Well, things haven't changed much... Brian is still in the rehab center trying to get better. The only good that has come from this hurricane for Becky is that she and Brian are actually speaking like friends rather than enemies, as was the case prior to the accident.
Maddie has had some terrible mood issues lately and many time outs for not listening to me. I don't know why but the not listening thing is something that totally sets me off! I got way too upset the other day with her for that, and I was frustrated with myself for how I reacted. I just lost it, over the fact that she wouldn't clean up her mess. And she completely feeds off of me, knowing she's ticking me off and continuing to do it!
Oh well, it is what it is... a 2 year old and a sleep-deprived mother. I just know now that I need to walk away from her before my temper flares. Don't get me wrong, I would never hurt my child, but I do not like the way I spoke to her, the tone of my voice, or the way I was so upset about a silly thing.
Tomorrow is a huge day at work. We make some decisions that affect college students and I worry very much about what we do to their esteem and confidence...
I'll let you know how that goes.
That's all.
