Last night we stayed up until after midnight working on the latest project here at the house. Let's just say that 6:30 came way to quickly for me this morning and I did not want to get out of bed...matter of fact I layed there for a good 15 minutes just contemplating my choices....but I decided I would get up and drive to Turbo Kick in hopes that it would wake me up. Well it woke me up for sure but it did not take the tired away so on my way home from the gym I stopped at the local corner store and bought what they title "EXTREME CAFFEINE LATTE"....that's no joke and that is certainly the kind of day I am having! So as I sit here ingesting copious amounts of caffeine I am pondering all the things that need to get done today:
1. I need to take a shower...I just came from Turbo Kick...enough said!!
2. I need to bathe my kids...we skipped it last night due to "the project" and if it is not done soon I am sure to start getting looks and may become "that mother" so this is a must.
3. I need to clean my car out...this is another must due to the fact that we are literally running out of room to sit in there due to the amount of junk that has piled up.
4. I have to plan and get organized for my MOPS meeting tomorrow...or I suppose I could just show up and wing it...that probably isn't the best idea I ever had :-)
5. There is ALWAYS and I repeat ALWAYS cleaning and laundry to do.
6. I have to gather things and get ready for our Mission Friends swim party at church tonight.
I am sure there are other things that I can't think of right now...did I mention I am tired. As a mom you are required to keep going and going and going much like the energizer bunny...wouldn't it just be easier if we ran on batteries...that way when they get low you just toss them in the trash and put brand new fully charged ones in their place. Well since we don't I am sure hoping that this extreme caffeine latte does it's job other wise the only thing I may accomplish today is an extreme nap.
In 2009 I traded meetings and lunch breaks for potty training and play dates when I quit my full time job to be a full time mom to my independent and very "spirited" five year old and my incredibly curious at times mischievous two year old. Every day is something new...this is my life and all that it entails.
