Ugly

Things are getting ugly at home. My girls and I are just not getting along. We are talking nasty to each other, and talking quickly degenerates to yelling.

Kenna is saying "you aren't my boss" and "this isn't your business" and all kinds of mean things. She refuses to do anything. Mornings have been hell with her stalling and refusing to get dressed.

Kaemie is being rude to Kenna and using sarcasm to deal with her, which does not work on Kenna. Kaemie is quietly disobediant to me. She doesn't yell at me that she is not going to do something, she just doesn't do it.

I am tired. My attitude towards my kids pretty much sucks. I'm shutting down and don't even want to deal with either one. I love them, but they are just wearing me out.

It's not just them. I know my attitude stinks, too. We need to get out of this funk and be nice to each other.
