Seems that the almighty has a really warped sense of humor. I’m on two different antibiotics, found out that I have high cholesterol and two deadlines looking at me to get the work done. By 8pm at night, I’m exhausted. But during the day I’m busy with life… kids, food, housework, doctor appointments… I just can’t seem to do the late nights anymore. Maybe I should give it all up to start postcard printing with ‘family pictures’ included. I’m getting pretty good at putting pictures on paper! Then I would be making money and not mind all the insanity of family life with deadlines. Wish me luck…

I’m thinking we need to get more term life insurance on me. I can’t believe what has been going on in my life. Between my youngest being sick for almost 3 weeks. Which means I don’t get any sleep… to dealing with the oldest who feels left out and doesn’t notice the extra attention I have been giving him… to the whole housework issue. When I am tired, it is close to impossible to function on all levels. Home schooling, vision therapy, insurance discussions, money issues, children issues, doctor visits, shots, school medical records, did I mention housework?, finding time for friends. I think you get the idea. I need a long walk in the woods with no kids. Just nature and me. Don’t get me wrong, I love my children and my husband… I just never realized how much I needed some time to myself. I was getting up before 6am to go out bike riding until I started getting only 1 to 2 hours of sleep at night. Now I haven’t even had that ability. Sleep is a necessity if I’m not to go completely nuts with two kids all day long and a list of responsibilities that make me feel inadequate with sleep. I don’t know how most mothers cope.
What in the world did I do to get this back at me? I know God has an odd sense of humor, but somehow I’m just not seeing it this time. Maybe in a week or two I’ll see some humor in all of this. Certainly need that upswing soon!

Where Did The Week Go?
Two deadlines, yellow snot, backache, playdate and… life just doesn’t stop for me. New friends for my oldest and youngest to play with today. If I can just get my stuff together. I’m going to have to find the best anti wrinkle cream to start using so I don’t look so much older than the other moms. I want to have playdates for my boys, but geeze I feel so old sometimes when we do that. And I find it hard to talk about things we have in common besides children. Maybe this mom loves math. I might have a chance. Maybe. Last one was a scientist. Hope for this one right?
Read this and felt it was very appropriate:
A business man got on an elevator.
When he entered, there was a blonde already inside who greeted him with a bright, “T-G-I-F.”
He smiled at her and replied, “S-H-I-T.”
She looked puzzled and repeated, “T-G-I-F,” more slowly.
He again answered, “S-H-I-T.”
The blonde was trying to keep it friendly, so she smiled her biggest smile, and said as sweetly as possibly, “T-G-I-F.”
The man smiled back to her and said once again, “S-H-I-T.”
The exasperated blonde finally decided to explain.
“‘T-G-I-F’ means ‘Thank Goodness It’s Friday.’ Get it, duuhhh?”
The man answered, “‘S-H-I-T’ means ‘Sorry, Honey, It’s Thursday’ — duuhhh”
Busy week… not one evening free… wish me luck!
