Worst Morning Ever!
So hubby has a problem. Hubby gets tired at a decent time in the night but stays awake until a ridiculous time and tends to just randomly pass out, normally on the couch. For a while he would wake up after a couple of hours and wander back into the bedroom, then it started to be me waking him up and getting him to the bed. I told him yesterday that I was over that, since he broke my phone and it won’t charge he has been using his phone as an alarm, well we finally dug the alarm clock out of other room so I could have an alarm. So last night as usual I went to bed earlier than him and we had a conversation that included a couple of promises about him not falling asleep on the couch and he would come to bed. So, as usual I wake up randomly through out the night and hubby is not there, it is a pretty quick conclusion that he has once again passed out on the couch and though I was tempted to go grab him I decided to actually stick to my word and so just went back to bed waking up occasionally. Come the morning his alarm is going off and he is not turning it off and then the main alarm goes off, once that happens I go out and tell him to wake up he has to get ready for work and all that. He eventually comes into the bedroom and lays down on the bed all upset. He says he feels really bad and I am irritated and pissed off and so we snip at each other a bit. In the end for some reason I start feeling bad, no idea why and that just pisses me off more, I try to make him feel better and let us both be a bit happier but it seems he is having none of that. It just builds up into a ton of stupidity and he flips out on me for feeling bad and feeling like he is taking it out on me because he swears he isn’t but just the fact the he is so angry obviously is going to come back at me somewhat. Considering he was the one who messed up you would think he would be trying to make it up and be nice to me but apparently not. So he ends up leaving all pissed off and I am pissed off and it was just a stupid bad morning. He called me on his lunch but that wasn’t spectacular either. I really hope that tonight isn’t this stupid…
OUCH! Stupid husband…
Life, at this moment, is boring….and painful. I went to workout yesterday after having already done PT earlier and now I hurt, so sore. When hubby got home I asked him to crack my back and he got some amazing deep cracks. A little relief but overall, still sore, and I have to PT tomorrow and I am gonna let my supervisor kick my butt with a second workout round again. I am doomed, but hopefully it will be worth it…hopefully.
Hubby’s new job is so far good though I have found my issue with it, there always has to be one. Last night hubby didn’t get home until I was pretty much already in bed (I go to sleep early to be fair) and so we had no “us” time. Since this shop is supposed to be one of the biggest in the district it gets tons of work which means him being so late probably won’t be an entirely uncommon thing. It sucks especially because we won’t have weekends, he gets his days off during the week. I really hope they put him on opening shifts that way we will have some time together and the carpool will actually work out better. As it stands while he works I am carpooling with my supervisor which irritates me a bit. I asked many times if there was going to be an issue with him getting up early and making this all work carpooling and sharing one car and he said no problem, he was doing it while he was in Cali so he would be fine. Fail, he doesn’t want to have to wake up early when he works later so he wants me to get rides with my supervisor. Fine, except that means I kind of have to go do the workout thing with her and if she leaves late I have to leave late. I hate depending on other people for rides and stuff like that, it means if I am running late I screw them up too. Ugh, whatever, she is moving soon so I probably won’t be able to carpool then he has to suck it up.
Home Alone…
Hubby is off to his first day of work and I have the apartment to myself for the first time since he got here. I am enjoying it, I love him and I love spending time with him but everyone needs a little time on their own. He usually gets his time because he was here before while I was at work and he stays up way later than I do. I haven’t really done a whole lot today, just kind of sat here and relaxed. I moved a couple of pieces of furniture and have been doing some laundry and doing bits and pieces of things here and there but not going too crazy. Luckily hubby did a lot of cleaning last night before he came to bed, he also started marinading some meat for dinner tonight and I smelled the marinade and I cannot wait to have dinner tonight. Hopefully he comes home happy from work and hopefully the day was generally a good one. I know he is happier now that he has a job, he is one of those that without it and without money of his own he is very unhappy and feels like he isn’t putting anything into a household; even if he were doing all of the cooking and cleaning he wouldn’t be happy. So him having a job takes away money stress as well as some extra stress and annoyance from him so it will make life easier.
Edit: Dinner was amazing!
Stupid colds…
Ah, the weekend, finally. This week has been pretty blah. I haven’t been on the internet for the last couple of days, I decided instead to sit with hubby and watch movies and leave out the computers. He is still really sick which means the apartment is a total mess. Apparently he cannot put dishes away or throw away trash when he is sick *shrugs* whatever, I am not going to rag on him too much, he says he will fix that when he gets better so if he doesn’t then that is when I will start getting really irritated. Supposedly he intends to clean up some today and get through a lot of boxes to unpack today.
Work is work, it is blah. Hopefully some things have been settled and we finally got some answers we were waiting on and for now they seem to be in our favor. Other than that, nothing to new there.
We got cable. Woot for that except I was channel surfing today and a lot of the channels I want and like are not in the basic package which I find very annoying. They are one package up which is about $15 extra a month. I think I will wait for this month to pass and get the first bill with all of the installation fees and then go add the other set of channels. It is going to be interesting working this new bill into the budget but it is totally do able, especially when hubby gets a job. Supposedly he is calling up the district manager to see if he can get that job they basically told him he had. Not a straight transfer, he has to interview but supposedly it is just a basic interview then they can put him into a position. We will see how that works, then we have to figure out the car issue, having one car is gonna suck. Whatever.
Sick…
Ugh…hubby is sick. Not flu type sick just really bad cold. He is coughing a ridiculous amount which makes it so he can’t fall asleep until about 4 in the morning. So much for trying to get our sleep schedules to sync up. For the past couple of nights he has also been sleeping on the couch so he doesn’t wake me up, it is understandable, I am a really light sleeper and I need the sleep, it just sucks. Whatever, not like he was going to sleep with me anyway so I didn’t get to cuddle or anything, he just randomly shows up in the middle of the night, wakes me up while he gets in to bed and tries to talk to me then falls asleep.
I am frustrated. I am ridiculously broke right now, like literally I have budgeted down to my last dollar and though technically I have money in my account it is already spoken for. I write out a check every month to the same guy and it takes him forever to cash it but I am not going to spend the money hoping he won’t, therefor, I am broke. This also means I am stuck at home which could be nice except my apartment is jam packed with stuff and hubby and I aren’t doing anything, no connection no fun. He picks up his computer and is lost. As soon as he grabs his I grab mine and that is how the night progresses until I go to sleep. I was irritated last night and told him about it and here I sit tonight in the same situation. He got a message from someone he hasn’t talked to in years so that is why he said he has been on so long, fine, whatever.
Kudos to him for starting to wash the blankets and sheets (he needed to so he could get the cat hair off of them and hopefully sleep in the room tonight) but seriously if you are going to do that just freaking do it. Don’t let the crap sit in the washer and dryer while you are playing online with whomever especially when I specifically said before I was even close to coming home that I would be taking over the washer and dryer when I got home. GRR! I hate this, one thing gets me frustrated then it all builds up and now I am just in a horrible mood and I can’t even cuddle up in bed and go to sleep because dear hubby couldn’t finish the stupid blankets. URG! I need a vacation…
Habitat for Humanity
So hubby and I went with my shop to go do some volunteer work. A while ago I set it up so we could all go to help out with Habitat for Humanity. Yesterday there was a minor panic because they tried to cancel on me and tell that the person who schedule me accidentally scheduled me for Monday instead of today. Luckily the man in charge of the build said he would try to find stuff for us to do and let us help today. There ended up being enough for us to do and I actually had some fun. The rest of the group seemed to complain a bit but that’s ok, I think that is just the way we all are when we get together. Anyway, we got to do a lot of shoveling, they had a whole plan for us set for Monday but since we came earlier it was just a kind of whatever they could find for us. It worked out, we got in some volunteer work, got a day off of work and got in some good exercise. I think this whole week has been good for exercise with the picking up around the base and today.
Hubby and I woke up really early today and finally finished off the Uhaul. We had to turn it in today and we just barely got it all cleaned out and set. We originally thought we would be able to borrow a bit of storage from our friend but apparently she decided that wouldn’t work so we had to last minute run to get a storage at the Uhaul shop. We have a month free because of the one way rental so hopefully we can get it cleared out before that month is up. The ability to clear it out has a lot to do with hubby managing to find a job so hopefully that happens within the month time frame. We also have to unpack a bunch of stuff that is all over the apartment. Hubby says he plans to work on one or two boxes a day minimum for now until we can get through all of it. We are also planning to trash and donate a lot of stuff so I think this is going to be a long process. Oh well, hopefully we can clear out what we need to and be happy in a nice comfy clean apartment.
This Third Floor Thing is Gonna Suck…
He is here! He finally made it here lateish in the night but that didn’t stop us from going out to a nice dinner. I dressed up for him before he got here and met him at the gate, once he parked the truck we were off because we were both starving. We were both tired but we still had fun and seemed to be happy. We didn’t talk about anything deep or heavy, just light fun topics. Today is the day that we are going to go crazy trying to unpack the stupid truck. I am absolutely not looking forward to it but unfortunately it is a necessary evil. At least at the end of that I get to have a bunch of my old stuff back and hopefully discover some things that I have been missing. And, luckily, he got extra days for the truck so if we don’t get it all done today it won’t be a problem for anything except maybe parking in my complex. Meh, worst case scenario we go park it at Wal Mart or something. But the extra days are good because we are having dinner tonight with some friends so not having to stress about having it all done at a certain time is good. I have tomorrow off as well so it gives me an extra day to help unpack. This is one of those weekends that I am going to be cursing the fact that I live on the third floor…boo. Anyway, I am currently letting the poor boy sleep in for a bit considering he has been in a truck for a while and was exhausted from driving and before that had been on couches since I left, I think he is quite happy to have a nice big bed to sleep in.
Only About 8 Hours To Go!
Woot! Hubby is finally on his way! He left last night but only got a few hours in before he stopped to sleep but he is back to driving now. He is past the Grapevine and my next worry is Mount Shasta since it will be mountain windy roads with possible rain and or snow. He is about 8-9 hours away though so I am excited. All I can say is it is about time! He kept running into a ton of problems when he was packing up the truck and he would call me all upset asking what he was supposed to do. I was just kind of sitting here most of the time wondering what the hell I was supposed to do seeing as I was in Washington. We think we seriously miscalculated the cost to fill up the tank but hopefully he still has enough money to get up here. Once we actually figured out how much it took to fill the tank we recalculated and he should be able to make it…hopefully.
I have just started to clean and get my apartment ready. I figure with another 8 hours it should be fine, this place doesn’t take a lot of cleaning. I just need to actually try to reorganize some stuff on top of the usual cleaning but even that shouldn’t take long because there isn’t a lot of ways to reorganize it. I am going to try to get some clothes out of the way, maybe put my blues and uniform stuff in the hall closet or something since I don’t use them very often, I’m not sure. I need a dreser or some plastic sealable bins to put my out of season clothes in but seeing as we aren’t sure he will have the money to keep up with gas I think I will wait before making any extra purchases.
I think snowboarding for this year is out. We were going to try to go this month but honestly I think it just won’t happen but he seems to be ok with that and even though I really wanted to do it I am fine too. At least I have the pants and jacket so I won’t have to worry about it next year. The plan at the moment seems to be get him here and then he wants to pretty much immediately try to start working again. Hopefully he can work at the shop on base to make carpooling easier but we will have to see. If not then my supervisor has already said it would be fine if I ride with her to work so it will work out one way or the other. Hopefully he can get a job really quick which will be extra money coming in. Obviously he brings in extra bills so if he is bringing in the money to cover them plus some extra it should be nice. On my own I usually have a little bit of extra money to play with so he should have enough to cover himself so we aren’t always stuck in the apartment. Other than that our new goal is to try to eat a lot healthier than we have been which may be hard on a budget but to also work out more. We have the gym in our apartment we may as well take advantage of it. With a little work hopefully we can both get to where we want to be and that will help us be happier in general, I know being more in shape is making me happier in general already so actually getting to where I want to be will be awesome. I actually ran about one and a half to two miles with out stopping the other day and the last time I did that was tech school before my waiver so yay!
