Caution Enter at your own risk: Major Tantrum!!! For the next 60 seconds this provider will present a major tantrum.
Half an hour to get outside. Ten minutes of playing before someone whines cries screams they're cold or bored and want to go in. Snow gets in their boots, boots get kicked off or mittens constantly come off. Little ones running through the house as we're all coming in through the door with snowy boots so everybody's stepping in wet spots getting wet socks. Littles eating yucky snow off their boots because I cannot move fast enough to take care of them. Never fails as soon as we get outside someone has to go to the bathroom(yesterday it was a 7 yo???!!!) I'm like what are you 2 yos again?? I just looked at him incredulously.
It's cold. It's too dark(I know I know the light is coming!!)It's still cold. Nights are awfully wicked cold. Did I forget to mention how friggin' cold it is?? Potty training girl(bless her heart) tells me now when she has to go potty which is usually 10 minutes after we get outside even though she went before we came out. My sleds are getting broken. Temperature got into the 20's yesterday but the wind was blowing sooo hard we might as well have been on top of Mount Washington it felt so C O L D. Mother Nature definitely has a sense of humor I don't appreciate.
Oh and the latest fun thing is the ice that has built up on the roof over my playroom that the roof shoveler didn't want to knock off because he was afraid it would damage my roof?? I have 1/3 of my playroom cordoned off and buckets/towels are spread out all over to catch the flow.
My feet are always freezing. My hands are chapped beyond repair and my thumbs still split. I can't tell what color my car is anymore because the dirt/salt on it cover completely. I need to open my windows and air my house out, stop paying 500+ a month in oil bills, stay outside for more than 10 minutes at a time.
Oh and the kicker??? DD calls me from N.C. last night and says 'I walked out of work today obviously overdressed because it had gotten to 65 and my car was so hot!'
I swear I wanted to reach through the phone and do an immediate body transfer right then and there. Or at least box her ears a little.
FYI This has been a tantrum. Just a throwing myself on the floor kicking screaming tantrum. *ahem* picking myself off the floor now. Dusting the dirt off, hiking up my big girl panties and getting on with my day.
Sigh....one day closer to spring.
Anyone else???
