Exhausted

16.23

The girls are upstairs playing, and what I should be doing is giving them a bath. Or, playing with them, but i'm utterly exhausted.

Work was a typical day, as typical as it can be when traveling between two jobs. Thankfully, my afternoon speech kiddo was rescheduled for tomorrow, and I look forward to the evenings where I have nothing extra after school. It means I can spend time with the girls. But honestly, when we get home on those days, I just crash. I'm trying so hard to get into a routine, and we have good weeks and bad weeks. I think the last two weeks have been bad. (and it's only Tuesday)

I look at my 'to-do' list and it just overwhelms me.

Vacuum the floors, do the laundry, make the beds, dust the furniture, pick up toys, cook dinner, finish up projects at work, start projects at home. Where is all the time in the day?

As I was looking forward to my "off" night, I remembered that the girls and I needed to run to the grocery store. So, there went my "off" night. G pitched a fit, b/c she didn't get the car buggy, then she wanted a cookie. I asked her to stop asking of the cookie, and if she was a good listener, she could have the cookie at the end of our trip. However, she missed the "please stop asking for the cookie" part. Needless to say, she did not receive her cookie. Which, made her pitch a fit the entire drive home. She was sent to her room for crying and arguing in the car.

Thankfully, after her time-out, she cleaned her room, ate a good dinner (pb & j) and went upstairs to read and play.

MC, on the other hand, was great at the store, and had a not so fun time once we got home.

It's either one or the other.

I'm ready for bedtime tonight. I'm ready for DJ to get home. I plan on retreating to my sewing space and working on bows and projects. I have several to ship and several to make, and honestly, I feel like crashing on the sofa, and not getting up until tomorrow. When I get to do it all over again. And, while my list continues to grow because I put things off tonight.

So, mothers, how do you get through your days? What helps you feel as if you are accomplishing something without spinning in circles?

Right now, I feel as if a huge glass of wine will be the only thing that will help :)
