Practico y practico

Tengo que mejorar mi Espanol, porque no estoy haciendo bien en la clase. Y porque yo escribo esta blog, estoy escribiendo este post en Espanol. Y porque yo quiero que esta es dificil para alguien a leer. Yo se que con google translate, no esta imposible, pero esta dificil, y esta es suficiente por ahora.

Hoy esta Lunes, yo estoy en oficina y estoy enfermo. No mucho enfermo, pero me duele la garganta y tengo un resfriado. Mi marido tiene la tos para una semana, y por eso, yo no puso duerme. Y mis suegros son aqui. Ellos llegaron del Sabado y estan con nosotros por una semana, hasta el domingo que viene. Mis suegros son muy buenos per... no son mis padres. Yo no conozco mis suegros como yo conozco mis padres. Eso es mi falta, yo no pase suficiente tiempo con ellos, yo se. Pero, mi suegra... no es como yo, o pues es exacatamente como yo. Eso yo no se.

Hoy, estoy muy cansado, y ahora estoy muy enfermo tambien. Yo oro que este tarde, ellos me deja paz y yo puedo dormir por muchas horas. Ahora, le duele mi espalda y no tengo energia para hablar con ella. Tampoco tengo energia para cocinar or participar en cualquier cosa.

iDios Mio! iSalvame!

Learning More about Myself

I knew it was going to be hard, but I did not expect this. My In-Laws are visiting for a week and I was nervous. Filled with some trepidation, because my house is not well organized, because I am not a great cook, and also because I find it hard to get along with my mother-in-law. She is a very nice person, but we are probably more alike than I would like to admit. In other words, she needs a lot of attention and what she likes to talk about is not what I like to talk about. She is also nervous around me, which makes her a little hyper.

The thing that I knew I would have to cope with is the kitchen ceasing to be mine. My Grandmother-in-law has, through years of experience no doubt, learnt how to share a kitchen, but her daughter has not. I knew I would have to relinquish, but I guess I was not prepared for how immediate and total it would be, or even how I would feel about it. I thought I would be fine with it, but no. Maybe I am just hungry...

Also, in contemplating why I am so on edge, I discover that I am still upset that last year, they chose to visit when I was not here, and more importantly, my relationship with SO remains shaky. I mean, we are fine, but he has no credit and everything his mother does to irritate me will be debited.  At least, I already realize this, so can try to be more charitable and can also tell him not to leave me alone with her just yet.

I expect that by the end of this week things will be better, I will have adjusted better etc., but I also expect that in this week, I will be blogging a lot more.
