What makes you grumpy?

What tends to make me grumpy is when I wake up in the morning to my daughter and husband telling me they want something. My daughter usually wakes up and the first thing she says to me is I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, I want to watch cartoons. And my husband waiting till the last second to get ready for work. I'm running around cleaning up the house from the night before, picking up laundry in every room of the house, putting all the dishes in the sink, picking up my duaghters toys she left in the middle of the floor before I trip on it and, putting away all my husbands tools that he had left out before going to bed. I'm still waiting for the day that they let me sleep in, and have my breakfast ready for me when I wake up, hand me the remote while they clean the house while I relax to the mindless tv show of my choice.

I tend to get rather grumpy when I don't end up getting a good nights rest. Especially if I am woken up by someone who is being very loud outside of the room. Whether that be clashing pots together, slamming things, opening the door loudly, etc.. I think I get grumpy because of the fact that.. I just find it down right rude to make a lot of noise when someone is sleeping. I also find I get grumpy when company just comes on over without calling first. Where they just show up when I am in the middle of something.. Or am not expecting company on that particular day & just would much rather prefer to be alone.. I just find it bad manners just to show up at someone's home without calling in advance to let them know.. Or waiting until they invite you over for dinner or to visit. I just feel when I invite someone I have more time to prepare for when they are about to come over.. Where I can clean, or make a lunch so we can sit down together for a bite to eat. But I just think I get angry because these people who just show out of no where.. Say they don't like this done to them, but yet they do it to me. It's rather frustrating for me quite honestly when this ends up happening. I also get rather grumpy when I have to pick up after someone on a regular basis. For example if someone just leaves there shoes in the way & I end up tripping over them. And then I have to put them away because someone couldn't do it themselves. I get grumpy because I don't feel I am someone's personal maid & I do believe if you had used something.. And are finished using the item.. That you should be willing to put it away so others won't have to do it for you.. I also tend to get rather grumpy when I had taken the time out to clean something. Or even organize something. And someone goes ahead & just makes it all messy all over again shortly after. I get frustrated first off, which leads to me getting grumpy because it's quite discouraging.. But also upsetting when you had taken hours on end out of your schedule to clean or organize something & the next thing you know it's grumpy all over again.. I feel like it's a never ending battle to get things just the way you want them without people messing it up on you when you least expect it. When I am sick with the flu or I am having my monthly & I am just not feeling all to well. I tend to get grumpy because I try to find ways to make myself feel better but yet I can't find a solution. I will try all in my power to find things to make my stomach from aching, or I will try to stop my throat from aching.. But nothing works unless I make myself head off to bed to get a good nights rest. Sometimes I find the only thing to do is just to go to bed.. And yet sometimes that doesn't work.. Being sick without a solution I believe would make anyone grumpy. As you feel so exhausted & like you have no energy to do anything. In conclusion.. I find there are a number of different things that make me grumpy a large majority of the time. When I am grumpy I try to warn people so I won't end up lashing out at them.. But I think I get grumpy when it comes to a lot of the things I had listed.. Because a lot of the things can be prevented in advance in my opinion.. Especially if people we're more considerate of the people around them. I try to find ways when I am grumpy though to have a much more positive attitude.. Or at least a few different ways to uplift my spirits but they don't always work! Well I guess I am only human & we tend to all get grumpy sometimes! . . Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

The heat makes me grumpy. When I walk out of my house to go to work and my makeup starts running down my face before I can get out to the car and turn on the a/c, I start my day very grumpy. Also, if I didn't sleep well the night before, I can start my day feeling grumpy. Other than that, I'm usually not grumpy. In case you didn't guess, I live in South Florida where the humidity is usually very high.
