I have to admit, vent, beg, & update

OH boy have I been stressed out lately. I have come to terms with the fact that I have fallen off the WLS wagon! I need to get back to basics and quit cheating! It's hard because I am not gaining weight from cheating but in fact still slowly losing. I just want to get a grip on things asap because some daysoon I will be able to gain weight and I do not want to fail at this! I have created a profile at mycaloriecounter.com and I think this tool will help me be responsible for what I put in my mouth! I still have 40 lbs to lose and I would love to get there someday!On another note I have been getting frustrated with my husband. He has not lifted one finger around the house in a week! I cleaned the house spotless last Thursday and kept on top of it up until probably Monday. On Monday night I had cleaned the kitchen after dinner. My husband took our plates to the kitchen after dinner and didn't do anything with them but put them on the counter and that's where they sat. I very nicely and calmly asked him why he couldn't rinse them off and put them in the sink? Especially when he knows how hard I had been working to keep the house clean. His response was "You have been waaay too sensitive about the house ever since you cleaned it!" So needless to say I quit cleaning it period. He is a stay at home dad and he should be able to do something around the house when he is home. The problem is when he is home every available minute he gets away from Annie (if she is napping or content in her swing etc...) he gets on the phone to start booking for his bands tour this summer so house work goes out the window. Then on Monday and Wednesday nights he goes to the studio as soon as I walk in the door. I am going 4hrs up north alone w/ Annie to celebrate Easter w/ Matt's family because Matt has band stuff this weekend. I had to take a vacation day yesterday because Matt was out of town for a show. He got home at 4am so I know NOTHING is going to get done around the house today because he will be too tired. He is going to the studio tonight to practice so I will have to clean the house if I want it done. I am so close to snapping! I don't know what I have gotten myself into. This is the life of a rock stars wife but it wouldn't be so bad if he would help when he is home but when he is home he just wants to relax because the band is a lot of work! I dunno....
Annie is growing like a weed! She is 15.6 pounds and 24in long. She is 3 mo old and wearing 3-6mo and 6mo clothes. She is in size 2-3 diapers. She is sleeping pretty well for us. Last night she went to bed at 9:45pm and I woke her up to top her off at midnight and then she woke up to eat at 4:30am and I fed her before I left for work at 7am. She went back to bed for dad soon after that for another couple hours. She is a great baby at home but is pretty fussy away from home. I don't know what that's all about. If any of you have any advice on that fill me in!
I am doing the "Walk For MS" on 5/2/2010. It is a 6 mile walk. I would appreciate any pledges! My grandmother has lived with MS since I was a baby and my cousins girlfriend, Lindsey was just diagnosed and she is only 26 years old! I am trying to do all I can to support this cause so any little bit helps! You can pledge at this link:
