Whine and Cheese

Recently I have been hit with so much craziness in my life (mostly through work related issues) that I have been sinking into an "I hate the world" frame of mind.  Because I don't really want to write about all negative things I haven't been writing at all. 

I miss writing.

So I have decided to allow myself to complain about five things that are really have been grinding my gears lately.  The rules are only one sentence per complaint and I have to come up with five things that make me happy to balance it all out at the end. 

OK, here we go it is time to vent!

1. Thanks to the economy we are doing more with less staff where I work and it is making me very stressed out a busy.

2.  Personally, my husband and I are having a little money crunch and no matter how much we cut back we are still not where we want to be...and it is stressing me out.

3.  My son screams like a banshee and clings to my leg when I drop him off at day care and it breaks my heart because I would much rather be with him all day.

4.  I am so drained at the end of the day that I have no energy left to clean my house or have me time.

5.  It really bothers me that when you pull the mascara wand out of the tube the glob of mascara on the end looks like an earwig pincher.

Looking on the bright side:

1.  I got two pairs of jeans at Gap this weekend and only paid $45 total thanks for my Groupon and a really great sale.  I love getting a deal, especially on something I really needed.

2.  I actually found a pair of skinny jeans (see above) that work on my big butt.  I never would have thought I would be able to wear a pair of skinny jeans! 

3.  My son went up to my husband yesterday and said "I love you!"  Melt!  It is my turn now Ian.

4.  After a lot of thought I have decided to open up an Esty shop in the near future to sell the molded crayons I have been having fun making lately.  I have more supplies on order, and I am ready to get producing and hopefully making a few pennies along the way.  Look for an announcement in the next month of my shop opening!

5.  My husband not only vacuumed yesterday but he also did the dishes.  How lucky can a girl get?

I feel better now!
