I'm tired of winter now. I don't mind the cold and I love the snow but I'm just sick to death of all these gray skies and dreary days. Blech. I want SUNSHINE!
I think it affects your brain function as well as your mood. The whole weekend, my husband acted like some weird alien sucked part of his brain out of his head. The part that makes him reasonable to his wife. The other part of his brain was working well though. He got the stereo receiver to work properly, saving us hundreds of dollars! And he finished the last corner of the dry wall in the bathroom. Now he can finally start on the floor. Maybe we'll actually get it done this year. I swear, this has got to be the longest bathroom remodel in history! And he wanted to be helpful this weekend, but the missing part of his brain made his helpfulness come out all jumbled up and wacky. He only emptied 1/2 the dishwasher. He made omelets for dinner but the kitchen looks like he made omelets for 50, not 2. He even offered to do the grocery shopping yesterday, so I made him a list, which we spent 20 minutes going over...
"eggs, you mean a dozen eggs?"
"a head of what kind of lettuce?"
"how many mushrooms?"
"what kind of bread?"
"what does gal mean?" (next to milk)
See what I mean? It would be different if he's never been to a grocery store, but he goes shopping with me almost every week! Then he re-wrote the entire list...1 can of___, 1 doz. large white eggs, 1 package mushrooms, 1 head iceberg lettuce, 1 loaf oatmeal bread, etc. Geez!
However...I really do appreciate that he wanted to be so helpful. Honest! But next time, I'll probably pass on sending him to the grocery store.
