Feelin unappreciated

Tonight I cleaned the kitchen, thats not odd. But I started cleaning it at about 1:30 in the morning. Its 2:25am now I just got done. I was in the middle of scrubbing the stove when I realized how much I'v been doing lately and not getting appreciated for it. No doubt when you do something for a man he thinks a magic fairy poofed everything nice. I'm sure when my husband wakes up in the morning and sees the kitchen hes going to scratch his head and just think "Oh looks good." Theres even a teeny tiny possability that before he leaves for work he will tell me it looks good. Who knows.
Another thing I thought of was at work. Theres a pregnaunt woman I work with who like me, basicaly has no one around to help her. I found out that shes not all prepared to have her baby so I thought it would be nice to get her some baby clothes, diapers, some of those baby suckie thingies, binkies?? Also so blankets. It cost me $60. Now some people would think $60 isn't much but in my case its alot of money. I barely know her but thought it would be a nice thing to do. Before I could give her the stuff she went on maternity leave. I ran into her a day later and told her that I had some stuff for her to have. She told me she was going to be in 3 days later to pick them up. She never showed up. Its been a few weeks now and she still hasn't called or showed up. I feel kinda taken. For someone that complains alot that there is no one out there to help she doesn't take advantage of those willing. I can easily take everything back but I'm reluctant to.
My husband told me I was too nice. I think hes right, but there are too many rude and stuck up people already. They don't need another. The last nice thing that I can recall any one doing something nice for me was on Valentines Day. But that was a required thing, especially for a husband. For once I would like someone to do something nice for me out of the blue. Say "Thank you Lilly that looks nice, or thanks for your help." I hope what I'm saying makes sense or I'm at least getting my point across. I have all the answers in my head but can't release them correctly on the computer. If I had a friend here maybe things would be different, I would have someone to talk to face to face.

It so happens I ran into this article and thought of you, (even though we never met face to face). Sorry it's off-topic:

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — In the 1970s, there used to be about 1,300 beluga whales in Cook Inlet, delighting locals and tourists alike. Last year, the number was estimated at just 278.

Why their numbers are dwindling has scientists puzzled -- and scared. The National Marine Fisheries Service is embarking on a status review to determine if the belugas need the protection of the federal Endangered Species Act.

A listing was rejected in 2000 because then it was believed that overharvesting was to blame. Seven years of strict limits on hunting have proved that theory wrong, said Lloyd Lowry, a professor of marine mammals with the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

"There is something else going on," he said Monday.

The status review will look at possible reasons for the decline. That includes changes in habitat, such as noise from shipping, recreational boating and pile driving. The noise could be interfering with the whales' ability to locate each other and find food.
