Kathy....when it this big get together? I may need a replacement for Orion but I am so scatterbrained right now I cannot think. Fighting this URI and appraisal on Monday morning blech.
Oh and house guests were giving marching orders by DH this afternoon while I was in town with Cheyenne. Oldest one will be gone in 2 weeks, younger one in 4 weeks. I am not sure what set DH off, I have an idea it was a combination of things because as I was leaving, I saw his jaw twitch and clench and the vein in the side his forehead throb. What happened I believe began last night. As you know I have been sick all week with the URI and have spent my nights trying to sleep in my recliner. When I could not sleep, I would get up and try to do something on my "appraisal list" of things to do. Last night I pulled the refrigerator out away from the wall and cleaned behind it, cleaned the walls in the kitchen and scrubbed counter tops and so forth, then steam mopped my floors and then ncleaned the half bath on the main level. I awoke this morning to raised whispered voices...DH and one house guests were having words...over coffee and sugar being spilled on the counter. So I was thinking "whatever, I will clean it when I get up" So I went upstairs and showered and came back downstairs and hubby and other house guests are having words, so I put on my boots and drug myself down to see the Diva Do. I came back and everyone had dispersed but the sink was full of dirty dishes and bowls and such, so I washed them up. Hubby came in and asked who did the dishes and I said "I did", his jaw clenched and he said OK and off he went outside. So a few hours later I am dragging my big ole steam cleaner down the stairs to do the carpet in the basement that the guys trashed when there was a leak and they were walking on the wet carpet with their boots on. I have been trying to get the carpet in that hall cleaned for a couple of months, well I stumbled down the last two stairs being an idiot and DH was in laundry room and he came running and said "What the hell are you doing?" I said "I lost my footing no biggie I am going to clean this carpet", he asked where house guest Number 1 was and I replied "Upstairs watching a movie" his jaw twitched and he asked where house guests number 2 was and I replied "upstairs with the other one watching a movie" and the vein in DHs forehead started bulging and he snarled at me...."Go get Cheyenne, go to town and get the curtains and rugs you wanted for the kitchen and go now". So I left with daughter. I came home to the aftermath and the final shouts from my husband and I heard only enough to make out one thing...."his wife was not a slave to him and hell would freeze before she would be a slave to two grown men one of which who is too lazy to lift a finger around this place and the other too weak to set the other one straight and he had finally had enough of it". Soooooooo, when the dust settled Cheyenne and I came inside.
Needless to say it is still going to busy around here tomorrow in prep for Monday morning but I think I will have less resistence to work around. LOL
