Good Morning Elizabeth and all Lovely Ladies
Welcome to the Weekend
I had a fairly unfocused day yesterday. Just couldn't settle to do much. Fluttered around most of the day, half doing things. I did get my exercise done. Thankfully things are not too CHAOTIC.
WARNING - RANT BELOW
Then after dinner DH 'cracked a funny'(well he thought he was funny) and really P'ed me off. I had just mentioned that I was back on track with my diet and had only 6kgs to lose for my 2014 target, I was feeling pretty happy about that, proud even, and then he asked if I was using the 'new' (found on the neighbours front lawn and restored by me) Home Gym. I flexed my bicep and said 'Yes, about 3 times a week, feel'. He made a crack about it to DD16 and they both had a real good laugh. Ha ha, very funny, NOT!!!! Like a need a blow to my body image. It just really P'ed me off. I never have a go at him in front of the kids, in fact I never have a go at him. After spending the last 6 months planning and preparing and serving every morsel of food going into his mouth so he could follow the diet and lose his weight, I just don't feel I get the same support, or any support really. Other than finally purchasing the Elliptical Machine (after me wanting one for about 10years - and which I think he decided he might use so it was him that wanted it), I can't think of a single thing he has done to help MY weight loss journey. But I can think of plenty of thoughtless remarks and ingratitude by him that has tried to re-rail my efforts and motivation. And to add insult to my injury he didn't thank me for dinner or his lunch yesterday. He is usually well trained in the 'Thanks for Dinner'(I trained him and the kids at the same time), but the 'Thanks for Lunch' comes and goes. I really shouldn't have to ask for him to show some gratitude, should I? Well in fact I have asked him to be grateful. Several times, and then it just falls off again. Man I'm P'ed off with him.
So after that I became hyper focused on cleaning up after dinner and staying in the family room fluttering about and not joining DH in the lounge room which I would normally do. So I have a very Shiny Sink this morning. Why do they do that? Bloody MEN!!! And to top it off I had a fairly unsettled nights sleep too. MEN!!! I predict DH has a very 'cool' weekend ahead.
RANT OVER
Today I need to fold a couple of baskets and wash another load or 2. Blue sky in every direction, but forecasts for a cold front on the way. We have been so spoiled with lovely days this week, almost thought Winter has passed, still very cold at night.
Wishing you all a Super Saturday and a Wonderful Weekend.
