That is the word that best describes my feelings right now. It has been one long day. I don't think much has gone right, but thankfully not a lot has gone really wrong. I am babysitting my neighbor's neice and she taught me something. I always was saying that I wanted a little girl, but I'm thanking God I have a little boy. Apparently my son started to fall backwards down the stairs and did what every normal person would do, he grabbed the nearest thing. Unfortunately that happend to be her hand. Well in the process he pops her nuckle and she cries like she is the one that fell. He ended up falling a little anyway and has a huge red mark all down the side of his face. He was shook up but didn't cry or even whimper. She cried and whinned for about ten minutes. My lovely husband looked at me and said "I just don't get girls" Thank heaven for little boys!!!
I was reading where the president decided he was going to send more troops to Iraq. I wasn't in the least bit surprised that he was sending more troops. That seems to be his answer to everything lately. I as fine until I read where he said this "Where mistakes have been made, the responsibility rests with me." Ok..I get what he was trying to say, trying to do. It just made me mad that he thinks saying he is responsible is going to make up for the fact that we have to pay for his mistakes. I don't see his children wondering when their Daddy is going to leave again and then wondering if he is coming back. I don't see his wife wondering if the last time she spoke to her husband on the phone is going to be the last kiss ever. How dare he think that sentence makes it all better that instead of doing something that is going to actually make things better, he's just sending more of our husbands off to a place we can't promise they will come back from.
I know that people will disagree with me and that is their right, but this is my opinion and my feelings at the moment. I think I've more than earned my right to them.
