so much for resolutions?

...
Does it count that I didn't make it to bed before midnight (my one and only New Year's resolution) because DD had wet the bed and I had to get her cleaned up and change the sheets on her bed and everything? Poor kid. We do not blame her if she wets the bed; she just doesn't wake up when she needs to go. She's either too deeply asleep or the signal from her bladder isn't "loud" enough to wake her up. Usually, DH gets her up around 11 to pee, which is almost always good enough to get her through the night, dry. For some reason DH told me he wasn't going to get her up, so I did when I went up near midnight, and by then she was soaking.

I'm not sure exactly why DH decided not to get her up? I think he was annoyed with me but honestly, he's been with me for 10 years now so he knows how I am... when we left DF's house last night, we took a different route. I made some questioning comments (Chandler Blvd is that way?) because I had no idea why we would be taking a different way home. Of course he knows that I want to know what's going on, but does he just offer to tell me that we're taking the new section of the 202 that just opened? Nope, he just gets annoyed with me for wanting to know. Not for nothing (as one of my sisters says), but I drive over to DF's a lot more often than he does, and it would have been nice if he had just said, "DF's husband told me the easiest way to get to the 202, so we'll go home that way." It also would've been nice if he had walked me through it, because I have a lousy sense of direction and get lost turning around, and I am not all that familiar with DF's neighborhood as it is all the way over in Ahwatukee. Yes, I know he doesn't like it when I ask him questions about what he's doing, he feels like I'm controlling him or something, but I just want to know, it's not like I'm going to tell him he's doing something wrong or to not do it or whatever. In this particular case, me wanting to know actually makes sense, only I'm sure he didn't think of it that way at the time.

The whole issue (not really an issue, is it?) is stupid and I'm sure it only came up because we both get a little frazzled around so much chaos. I'm definitely getting a "I'm sick of you" vibe from him lately, but that could just as easily be my imagination. He does have that typical male habit of not saying anything about anything bothering him until he's ready to explode. Or maybe he's just annoyed with me for telling DF about the shirt I had to return ! Well, he's just going to have to get over that... I have to talk with DF about something and what I tell her about my DH is literally nothing compares to the crap she tells me about hers.

So I finally got to bed about 12:30 but didn't fall alseep until close to 1AM, thinking about this stuff and listening to DH's snoring and rescuing the cat out of a box in the closet... Slept till 7, when DH was leaving for work and said "have a good day", then fell back asleep till about 8:30 when DS1 got up and came downstairs. We had a nice morning together. He played on the computer (The Living Sea) while I puttered around cleaning things up from last night and putting things away. We don't usually get to spend any time alone together, so it was really nice. I helped him figure out a few parts of the game that were giving him a tiny bit of trouble and he showed me some cool things he had found in the game, too. I really enjoyed that time.

Now we're just hanging out (doing laundry, again!). DF may call and come here today with her brood. When we were leaving last night, all the kids were like, "Can we do this again tomorrow?" and I said, "You should come over to our house, we don't have any plans." DH has gone to work and I know DF's DH would enjoy some quiet time at home. DF was going to visit her trainer this morning some time, maybe they will come over this afternoon, maybe not. If it turns out they don't come over I'll take the kids out somewhere and do something fun, if they're behaving themselves. They've already had a few scuffles today (sigh) and I told them if they don't shape up, no friends over and no fun trips, and so far they're doing much better.

Of course, there are Candy Land cards all over the family room right now, but that's not the worst thing in the world, especially as they are the only toy that's not where it's supposed to be!

My mom comes on Monday, so I have to try and get my act together a bit more before she gets here. Not that I'm doing badly or anything, it's just that my mom is so much more organized than I am, and because of her meds that she takes, she needs to eat certain things and on a fairly strict schedule. I really need to canvas the fridge and pantry and make sure I'm well-stocked, but I'm just not up for it today.
