I feel moody...and burned.
The day started out really great, mom and dad finally came home from their great trip :) and then Chrissy came by and we went to yearbook where we got a bunch of work done :) and then i came back home and we went to my aunts house for dinner...
So while my parents were gone, stuff still needed to be done, my sister took it upon herself to do a lot of cleaning and tidying up since she knows my mom likes it when she comes home to a clean house. She is also the type of person where things have to be perfect. insanely perfect. She did a lot of cleaning and took lots of responsibility like doing the laundry and taking out the garbage...I'll totally admit to that, but she didn't really ask me to do anything. She asked me to dust and I did, normally I'm the type of person to not clean and leave that to others, but when I have to do it, I will. My sister assumed that I still wouldn't do it which is why she did it all herself and then kept listing it all off. Still, I understand, when you do something, you want credit for it. So I'm guessing that she told the whole family because they all made a comment about how Jamie did a ton of cleaning, and Teri didn't do shit. I wasn't asked to help, but neither was she and she did it anyways, so i guess i don't have anything to complaing about. But this one comment just got to me, aparently one of my uncles made some comment about how my sister was like Cinderella doing all the cleaning and staying at home and I went out. I went out on Saturday to a baseball game with my cousins and other uncle. I went because I hadn't spent a lot of time with them lately and I thought it would be nice to see and hang out with them. I also got a massive sun burn from the game and am now currently red. really really red. I guess I shouldn't have let it get to me, but that "Cinderella" comment really did, because I didn't ask her stay home or not go out so that I could and party. If she had wanted to go out and stuff and asked me to split the chores I really would have because I know i've been going out lately. It just seems like when she used to go out all the time when she was in high school, it was okay for her to do that because she was older. Well it was the same deal, she went out with her friends and all of that well...someone still had to take out the garbage, and fold the laundry and all of that stuff. But since she was older and wanted to go out it was okay. When I go out, then oh poor jamie has to do all the work. They just made me feel like such a burden and if i wasn't there things would have been a lot easier. I just hate that I really do. I don't know why I let all this crap get to me, if i don't let it get to me it's really not that big of a deal. but i don't know.
