(DISCLAIMER: I love my hubby and baby girl more than anything. And we have the greatest families. The following just needed to be said so that I can get OVER IT!! Plus, I don't think many people will read this anyways!)
So I know that people usually blog about all things good in their lives. I try to be positive, but I think that sometimes a girl needs to vent... right?!?! And since this blog is my journal, it ends up here. If you do happen to read this, please don't judge. So without further ado, I confess that...
... I was ready to wring Zoey's neck tonight.
... Sometimes I want to eat chocolate ice cream for dinner.
... Sometimes I'm honestly sick of PeOpLe! (Some of who may or may not have the same last name as us...)
... I really should probably work on taking Zoey's bottle away but it's so nice to just give her half a bottle and lay her in bed at night. I'm just not ready yet.
... I HATE cleaning the bathrooms. And doing laundry. (Luckily my hubby cleaned the shower a couple days ago. Made my day! Thanks babe!) Now if I could just find someone to do my laundry every day...
... I don't like feeding Zoey dinner... or breakfast... or lunch. She's PICKY!!! Plus with her food allergies it's hard to find things she can eat. I'm tempted to feed her PB&J or noodles every day.
... I'm a sporty girl, but I get sick of watching sports 24/7. I think Nick takes advantage of the fact that I like sports. Our TV is permanently tuned to ESPN. Arrggg... I don't think he even cares that they play the same thing over and over and over and over...
... I get frustrated when Nick does the same stupid little things that bug me even when I've asked him to stop. (Put your dish in the stupid dishwasher!) But to be fair (and risk ruining my own spotless reputation), I know that I do the same to him! All's fair in love...
... I am SO SICK of watching Spongebob Squarepants! Nick is too.
... I am impatient. I'm not super happy with the trial of our faith that Nick and I are going through right now. We've tried hard to put our trust in God and do what we're supposed to be doing, but the rewards that we should be getting are a long time coming.
Hmmm..... I feel better. That was cleansing and freeing. Plus putting all these trivial things down on paper really makes me realize that they are just that..... TRIVIAL! I'm so lucky that these are my biggest concerns right now. We truly are blessed. Why don't you try it? I promise that I won't tell anyone....

Don't worry, I had an entire post of how overwhelmed and tired I am right now. Yes, I know I am extremely lucky and blessed to have the life I do, but I also use my blog as a journal so if people can't deal with some venting then they need not read our blogs! Hope you get feeling better though, let me know if you need to vent to someone who would definitely NOT judge and would have no personal connection with anything you need to vent about so wouldn't feel torn about whose side to take :)
lol, oh I love you Kandi!!! I am the queen of venting on my blog. I liked how you ended it, though, that those things are trivial. Also I liked how you wrote over and over and over, you are cute!!!
I also am sick and tired of Spongebob!
I bet it feels a lot better... maybe I will try it :)
Oh goodness I loved this!
Glad to know I am not the only one that frets and gets grumpy over the most trivial things. I get so irritated that Eric just automatically assumes the TV will be playing something sports related when a big game is on. Which is pretty much every game according to him.
Great idea I can imagine this would be a very cleansing thing to do, just writing it out makes everything seem better. I may just have to do the same, thanks for the laugh! Hope that little Zoey behaves herself tommorow!
Sometimes you just need to vent. Sometimes I feel like I'm supposed to have a perfect life and not complain about anything. I love my life and I love my kids more than anything. But sometimes I have a bad day and I need to vent too. I completely understand where you're coming from. I'm glad you feel better after you got that off your chest :)
Such is a mom's life. I can totally relate to so much of this. It made me chuckle because so many of the things stressing you out are just the same as me. I'm glad writing about it made you feel a little better.
Refreshing. Truly refreshing. Thank you for this post. Sometimes those super happy posts, that make you wonder if they are embellishing or just trying to sound like all is sunshine and roses make me want to GAG!
One of these days when my kids (aka Ben) get better we will have to work out again! That, along with writing things down, helps me vent for sure! It's nice having someone to talk to and having someone for Ben to play with for a little bit! Here's hoping the flu goes away quickly!
P.S.~ I love the background and text on your blog...so cute!
I promise I know thow the feeling and I love your honesty!!!!
you have many people that love and care for you...look at your responses!!!! You are a great mother and wife and things will get better.
Well Kandi, after seeing this post, maybe you need to come back to work at NDJH. We still miss you. Seriously, hang in there. We all have these bad spells, but thank goodness, life overall is great.
