Venting, Part 1

It's been a bad day. I have lots of them. By reading this blog, you have probably thought we have the perfect family, perfect kids, perfect home.

Yeah, right.

After having no rest after a terrible storm, which brought 3 children to our bed, I am tired. No rest equals bad day, no matter what.

I just got reprimanded. Someone came to my door to let me know my 3 boys were playing in a pipe in the construction zone. How embarrassing.

Also, I am on a committee for school to plan an event, an event that sucks. And if you know me and my penchant for event planning, I don't accept status quo. I need the best. This school just settles, and is reactive not pro-active. I can't stand it.

My little one didn't want to take a nap this afternoon. I need my down time every afternoon. It just makes me more crabby! These boys don't listen to me. Ugghh!! Dave says I'm too lenient on them, too many warnings. I say, with so battles to pick in a day, which ones are the most important?

My house is a mess, truly a mess. And it is so depressing, all these white walls.

I haven't showered in 2 1/2 days. I think I have been wearing this t-shirt and shorts for most of that time, including to bed.

One of my girlfriends just e-mailed and mentioned my blog and how envious she is of me. Ha!

Right now, in my life, I am just a mom and a wife. And I'm not too good at either one of them.


Guess what I just figured out? I forgot to take my happy pills this morning. I'm an idiot.
