I feel like I've been nothing but moody lately. Poor hubby has had to put up with me getting annoyed with him at little things he does (or doesn't do). I feel like I've lost all patience for him, our cat, and even myself. I'm at the point where I get annoyed with myself when I forget to take my medicine or have to get out of a comfortable position to pee.
I know I have the right to use a lot of excuses. I'm pregnant, I haven't slept well in a few months, I have acid reflux so bad that some nights I can't even lay down without getting sick, and baby likes to test his strength by kicking my cervix. The truth is that I never like using excuses because I always consider it stronger to just 'man up' about it and overcome it. I'll allow myself to use the hormone excuse only because otherwise I feel like an awful person for how I've been behaving.
Having no patience is a new experience for me. Perhaps it is a cruel biological joke of learning how to function without certain luxuries like a full night's sleep or a content stomach. My poor husband has been so patient with me as I have to relearn the meaning of patience under less than ideal circumstances. I've gone so far as to criticize the way he plays his video games, and he's mostly taken it in stride with a few exasperated "yes dear"s.
I sure hope I get my patience back soon. I hate being the pregnant lady monster.
