sensory overload

Yesterday started off great with a bike ride and some social time with a friend but it quickly turned moody for me. I think I just got surrounded with too many people and kids in a small space. It was draining to be in a small house with about 20 people and 10 kids (7 of which were under age 3). It probably would have been fine but then we went to our neighbors for a get together and I surrounded myself with about 10-15 different people in not so much space. I was already out of steam and pushed even harder. I was out of talking/social energy  and made it until 12:30 before just needing the comfort of bed. I didn't want to be completely alone though but dear husband didn't get the hints and stayed out til who knows when. So my annoyance from sensory overload, has turned into annoyance at him being exhausted (*hungover??? he won't admit to it) and wasting a beautiful day with him laying on the floor half asleep all day and crabby at me when I try to engage him.  granted, I didn't come up with anything else to do but it feels like it shouldn't always fall on me to come up with things.

As I type this I realize just how annoyed I am. More than I thought I was when I started this entry.
