Another day in this thing called life...

Wow, it is already Thanksgiving tomorrow! This month has just flown by. So many things going on, working, day care, packing up the diaper bag, packing up the pump bag, loading the car, bundling E up (since it's gotten colder out), transfering bases, keeping track of who has/who needs the base... how does any mom stay sane? I am loosing my mind. I'm not kidding. I am so over tired, exhausted, run down and pooped out (can we say it in any other way?) It is so bad that the other night I washed my face, got ready for bed and spent 10 minutes searching for my glasses... had I left them in the bathroom? on the nightstand? on the coffee table? in the kitchen? I had no idea where they were. Then I realized the were ON MY NOSE! Not even on my head, but on my NOSE!!! How ridiculous. Crazy.


E and I both have a cold again... which sucks. That probably doesn't help with the tiredness either. I hear there is some nasty flu going around... hope that stays away from us!


Work has been a challenge lately. So many more people work there now, it is much more stressful and other people there seem to be so on edge and belittling sometimes that is SO hard to be there some days. But, gotta keep the $$ coming in, so no choice there. I realized today that my day care lady earns more $$ per day with 2 children than I do at my job (after I take out the $25 I pay her each day). I could stay home with E and have 2 other kids and probably make more $$. That is Sooooooooooooo tempting... then I could sorta be the stay at home mom I'd love to be!


We're thinking about putting the house up for sale. We'll see how that goes though, kind of a bad time of year... plus the gossip around here would be hell to deal with... plus G just got on the city council and he'd kind of excited about that... so who knows?!


Ok, gonna pack some more stuff up for the Salvation Army... cleaning house feels SO DANG GOOD. I'm in the mood to get rid of stuff. Greg's thrilled :)


Take care ya'll and have a wonderful Turkey day!! Gobble 'til you wobble! Then snooze :)

Things will get better. Just have to tough it out. So where would you be moving to then? G got on the city council? Feels like I havent heard from you in a while. Life is busy for everyone this time of year. Remember, if you guys need anything, dont be afraid to ask. You guys have enough friends and family that care about you, so TAKE ADVANTAGE of it!
