Even as I type this, I have constant nagging in my ear- my son is picking, picking, picking at me, telling me how he doesn't like his dinner and he doesn't like me for a Mommy. Wow- last week it's Grace telling me she sometimes thinks I'm a "butt" and now my son apparantly doesn't want me for a Mommy.
Excuse me while I go drop him off in his room to let him talk to himself about how he doesn't like me for a Mommy....
Okay- that's better. Now the yelling sound is only muffled coming from the upstairs- it's not a constant buzzing in my ear.
Oh- and why was he eating dinner at the counter while I'm on my laptop? Well, because we all (meaning, myself and the other kids- husband is away on business) finished dinner quite a while ago. He was removed and placed at the counter because he just couldn't resist saying the words "Poop" and "Butt" at the table.
Is there something in the air? What is going on today??? I can't seem to find a single, solitary moment of silence!!
.... OH! How appropriate. As I am tying this, yet another interruption. The doorbell. Apparantly, the 13 year old dance student who just rang my doorbell asking me to support her in dancing by buying some wrapping paper couldn't read the NO SOLICITING sign directly under my doorbell.
And yes, of course I bought some dumb wrapping paper that I didn't need....
So, anyway- here we are back at the counter. Oh, and here's my son. Back down from his room to finish eating his dinner. Except he's not. He's nagging me and asking me questions over and over again, "am I done? did I do good? Mom? Mommy? did I do good? Mommy??"
Seriously- I think my head is going to explode.
I am now locked in my husbands office. I can still hear him asking me if he "did good" from the other room.
Oh, my dear husband of mine- come back soon!
K- gotta go... more screams floating up from the basement (where I sent Ariana and Grace a few moments ago)...

Ahhh. Is your heart pounding? That's what mine ends up doing when I have screaming, whining, buzzing children in my ear.
It must be in the air. That darn low pressure current must have passed our air up to yours. Sorry.
Ugh, I so know what you're going through!! Mine have been like this for a week or so now, and yes my hubby was away on business last week too!
Sometimes I *wish* they were in 'normal' school again so I'd get that break, how bad is that?
HUGS!! I hope it clears out of your place soon.....the whatever is in the air that is.
Last week was that kind of week for us.
I decided to put some praise and worship music on FIRST thing in the morning...and keep it going constantly to drive it out! lol...
Seriously, it can get soooo hard some days! The uplifting music seemed to bring a better spirit/atmosphere into our home.
Hang in there!! =) We are going to make it, by the grace of God!!! =)
People ignore your "NO SOLICITING" sign too?
