Yesterday was a little stressful. Mostly for me. Thank goodness I have an amazing husband who loves me and tries to understand me even while I am acting like a psycho. That being said, here's what happened yesterday...
I was feeling really productive last night. I got my dishes done and I had just put a homemade lasagna in the oven so we could eat it the next day when we would have less time to make dinner. Wife points for me!!
So naturally I thought to do something fun as a reward for my homemaking skills. Wilson was on the computer so I sat down and decided to play Sunset Overdrive on the xbox. This is a very hard game for me, but I am determined to get better. Also it forces me to learn to use the camera. I am getting better, but I will admit that I freak out nearly the entire time that I play it. I plead with God, cried out to my husband, even my dog tried to comfort me. Eventually I gave up and trudged up the stairs to start getting ready for bed. (I might have literally dragged my feet up the stairs for effect).
Well, during my mini-depression (I HATE when I am awful at something), I forgot about the lasagna in the oven. It wasn't until I was lying in bed getting ready to say our prayer that I realized I had left the lasagna in the oven. Needless to say I went instantly insane and dashed downstairs in my underwear with no glasses. I am as blind as a bat. Thank goodness I had the presence of mind not to grab the hot pan without being able to see. Wilson not only grabbed the lasagna, but he gave me a big hug and took me to the couch to calm down. There is nothing better in this world that being comforted by your husband. I am so lucky to have him.
It turns out that I didn't even burn the lasagna. It's "well done," but edible. I felt like a failure several times last night, but luckily I had my wonderful husband to pick me back up and remind me that he loves me even if I do lose my cool sometimes... or frequently...
