Still dry.

Yesterday was a very lazy day. Kids had rice krispies for breakfast. Then wifey took them to G'ma's house for an hour or two. Oh yeah, G'ma (wifey's Mom) moved up to our neighborhood from Virginia. She bought a 2 bedroom row house 3 blocks away. It'll be interesting w/ G'ma here, sistah 1 also living 3 blocks away and sistah 2 living on my third floor!

Kids came home and hit the pool while i watched them from the southern side porch. Wifey went out to the store to get some flowers for her gardens. I didn't leave the house all day! Wifey and I took a nap around 5pm while the kids were passed out on the couch.

Ate alot of food w/ no exercise yesterday. No that I am dry, I'm thinking alot about my weight. I simply want to be able to take off my shirt this summer at the pool and beach. (I hear someone stirring upstairs...) Food is kinda like my "treat" or "reward" for getting thru the day.

Henry dog got out at tleast once yesterday. I also caught him stealing food off of the table. This morning i cleaned up his poo in the living room. sistah 2 seems to take very little responsibility for this dog.

Frustrated today. Had a rough morning where everything I tried to do would fail either to my incompetence or some technicality. Arggh. Wifey is now pissed at me. Hafta smooth that over later.
The heat wave is really kinda depressing me. I am miserable in the heat. Even the simplest task becomes an ordeal as I sweat myself silly. A dread of that misery sits in the back of my mind, perspiring over every task that I contemplate.

Frustrated. Planned to skip at of work a little after 4pm and take daughter out in the kayak. Plans busted when, while talking to wife while tiptoeing thru the parking garage on my way out of the office, she said her sisters and neighbor were over. That means the 4 of them yacking, smoking, drinking and blankly staring at me. Also, neighbor's kid and our neice are over playing w/ my kids.
No peace at home and no way to spend time w/ my 2 kids. What the fuck!
But wifey prepared some crappy dinner for me to look forward too. Joy.
Stopped at both taco bell and wendy's on way home. While feeding my face, decided that nothing was at home for me. Only option would be to hide upstairs and watch TV. Decided to come back to the office and work on a couple of papers. Then come home around 8pm when the coast should be clear.
7:10pm now at the office. Haven't done too much on my papers, just largely wasting time. And I'm not eating wifey's latest dinner recipe experiment. Its clear that I am whining but am very disappointed. Been looking forward to this afternoon. Ruined by wifey and her minnions!
