Relationships

Hmmm...yes, relationships are hard. Funny thing is that they are usually not as hard as we think they are.

Turns out all of my frustration, though clearly it was not unfounded, it may have just been a bit premature. I do get frustrated a lot, but apparently I was facing my first round with PMS in 19 months. Yea me. Isn't that fun? Breastfeeding a baby keeps those kinds of things at bay for a long time, but alas it has all returned, including some issues with my mood. Fun for Robert, but then he's not them most evenly-mooded guy in the world either, so I'm sure he understands.

Pictures are easy to remedy. He now has a lovely picture of me on his desk, and I'm making him a family collage to hang. I'm making us a beautiful framed piece for above our bed, it's a black frame with six white mattes inside, for six black and white photos of us. It will be really pretty in lieu of a headboard, I think. I'm making a small version with family photos, not just us, for his office. See how easy that was? Oversights don't always have to mean problems.

As for anything else I've been frustrated about, well.....like I said. It wasn't all unfounded, but maybe I don't have to make a big deal about it. Sometimes life is much easier when we just let go of things.

Like I said before, I feel lucky to have Robert and his family in my life. I don't have real complaints, but sometimes it's fun to air frustrations, just to vent. This life is a blessing. I have four happy children, and they get two happy parents, most of the time, and I think that makes us all lucky.

Of course, with the return of instability and hormonal surges, let's just see how I feel tomorrow! LOL!!
