My family (i.e., husband, offspring) and I are not friends tonight.

unrelated... i have been watching your 'current music' tags lately... are you listening to a lot of the PPM 'carry it on' collection?

[pegkerr.livejournal.com]

No, I don't have that one, but I've been listening to a lot of their various albums.

I was just thinking of you. My son has been stomping around the house sulking all evening since I told him that getting out of school to see Neil Gaiman was his sister's birthday thing, and that he would not be coming. (She's been looking forward to this for weeks, but then Neil cancelled a signing.)

Now I have an indignant-looking blue quilt stalking through the house. Earlier it stalked past the kitchen table out into the garden, sulked, then stalked back through to see if anybody had noticed. At this very moment it is sulkily refusing to eat a cream puff that is birthday cake.

Being a mother/spouse isn't all cream and kisses.

I was the one stomping, actually. I finally went out to a coffeeshop. All four of us were tired of my yelling.

Thanks.

And I still love them.

I just didn't like them very much last night.

We all feel that way about our nearest and dearest at some point or another. It's because they are so near and dear.

So sorry. Just remember you have lots of other, quieter, less annoying friends.:g:.

[cakmpls.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that happens sometimes.

Hope this passes soon.

We hurt each other more because we are inside each others' armor. It's the price we pay for love.

Hug them each and every one, when you are happier with each other.
