I had the BRIGHT (not) idea to go to the mall today with Aidan in tow. GRUMBLE. What the hell was I thinking? He was fine the first half of the trip. We looked around a few stores, he played in the Zoo Court, and asked cute questions. THEN, he turned into little MONSTER Aidan. I thought he was hungry, so off to the food hall we went. Oh nope. He threw a tantrum there, and we came home. So I figured–oh, he’s tired, we’ll just take a nap. Sure enough, he was falling asleep in the car on the way home, but of course, something happened in the 30 second transition between car and bed. He woke up and proceeded to be annoying for 90 minutes. *sigh* So that means I’m still tired, and I am hesitant about going out later because he didn’t actually nap which could mean yet another meltdown, but I’m so antsy and really not wanting to stay here all day. *sigh* So now what?

Although, the places I’d go this evening would be places that involve shopping carts, so he’d be somewhat restrained, anyway. But man, he and I do more arguing than I’d like, which is frustrating. I try to keep the upper hand, but he always has the last word! And sometimes he’s so unreasonable. For example:

Ronni: Aidan, stop yelling.
Aidan: YOU STOP YELLING!
Ronni: Aidan, I’m not the one who is yelling.
Aidan: YES YOU ARE! NOW STOP IT!

o.O

So whatever else happens, whatever fun thing he was doing gets taken away when he speaks to me that way. I am NOT trying to have my kid on Jerry Springer or something in a few years cussing me out up and down the coastline.

Anyway…

Now it smells good here because I just made Aidan a pot pie. Ugh, I am so freaking tired. 🙁 No rest ’til tonight/tomorrow, though. I think we will head out to a couple of stores tonight, though, to keep me from going stir-crazy.

Later!

Saturday Morning

Current Temp is 28ºF. It’s finally starting to feel like Christmas time. I get excited about the cold temps for about two weeks, then once January hits, I’m done. Ha. I went outside for a second to get some Christmas CDs out of my car. Now I am uploading them to my computer to make holiday mixes. YAY.

I finally built my book case last night. I always forget about how much I HATE to build them when I am buying them, but now that it’s built, it looks awesome. And all the foiled sides are facing the correct direction, for once. Not to say that I didn’t have to pull out a couple of screws and fix a shelf last night….

Still sick. Aidan woke up at 8:30 this morning. I was so NOT into waking up. He let me “rest” for another hour, but I’m still beat, and he’s a ball of energy. Eep. I took a Nyquil at midnight to help me sleep–and it’s not worn off completely yet. I’d LOVE to curl up and go back to bed, but if I do, Aidan will get me back out of bed. Speaking of Aidan, he just said “oh, for Heaven’s sake.” Oh sheesh. Why are children so hyper when their mommies are sick?

I just learned that Aidan enjoys drinking hot water.

I have gifts picked out for people–I just need to get paid so I can actually buy them. I’m excited about wrapping presents, as usual. Tee-hee.

And I got a very nice letter from starrlyte!! I love long letters, and I’m excited to write back! 🙂

I think I am going to make some wild berry muffins in a bit. And have them with bacon. Usually, if I tell Aidan they’re “cupcakes,” he’ll eat one.

Now, if only I could realistically climb back into bed for a few hours…. heh.

Aidan wants to “cuddle wuddle.” Later!
