" Wow what an easy week. How did this happen?" Imagine mentally outlining all the the things you could get done around the house with so few things in your planner. Maybe you could finish that great book you are reading? Maybe you could wash a few delicate items you never seem to get around to washing? Imagine only needing a babysitter once in a week. How nice to not have to bug people for a change.Imagine all the extra time in the gym.......
Ok, SCRATCH all that. It is nice to dream though.......
Reality, well it goes something like this:
Had to reshedule one appt with trainer due to naughty kids.
Got the house all ready and the paperwork for my temporary licensing worker to come and fingerprint MR. M. and I. She no showed.
Bedtime fit over 5 pitsacios (WW3) what gives???
Really clingy baby
Vacuumed all that creek sand out of the car and washed it.
Major fatigue
Scrambling to find 2 babysitters last minute so I could take this child,
to urgent care for a nice cut in her upper lip that is hidden by Ariel. It required a stitch. It took two lovely shots to numb it. It took all my stength to help hold her down and to not give in to her sad cries for me to just hold her. Breaks a mommy's heart.
Got home from urgent care just in time to recieve a call from the school nurse. C-Dog has hurt his knee and it is very swollen he can not walk to well. He chooses to stay at school. Comes home needing lots of pain meds. Poor guy......Phew, no trip to ER!!
Pick Miss M up from coping skills class with a warning not to break that stress ball they gave you.
Here's to the millions of pointless warnings handed out by smart Mom's everywhrere, everday...
Yay for my coping skills, they came in very handy right at that moment!!!
Ever had a bowl of stuff resembling this
sprayed all over your children and your freshly cleaned car?
Drove straight to previous car wash and vacuumed the car and the kids (not kidding) again, only to realize I have fifteen minutes to feed C-dog and get him ready for a Scout outing to the police station.
Little Ceasars you are my friend and always will be!
So I guess my week has not gone like I imagined. Who was I fooling?
I guess that"s why it is good to look for those not so insane moments and hold onto them for dear life.

Hmmm.....maybe you should start imagining majorly crazy days and then be happily surprised when it's not as bad as you'd imagined?
Sorry! But at least we'll have bunko Friday night - yay!!
I am glad to hear that she only needed one stitch. I was imagining worse. Since this week came in like a lion maybe it will end nice and calm. ( we can only hope right!?)
Hope today is better! Love ya!
that is so how life is..
c.r.a.z.y.
Can't wait till I can eat outside again.. go away snow..It's April for heaven's sake.
After reading this, I feel very boring. VERY boring.
Your attitude amazes me! well done :)
Oh I heard all about the fall- poor thing:(
Life with little ones is insane.....but we keep getting assured by the "older" generation in our ward that we will miss it....and then I look at my life and think? REALLY? I will miss THIS? I hope I do....because somedays........:)
