One After The Other

This afternoon is turning into a doozy of an afternoon.

It just seems like one thing after another is going wrong. For starters, I dropped my filled-to-the-brim, just bought, Big Gulp on the ground. My daughter is teething so her father's "no" turned into a onslaught of tears so fierce that I was curious if she'd ever stop. My husband's bad mood about lack of funds. Roo's endless demands to nurse.

Everything is just provoking a bad mood. The puppy, the in-laws, the ant bite... everything!

On top of it all, the cherry on top, is that Roo has started misbehaving with the dogs. She's pulling ones tail while poking the puppy in the face. I'm so nervous that she's going to get bitten by one of them. I've told her no, I've swatted her tush, I've told her Dad to tell her no... nothing there works.

What is a Mom to do?

Run screaming from the house all the while pulling my hair out?

Tempting, huh?

My daughter chases our cat around all day. I've tried "no" & all of that & she just laughs. She's now trying to pick her up & keeps pulling her tail. She's almost 15 months old. I was hoping she'd outgrow it already. My cat is 11 years old. That's like 75 years old in cat years.
