Burger King to get something to eat, and i had to drive around until i was done eating because i couldn't take the food home because of Frank, and i couldn't sit and eat it anywhere because Mady would cry. Thank god by the end of the night, Mady was ready for bed, because i was exhausted enough for the both of us.

throughout your whole blog, you make your husband sound like a real loser. disinterested, miserable, selfish. it must be exhausting taking care of two babies. instead of driving around in your car eating your food, tell him to shut his eyes or better yet, he can go in a different room. i don't how women deal with this kind of lazy, self-centered man.
