But I have reached the boiling point again and I really don't want to start a fight with my husband right now. You see, he and I are the babysitters for our grandson when SD works on the weekend or if she works in the evenings when daycare is closed. The problem is, she has been working mostly evenings, so we have been babysitting a lot. Tomorrow, she is working 12-5, but she doesn't know if daycare is open. (I would have asked long ago about that, but that is another story.) Now, DH has invited her and her boyfriend, and 2 other couples over for New Year's Eve. He plans to go over to his buddy's store for 4 hours tomorrow to help him with something, but should be back by 2. What is the problem? Well, I had a few plans of my own based on my NOT babysitting tomorrow, but guess what? And before you say, "Well just tell DH to stay home," he is already being pissy about it and I am very tired of being the bad guy. I am also tired of babysitting. DH watches him a lot, but I am tired of having him at our house all the time. Yes, I know how selfish I sound, but I chose not to have kids of my own for a reason. I like having free time to take care of stuff around my house. I like not having to make sure that no one is spilling things or breaking things. I like not watching cartoons and I like not changing diapers.

Sorry, but I am tired of this and I am very cranky. UPDATE: I should also add that the other part of the reason why I chose not to have kids is because DH has fibromyalgia, high blood pressure and diabetes, so I have my hands full with him on some days. I really sound like I hate kids, and I don't. I just have enough on my plate as it is and I was just a little fed up with having had my grandson in my home for 5 straight days. As it turns out, daycare was open today, so I get to do my errands.
