Kicking my ass

Allergies are killing me! I live in an ancient farmhouse and I'm allergic to it. Ever since we got back from Boston my eyes have been swollen, itchy, watery. When I wake up they are crusted shut!! ewww is right! Thanks to freaking claritin going OTC insurance no longer covers my allergy meds. GRRR!!

My mom picked Livie up last night to give me a break. Jason is back to work and so I no longer have a second set of hands. Cindy's on vacation and she's such a lifesaver as is her dd Becca. Livie loves to play outside all day w/ Becca. It's funny how Levi has changed my relationship w/ my mom. Actually my end hasn't changed but my mom has changed. Before when I would ask if Livie could stay the night she would tell me that she had to vacuum or mow the yard and no way was she coming to get her I had to bring her in to town. Now my mom is more than happy to help out. I'm so glad. My MIL on the other hand it...it seems to put more distance between us. She never comes over, seldom calls. I know it's because she thinks she's being more of a help by staying out of the way or something.

I hate it that dh is back to work. I mean I know he needs to for his sanity and just because it's the right thing to do. But for me...it sucks. He works second which kills entire days. We (the kids and I) go to bed right after he gets home then he sleeps til he has to go back to work. So we never see him. I've tried talking to him in the past about his "schedule" but it doesn't change anything. He'll still stay up half the night then sleep til he leaves for work. Part of me gets so frustrated w/ it but the other part understands. So I generally just bite my tongue then blow up at some point in time. Ok this is annoying. When I hit return the freaking cursor doesn't start a new paragraph. Ugh it's acting like the tab key. Ok too annoyed to continue. Besides dh is getting ready for work.
