Stressed and mini Breakdown ...

So I had to take today off work, I was just way too stressed out. My parents have been in FL for over a week now and we have been watching Silky. About a week ago Mike let Silky in and she came and laid by my feet on the carpet in our living room. I started smelling something terrible and realized that Silky had rolled in poop and then laid on the carpet. I FLIPPED OUT! Mike took her outside and gave her a bath and I started going crazy about how gross the house was and about how I hated pets and I never wanted them. It has been all downhill since then. I decided we needed to shampoo every carpet in the house. I gathered up all Jemma's toys and sorted them and cleaned and sanitized every one of them. We then vacuumed and shampooed the carpet in our living room. This was several evening after work during the week. Mike took Friday off and mowed the lawn in the morning saying I would have all Saturday to do what I wanted. I then took Jemma to a playgroup while Mike went to Home Depot. Afterwards we picked up the new TV and had to go to the Howard Street house because the people were moving in the next day and we had to get the last items out of the house. Ben and Karen came over that night and we hung out with them. Then on Saturday Mike wanted to install the new TV and started around 10am and didn't finish until 6pm. There was no baby proof areas in the house to take Jemma so I was constantly chasing after her so I was so sore and exhausted. I had a mini breakdown that night and told Mike I couldn't go to his grandfathers birthday on Sunday because the house was such a mess. I ended up going on Sunday with the agreement we would leave by 4pm. Of course, we didn't leave till 6 because Mike's mom needed Mike to install the new Blu-Ray player and his dad wanted him to see stuff in the garage. I was so pissed on the way home. When we got home, Jemma was with the MP and Pops, so Mike and I started cleaning the house. Mike cleaned the bathrooms while I vacuumed and cleaned all the rugs and carpets and blankets. I was tired and so incredibly sore. I woke up Monday still stressed out and Mike said I should just stay home. I didn't have the leave for it so I felt bad but I knew it was for the best because my parents were gone and Jemma was with Mike's mom. I worked more around the house, doing laundry, cleaning the hardwood floors and organizing my scraproom. I'm glad I stayed home from work because otherwise, I would have just been a big ball of stress all week.
