The Navy is killing my business....

Well maybe not killing it but definitely putting a slight damper on things for the moment. All week I have been working hard on trying to promote, get my name out into the world, tweek and perfect my etsy shop.
Work has came to a halt the past 2 days. Besides the weather being not so nice out and no beach trips to write the messages, Andy (my hubby) has been either at work, talking about work, talking to work, napping and sleeping.
I finally get on the computer to get some business thing accomplished this evening, of course the minute i open the laptop  the kids are in my face asking for drinks, snacks and just wanting my attention. I look over at my husband to give him the wifey nasty look so he gets the hint.....what is he doing oh yes napping once again! So of course, I throw a small hissy fit, get up accidentally running my leg into his leg asleep on the couch. He doesn't move. I get snacks drinks close the computer finish up Valentine card for classes, find jammies for the kids, brush teeth and he finally moves. He says "oh I will put them to bed"
Where is he now you may ask. Well he is on the bottom bed in the bunk bed sleeping, where am I sitting on the computer blogging with kids coming out to see me every once in a while, which I send back to bed only to have them reappear 5 minutes later.
Will the Navy drive me crazy with working my husbands butt off so hard, he cant keep his open for longer then 2 hours after being home....no I will win this battle not sure how and when but I will. Let it be the day he retires and I can give a a speech about all of the hard times we struggled through as a family.
What will my poor etsy shop do without my attention I need to be giving it at this important time of starting up?  It will strive and people will find me with out renewing items, posting new items and spending time promoting.
I guess I will end this with Go Navy attitude and go give my kiddos some nighty night cuddles.
