Not as excited this morning
I was pretty up yesterday. Headed for work today and the clients coming back. I have two of my long timers coming in and excited to see them. I was kind of bouncing ready for today.
Then as usual didn't sleep well. Husband snoring again last night. Woke up twice to the freight train. Flapped the blankets to wake him up so he'd roll over. No idea what to do. His snoring has gotten so bad in the last year. Know he has no control over it, but I am not getting sleep and it is his fault. So yes angry at him.
My mom as usual brought me down today too. My therapist told me it wasn't necessary to stay in touch with her after our fight if I didn't want to. I wish I'd listened. Winter has come and we both have snow now. I know I have 6 months of listening to her whine and complain about the snow and cold and just hate it. She lives in flipping Montana of all places. It is cold and there is snow. If you hate it for petes sake move to Arizona or Florida, but no whine, whine, whine. Drives me crazy.
This morning I mentioned our pretty snow that came yesterday. We have great snow. It comes and looks fluffy and white, they plow the roads, the roads and sidewalks clear off and the pretty stuff stays on the grass. We have awesome winters, not too cold, and I like snow. Well guess I shouldn't tell her that. Her email this morning started with...Glad you love the snow. I don't. Really hate the ice. My shoulder and knee are feeling a bit better today.....(She fell on the ice last week).
Sure wish she would move. 6 months of listening to her discontent is just not my cup of tea. Of course she is too hot for 2 months in the summer too, but at least I don't have to hear about that for as long. I got petty this morning and emailed her back saying Montana is not the place to live if she hates snow and she should move. I hate it when I snot back at her, but sometimes it makes her stop whining to me for a week or so. It just doesn't make me feel like a nice person, but she emails me at 7:30am every day and so my day starts all winter with how miserable she is because of the weather.
I wish I had the self preservation to cut ties with her at least for a while and give myself a break, but I feel like I have to be the dutiful daughter (wife, mother, friend) and always give give give even when it isn't good for me.

I know the feeling. My mother only wants to complain when she is around me. She isn\'t good for me to be around but I still hope that someday she will treat me like she tells the neighbors. I hear from the neighbors how great I am but never from my mother. Guess that is the way some are and will always be.
As for the snoring, go sleep on the couch. Nowhere does it say that you must sleep with your spouse every night. We sleep in separate rooms here since I can\'t sleep without noise and snore and hubby needs quiet and dark
