losing my cool :-(
Posted in Vents
I really messed up today. I won't go into too much details. Piglet was really bratty. Rabbit was into her obsession, trying to get her way about that show I won't let her watch. I just lost it big time. And I regret it.  My dh took the kids out for a bit. They went to the library and then to the grocery store. Fortunately this was his week for the phlebotomy so he was well enough to do this without me.  Piglet locked me outside. I was checking the mail and I was angry at her because she wouldn't do something as simple as put her work in her binder. She absolutely refused. I needed an excuse to walk outside so I checked the mail. Come back to the front door to find it's locked.  The neighbors had to have heard me yelling. And she wasn't allowed to play outside for today because of that. Rabbit - well she asked me if she could watch that show she always talks about. Which one? Suite Life of Zack and Cody? "No, the other one." You're not watching Wizards of Waverly Place. Everytime it's a "why?" And I tell her, because they are wizards, they do witchcraft, the Bible is clear it's wrong and I won't have it in my house. And the wizards are shown as "good guys" - not like say, Snow White or Sleeping Beauty. If it's clearly on the "wrong side" that's okay to me. kwim? She knows this but still questions me. And she goes off very obsessed about it. She gets sent to her room a lot. I'm so tired of hearing it. Maybe I'm just burning out again and need a good ladies' night out with a friend. "L" are you reading this??  Oh I can't wait for that next phone call with my pastor friend next week. I wonder what he'd say about this? |
