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....

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)
