    Angry Stressed out, stressed out, stressed out!

    As many of you know, we have alot of work going on here. Well to be more presise...not going on here. The concrete pad in specific. It was supposed to be poured Tuesday. they showed up late. It wasn't framed till wednesday...just between two huge rain storms. It rained yesterday and it wasn't done...still not done today. I can't move anything around till the mulch can be moved. mulch can't be moved till the lawn furniture can be moved (IE, the table, chairs, grill etc). they can't be moved till the concrete pad is in place and dry. Also the front yard needs to be rototilled and raked then seeded. DH decided that this weekend he will go camping and take ds. Leaving me and dd to do this. I can tell ya right now, I can't do it with a 2 year old. So that leaves doing all this on Monday and tuesday if we want it done for my mom and grams visit.

    To top all this off, I have another sinus infection. I got put on antibiotics three days ago. It is slowly getting better, but it is hindered, I am sure by the stress.

    Ok, i have vented a little bit, i feel a little better

    Sorry things aren't working out like you want Miss.( I call my sister Missy this, hope you don't mind. If you do just let me know )

    I know it's not easy & you want everything to be perfect but mother nature & goofy men have made a change in plans for you.

    I guess I would focus now on the time you spend together in your home and the surrounding neighborhood & like Carolyn said , they are there to see you. Your yard is a work in progress that you & they will enjoy next trip around.

    While the guys are gone just enjoy yourself without a care about your yard...it will get done & be wonderful...just not this week.

    Thanks everyone! (Darlene, I like that, I don't mind at all. ) Maybe Hannah and I will go to a few garden centers and browse. And maybe we will have a girlie night "Camp out" in front of the tv...
