Wow! I'm pretty sure a day like that would be more than I could handle!

You did very well today...I would have just gone into the bedroom and shut the door. My BFF has 4 boys, 3 still at home and when her hubby goes out of town, these things happen to her. I've been over to help her and I'm just barking orders!! :) A big smiley face for you!

I feel your pain. Hang in there! I did laugh about your husband putting a hex on the house when he leaves. I think they all do that.

My son turned 3 at the end of July. 2 was a dream, not one sign of the terrible 2s. The day after his birthday the terrible 3s kicked in with a vengence. He is just so active and mischievious that he wears me out at the end of every single day! I went to a girls' weekend and I couldn't wait for him to spring some of his devilishness on his Dad. It is really going to give Daddy a taste of what I go through every single day. This was going to be good, I thought.

Oh no! He was a perfect angel for his Dad. I came home and my husband asks, "What's the big deal? He was great and so much fun to be around. I wish I could be home with him every day. You're very lucky!" So yeah. Somehow, the men, they always get the easy road.

Tomorrow will be a better day. I hope your kidlet feels better soon.

These kind of days just happen. It sure would be nice if we had a warning it was coming. Hope you have a much better day tomorrow.

On a positive note, you found the water now instead of 2-3 days from now. It is a pain, but it makes the quiet times all the more precious.

Prayers are with you!

sorry for your mess. Hope tomorrow looks brighter for you. My DH is in a sh---mood tonight. I was on the other of the county when he called and asked if I was close to home and I said no. Hundred miles away. Cows out in the neighbors flax field. Oh well, I told him to get rid of some so he didn't have so much to do. but what the hay-- what do I know? He wants to kill himself with the cows, maybe I should add another 100000 to his life insurance policy so I don't have to work so hard.
