I'm exhausted. I feel really run down like I need three solid days at home on my couch reading books. That would be some sort of dream come true! I know I just need to get through the next couple of days and I will have some down time next week. I was very worried about getting up at a decent time this morning because I still had my gloves in the dryer and I wanted to start my car for a while, with it being so cold. With that being said my boyfriend was trying to leave super early as well because he had an appointment in the city. I guess he didn't have a very good sleep because he woke up this morning all sorts of angry. I wasn't quite sure why at first but I guess because it was so windy out my dog had a hard time settling down and her pacing kept him up. It's pretty rare when my boyfriend gets angry, but he does have a temper, so when he is angry it's a little un-nerving. I just let him grump around and figured I'd talk to him later this afternoon.
I ended up getting to work on time with my gloves on and my car pre-warmed, so I was happy about that. The work day was odd....it was slow in the beginning and in the end, but ridiculously busy in the middle. I guess I didn't mind it that much and it was nice to get my problems done so I had a little breathing room when I was finished. After work I simply went right home and started to do some cleaning. The foyer really needed a good wipe down because of all the salt being tracked in so I spent a while doing that and I also cleaned the downstairs toilet and sink area. After that I took the trash and was finally ready to get in the shower.
I had done laundry yesterday so I folded it after my shower and paid some bills. By that time it was 7:30pm and I had left overs from last night for dinner. I sure do like an easy dinner! Although I had forgotten I had to unload the dishwasher after:(The biggest thing I wanted to get done tonight was to put the rest of the Christmas decorations away and get the boxes in the basement but after dinner that was the last thing I wanted to do. I ended up couching it for almost an hour and then getting the decorations put away. I can't believe how bare my living room looks now! I actually have some rearranging to do but I figure that can wait until tomorrow or later this week. After today's activities I must say that my hands look horrible:( I'm very upset by this too because I was doing so well. I knew it was going to be hard to keep them looking nice especially with all the house chores I did between yesterday and today. Ugh. I don't think this extreme cold is helping either though.
After dinner my boyfriend called and I did mention how grumpy he was this morning. He said that my dog was really driving him crazy. I simply told him that he would have to put her downstairs or himself downstairs if it happens again in the future. He agreed and semi-apologized for being in such a bad mood. He was really stressed about the meeting he had in the city this morning so I can hardly blame him. I was kind of in the "not wanting to talk mood" tonight on the phone. I went on my speech about how much work I always have to do and why I can't ever just do certain things that I actually want to do for a change. He told me that he helps me out whenever he can and I definitely agree, but sometimes I do feel like he spends a lot of time in my house still as a guest. It was odd because this last weekend I felt the opposite because he was taking it on himself to take care of things such as the garbage or asking me if I wanted help with the laundry. However, last night I felt like he reverted in the he's a guest in my house mode again.
I guess for the first time in this relationship I'm getting that scared feeling that I always get when my relationships start to get serious....the one where I think I'm going to turn into a nagging house wife. I feel if we really are serious about living together we are going to have to share the workload more. As it is I do most of the laundry and because I get out of work earlier I tend to do most of the food store runs. He had a good point of telling me that there are a lot of things I like to do my way and that's why he lets me. I can't argue with that, but at the same time, if he did something I really hate doing without asking me first I can't imagine I would be angry if it was done right! Alright, I hate turning this blog into a bitch about my boyfriend entry so that's it for now!
