Stick a fork in me



I am currently stuck in between a child that won't nap and a freakin yelping little pixie of a dog. Calgon, if you are out there, take me away!!!! Hurry!

No nappin kid and yelping idiot dog go hand in hand. How can one fall off into luscious slumber when lame ass little turd is laughing like a hyena. This all makes for a momma who only wants to sit and chill for a brief moment of time ALONE, but nooooooooooo, the new neighbors who moved in behind us (renters) had to have little powder puff thingys called dogs. Here is the oddity of it all. They moved in at the beginning of May, but only in the last couple of days have I heard the yelping. Can they please, please, please be dog sitting for the long Memorial Weekend Started Early? Can that be the case??? Waaaaaah. I have been Waahing alot lately, but COME ON.

The last go around with the kid was moments ago. He plays for a long period of time, then begins this whine/cry thing, which basically means he will do nothing else but, unless someone comes in and lays/lies (whatever) him back down. Usually, it takes one entrance to do the trick. Today, I am up to three. First one included a poop diaper. #@%#%#^ That probably IS the first culprit. Second entrance was to reset him and put all of his things back in the crib.(Don't you just love being manipulated?) Third visit was much of the same, but with a little attitude from me. Isn't that so nice of me? Basically, I scared him into getting serious about taking a nap. Sigh. Is it the long weekend yet?

Hubs was gone all last weekend as you recall, so I haven't had a morning off, let alone a moment without this little one. Until I can regroup and hug him a little bit tighter this afternoon showing him mommy doesn't mean to fly off the handle and truly loves him no matter what, I'll have to stare at these sweet photos I took of him this morning. He loves to appease his mommy when it comes to photo sessions. "No, honey, put the hat back on"................

um, ok I had more than one photo to share, but tell me this, why are all my photos from iphoto coming out sideways??? Until I can correct the issue, I'll leave the one above.....This calls for a second diet coke. Grrr....

Do you have a community association you can complain to about the dog?

Very cute photo.

We have by-law services that take care of yapping dogs, or I guess they visit the owners and can hand out fines, etc. They don't really "take care" of them ;).

But, along the same lines my next door neighbours wake up my son almost every single day and sometimes twice because they keep strange hours and were never taught how not to slam the front door or turn down their radio, they move in a month... can't wait!

Hope they are just dog sitting.

oops, I wanted to add that I find it so fun that you know my favourite beach!

I know the pink hotel and always want to eat at that restaurant, but never do. And yes, we will totally be doing the outlets, can't go without a little shopping.

first that is a cute photo of baby boy! so no naps already? J stopped at 2 1/2- she wouldn't, just WOULDN'T take a freaking nap- so I hired a nanny, who then became my live in - I wrote about her here; http://itsmylife51969.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html

I still miss her. I should have kept her and ditched the guy- for real.
