Get On With It.

I am in 2 fantasy football leagues and I used to enjoy it. I now don't really care. I hate drafting; we did my first draft last night. You basically go up and down an order and pick players to fill a set roster. I do not understand why the last two rounds have to take 40 min when you are basically picking your back up defense and kicker. It is basically pick one that does not have the same bye week. I cannot believe how long it took grown men to decide this. I just wanted to scream, " Get On With It." I can't wait to do it again on Monday when we have to do it with the biggest spoiled man I have ever seen. I really like the guy until he doesn't get his way and then he is almost like Peanut Butter. Speaking of which, she decided to go berserk in the library today and bit me so hard. I am amazed she didn't draw blood.
I am doing the rummage sale this Fri and Sat. I hope I make more than the 30 dollars it cost to place the freaking ad. J talked me into it today. We also had our closure talk on Sunday morning. We have decided no more kiddos unless we should win the lotto. It was an interesting talk. We discussed a lot of pros and cons. I had thought J was totally a no, but it was a hesitant no. He really just wants to move forward and in reality I do to. In fantasy land, I'd like another, but I find it daunting enough dealing with PB and as I told J there are days I feel like the worst mom. I have little patience and tend to yell. As much as I try to curb this it is still and issue for me. I do want to thank the peeps who suggested the 1-2-3 method. I took out the book and have been using it. It is somewhat working. I got how it said it was just as much a cooling of for me as it is for her.

i think all of us feel like the worst mom at one time or another.... and it's always good to keep your options open - with more babes! :)

There have been far too many days lately when I feel like the world's worst mother too. Too many. I have such a crappy temper. I think I am the one who needs a time out most of the time.
So, who is your FF quarterback? ;)

You are so not alone, I think we ALL feel like that. I know I do.

I'm not in any FF leagues anymore but my hubby is in 2, so I live vicariously through his CRAPPY roster.

Oy. Ve.

Brian's draft took 6 hours on Sunday. Absolutely ridiculous! I don't know how you do it.

Don't worry, I've felt like the worst mother ever lately. Apparently we all have our days. It seems I've had far too many lately!

At least the two of you have come to an agreement that you are both ok with. That's the important part.

I think my hubby is the only guy who doesn't care about fantasy football.

It sounds to me that you are a great mom - don't be so hard on yourself. We have all been in your place.

I've learned that feeling like the worst mom is actually quite normal!
Good luck with the garage sale, and I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you win the lotto!

I wish I did, but I don't understand football . . . let alone fantasy football.

And don't worry for even a second that you might be the worst mom ever, you can't be 'cuz I already hold that honor! :eek:

I think all good parents worry that they're bad parents. The ones who relly are bad just don't givea damn and don't even think about it.

Also? No - the last dude's letter in my post was not from my husband. I had somebody else ask me that, too. Anyway - my husband's letters are way better than that. But I admit - the guy's letters were hilarious.
