I feel like I am completely losing it - sick of DH being gone

luvmykids wrote: EVERYTHING crappy happens when he's gone and I'm about to go over the edge. Last week there was a rattlesnake and thank god DH called the neighbor who was already outside to hop over the fence and kill it for me. But tonight there was ANOTHER freaking snake by the hay...this time I had the car down there so I ran over it but still didn't kill it and it got somewhere I couldn't take the car.

I'm pretty sure this one was just a bullsnake but I still can't handle snakes....AT ALL and I just want to be able to yell for DH to come deal with it

lisar replied: get a shotgun and shoot it. With that gun you dont have to aim so much cause its a shotgun.
But yea I love having dh around to yell for

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Oh Mon that's horrible!!

I knew there was a reason we don't live in the country. I sure as heck couldn't call for DH...he's more afraid of snakes than I am!

mammag replied: I'm so sorry you're having a rough time. I can't imagine how I would deal if dh weren't around.

luvmykids replied:
That's what he told me to do when I saw the rattler and wouldn't get close enough to kill it with a hoe but I'm scared to do that too....I get so shell shocked when I see a snake of any kind that I'm afraid I'd hurt myself before the snake ever had to worry

My3LilMonkeys replied: I would come deal with them for you if I could - I like snakes.

A&A'smommy replied: I'm sorry sweetie!!

My2Beauties replied: I"m sorry hon I'm scared to death of snakes too!

Kaitlin'smom replied: give me a shovel and a hatchet and I will take care of them. I took care of the one that was in our yard, DH is afriad of them and Kaitlin was less than thrilled to see it. so mommy had to deal with it.

sorry he cant be around more to help with them

MommyToAshley replied: You are doing better than me. I would have lost it at the sight of the first snake. YIKES.

Hope you DH is home soon.

Calimama replied: We have a saying around here, "if it's going to go wrong.. it's going to the second DH leaves." Always works out that way, much to my dismay lol.

jacobsmama replied: awww I am sorry..when does he get home??

luvmykids replied:
No idea He's in Houston now and has some jobs lined up but I don't know if he'll come home for a visit or just whenever we're ready to move

luvmykids replied:

HuskerMom replied: I hope he's able to come home soon! But when he does no snakes will show up!

Brias3 replied: OMG, I would have freaked out!

Plenty of 's your way- I totally know what its like to be in that boat! It's overwhelming sometimes, isn't it?

youngmomofone replied: Im sorry he's not there to help you with the snake problem

I hear ya though. My dh has been gone almost 11 months now and we have had a horrible year. one bad thing after another. Luckily he has 2 months left since he is coming home 2 months earlier than his orders say.

punkeemunkee'smom replied: I am sorry Mon! It is true that when they work the way our DHs do the majority of crap that goes wrong does so when they are gone...It can get to you sometimes but just remember that he is trying to better your family and providing the best he can right now....it doesn't make the snakes go away but it may help you from hitting him with the hoe when he gets home!

luvmykids replied:
OMG Abbie that has me ROFL because he was teasing me about being to scared to kill the rattlesnake with the hoe, and I said he better shut up because hitting him with it would be another story
