Today was an... interesting day. Yesterday my Mum, my Grandmother and I started painting my bedroom because we're moving. Today was the day we put on the second coat to finish all the painting. I love my Grandmother and all but gosh did she get on my nerves today. I know she's trying to help, but she just has to touch everything! and move everything! Even if I say what I'm gonna do with something she'll try to move it and put it somewhere else.
For example, I said I was going to wash my sheets today. She started to make my bed and move all my covers around and put comforters in my clothes, so I told her again that I was gonna wash them so she shouldn't bother making my bed, but she wouldn't listen. She doesn't seem to listen! Ever! She always thinks what she's doing is right, so if someone says otherwise, it doesn't matter because her way is right. I'm not the only one who thinks this. My Aunt and my Mum also agree strongly.
I just wanted to vent a little bit. She makes me very stressed out when she's here and starts moving all my stuff around. I really, really do understand she wants to help, but if I tell her what I'm going to do with something, there's a reason why I'm saying it. I don't need her to do something else with it. Just leave it be! Ugh!!!
Also, she feels the need to always tell me to go do certain stuff. She told my Aunt she couldn't believe that me and my Sister didn't help out my Mum. It's not like she lives her everyday and sees whether or not we help her out. I really do help my Mum out, probably more than she thinks. To be accused of never helping out because the time that she comes over I don't do much is very frustrating. I think I just have a short fuse lately with her? I don't ever remember her being like this when I was younger, but lately she just gets on my nerves in about a minute.
I just can't wait for her to leave. I know this probably all sounds very mean and ungrateful, but I don't mean for it to come off that way at all. I'm just very irritated. Maybe because it's almost "that time of the month" but still. Sheesh!
Now that I've gotten that out, onto what I ate today. I did fairly well today so far. Although I came home from work and had a bowl of cereal which probably wasn't something I should have had, but it's fine because I am still within my calorie intake for the day. I'm not sure why but I just felt really hungry. I also ended up eating the last of my Easter candy. I had one miniature chocolate bunny, 4 peeps and one Cadbury egg. Obviously NONE of these are healthy, but I really have no will power. Even though Jillian says there's no such thing and that if it's there you'll eat it. Maybe I'm the perfect model of that idea.
I haven't eaten dinner yet, but I'm going to have left over ham from Easter and some sort of vegetable, not sure which kind yet though.
I guess I feel a little better now that I've written in my journal. It kind of clears my head. That might change once my Grandmother tells me to do something else, but for now I feel a little better.
