the life of mom
Ok so it is 11:17 as I start writing this.
I am posting here instead of one of the other blogs because they require a little more thought than just complaining lol.
The complaint for this moment is I want to work. But I don’t have time because of my other obligations.
My daughter gets done school at 12pm in just about 30minutes I have to leave to go get her, and then the house will be crazy again.
Kids will need to be fed again, (didn’t I just feed these people!) She has to get changed, then homework, all of this while my almost 3 yr old is running his toy cars all over the desk and up and down my arms and legs. Sometimes I really feel more like a zoo keeper not so much like a mom.
Mornings aren’t much different either!
The sink full of dishes that I was hoping to disappear are still there, no matter how hard I wished them clean I am going to have to actually stand there and wash them myself by hand. (Until I can afford a maid that is hehe) I have dinner to make and a kitchen to clean. And children to clean teach and chase. If by some miracle I can get something on that list accomplished before the hubby comes home I may have about 1hr max to start to "work" before he walks in and kicks me off the computer so he can "relax" by freaking out over dying in a video game.
Then everyone needs to be fed yet again (waited on like a diner is more like it!)
And then kids need to be bathed, the cat needs to eat, toys cleaned up (yeah in a perfect world) stories need to be read, teeth must be brushed and after 500 drinks, hugs and questions later the kids are finally asleep... now I am so tired all I can think about is a shower and a nap which is actually bed cause its late and I have to do it all over again the following day.
On the rare occasion that I am not already running on a massive sleep deprivation I can stay up and actually be able to concentrate on work for a few hours during the only sane part of my day!(when the kids are asleep!)
And god forbid if for some reason there are still toys all over and dishes in the sink I get to be told how I have an easy job and do nothing all day everyday! Some reason is that I actually want to get something else accomplished that doesn’t involve cleaning yelling or begging)
CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!! PLEASE!
