It's been one of those days, you know the ones where you wake up grumpy, feeling like you could keep sleeping for a year! I drag my very weary & old feeling self out of bed, make beds, get breakfast for 3 hungry little people, 2 of whom have spent the last hour fighting over who's whats-it belongs to who, spend the next half hour cleaning up, packing lunches, begging little people to stop yelling & get dressed, finally have myself a shower & put on something a bit pretty in the hope that it might improve my mood....
Drop one at school, it's preppies day off, pick up a large coffee & head home to enjoy it with toast. I wait till this time because I usually have less interruptions & can actually enjoy at least 5 minutes peace...
Then somehow it gets to be the end of the day and in some kind of delirious state I have managed to do some washing, organise dinner, drop baby to kinder, pick up baby from kinder, pick up the school boy, listen to readers and now everyone's fed again, cleaned & ready for bed. I do know there were flashes of a ninja turtle & a buzz lightyear running about, cubbies being built under the dining table & a competion to build the tallest tower using every cushion & pillow in the house...
Tomorrow I'm going to try to take the time to enjoy those seemingly insignificant moments in between all the chaos that have somehow passed me by today...
So here's to a happy Thursday, and enjoying the simple things.
Doiesn't matter how you feel does it when you have littlies? I Hope tomorrow is a better day.
ReplyDeleteSounds like my day yesterday. Got some things done but was a blur of the prep and the boy fighting all day..... and today which I am supposed to have to myself to work is being shared with the sick prep girl.
ReplyDeleteOh cubby houses, they make them everywhere don't they?? Have fun with the little battles, love Posie
