By Friday, my emotional tank is empty.
Triple S got a job offer.
He told me when he came home. After three or four hours of holding a fussy baby.
Now he is po'd at me because I didn't react 'happy enough'.
Sorry dude, you didn't come home early enough. I used up all my energy not screaming in frustration at your daughter.
So now I am getting the silent treatment.

Serenity Joy almost made it into this world alive, but almost doesn't count. Her little sister did make it.
When we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present -- love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure -- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth.

It is really rough somedays. I've been a SAHM for almost four years. I have no advice, I can only say--some days the silent treatment happens. Congratulations to Triple S. Maybe you can have a celebratory breakfast tomorrow?
I absolutely hear you. I've only been doing this a few months longer than you, and not nearly as long as Angie, but I can relate to all of this. Some days are just bloody hard. This is way harder than being at work, in my book, (but not as hard as the other crap in life we have to live with).
After a few months of being a SAHM/working part-time (less than 10 hours a weeks) I knew I had to return to work full-time work. A long weekend of caring for E. Alone, while my husband works or plays, I am worn out. And very frustrated.
I hope the job offer is great!!
He'll get over it... Some days you throw yourself into his arms, others you hold back so you don't throw a baby. I know that and I'm not a SAHM - but guys can't seem to get it.
I'm so happy for you guys! I hope it's a great deal! I want to know the details when you have more energy...
I hear you too. Hopefully he will understand soon and stop being childish with the silent treatment.
Congrats anyway. He got the offer, but are you guys taking it?
Glad to hear he got the job (even if he didn't tell you in the most ideal way...!).
being a SAHM is tough. :) I get mad at myself when I'm frustrated with my girls because of the circumstances happening before their arrival.. but then I remind myself that it's okay to be crazed sometimes..
Oh man...We went through the same thing, over and over on this end. It is so hard. Who would have thought having a living baby would be harder on your marriage then having one die. MAN oh MAN, and I get upset cause I say nothing else matters, we have her, everything else is senseless, but I guess they still need their wives undivided attention sometimes too. Sigh.
