Going Nuts

It's just been one of those days. I feel like I need to double my dose or something. Must be week-before-AF hell. But P has been driving me bonkers.
The rain finally stopped and the sun came out. He woke up an hour early from his nap, so I figured we could go outside, he'd play and I'd put some new pine chips down around the plants. No go. I turn around, and he's let himself back in the house, and has emptied out the veggie drawer of the fridge.
So I think about what he and I can do that's in the yard. He helps me pull some weeds for approx. 1 minute, then starts whining. Then starts wandering (this is close to the street). So no more weeds.
I spent about an hour today putting his bike seat on my bike, and when I asked him if he wanted to go for a ride, he said yes. Then I tried putting on his helmet. This kid must have the biggest head. He's 2, and I'm pretty sure that we need to get him an adult small helmet. The helmet I got him kinda squeaks on. Sigh. So it took me another hour to convince him that he has to wear the hat if we go on the bike. Finally I just picked him up, put him in the seat, and put the damn helmet on his head. He liked the ride (just down to the shop, to see if they had curry powder...HA! There's a dream and a half), once I finally got it all going.
I'm going bonkers again. I tried to make dinner, but what was scheduled for tonight can't happen cause we don't have any mushrooms! So now I have to freestyle. This is mucho annoying cause we did a huge off-island run yesterday for groceries, and should have gotten enough for 2 weeks. I feel like banging my head against the table.
Maybe being isolated in Maine is a bad idea, for me, for now. I don't want to whine, but I'm just not getting anything done. The house is a mess, and you don't want to see my desk. I finally got my iSight, but the person I want to talk to is never awake for me to use it. Head, meet table. Bang bang bang.
