The weight of the world

Is always on moms shoulders it seems. I've complained about it before but well when is that ever enough? I have to keep complaining right!

I work. No I don't have a full time and part time job.... But when I work I work hard and when I get home, I seldom have time to relax.

Let's take today for example: got up helped get kids around. While Tim took them to school I got ready for work fed the dogs and picked up the trail of things left behind by the kids...

Went to work. Did all my work duties there, after work I had to run to Walmart and get a backpack and various other school supply they still need. Once I am finished at the store it's time to pick up a kid from school. I wait in a long ass line wishing I had peed at the store. Get kid go home.

Once home I Let the dogs out make sure the kids get a snack get things for dinner set out, unload dishes and reload dishwasher oh and I clean the cat box too.

Start getting the chicken ready and realize I forgot a purple binder. Kid calls done with practice. Get her run by 2 different stores one for a binder and one for a rice cooker so I don't burn anymore rice.

Get home again, finally. Prepare dinner, and enough to freeze for another night. Start a load of laundry clean some things out of the fridge, sing and drive the kids nuts, simmer chicken bones and meat to make broth. Serve dinner to 2 kids and eat.

Meanwhile eat dinner, get plate made for hub and remaining 2 children. Put more dishes in dishwasher switch over laundry clean countertops table ect.

Dad gets home and without hardly even telling me hello his ass is in bed watching sports center.

Meanwhile i comb through 2 kids hairs to make sure they have not made any friends at school... Then French braid 2 heads. Tuck the wee one in after snack time and tooth brushing... Clean off the counter top and table one more time.... Fill dishwasher to capacity, delay start it for after shower time. Hand wash crock insert and baking pan and one lonely butter knife. Fight with the boy about him being hungry at bed time and not picking up his dirty clothes I've asked him to do since Monday.... Then fight with him about me not starting his laundry at 10 pm.

Tuck in the boy. Shower. Tuck in one girl. Remind her she needs to do her laundry before my day Sunday... Remind oldest child to turn off tv before going to bed.... Lay down , have a bitch fest via blog because I have no friends....

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...
