9:47 AM

Today is already one big crappy day. I'm exhausted, the kids are all whiny, I have tons of school to do with Molly and a sh*t load of work to do around here. Most importantly is laundry (horrible, horrible stuff) but then again maybe it's vacuuming up the hundreds of cheerios that are currently scattered all over the first floor. Tomorrow is a hugely busy day (as are all Wednesday) in which I won't be able to get anything done but running around, so it all HAS to get done today. I have lots of people coming for dinner as well, which means making food. Fortunately there are a few easy things I can do. Gag. I just want to go back to bed.

Chores? Schmores!

Instead of doing the MOUND of laundry that I have sitting here next to me, I went to my sisters today. We hung out, went out to lunch and took the kids to the park. I didn't get home until 3 and am exhausted! The kids are really wiped too, which means lots of fighting.
I have no idea what we're having for dinner tonight. I don't think we have a lot of leftovers. I suppose I could go see what we have. I know I got a few ingredients to make things. I'm so tired!
Tomorrow is the only free day I have the rest of the week. Wednesday is super busy with therapy and dance and nutritionist appt.. Thursday a friend of mine is coming over. Friday we're going to a field trip for Molly's school. Friday night is game night. Saturday is... something, I don't remember what and then I have only one week to get ready to go to Granny's! I hate time crunches. I used to do well under pressure, but now I just get bitchy.

Sunday Morning

No, we're not exactly being pagans again. Our church was effectively canceled because my pastor's son is becoming head pastor of our sister church, so every one's down there. But it's a bit too far for us with the kids, so we're staying home.
Bob is sleeping. I wish I were. I was up a lot last night. Lorelei was up for over an hour and as soon as I got her back to sleep, Liam woke up and then again and hour or two later. Couple that with not getting to bed until after midnight and I didn't get very much sleep at all.
My kids are being good this morning, though, so that's nice. I haven't had to do much with any of them. The girls have been in the basement all morning and Liam rolled around in the living room for a while before I brought him down here (when Lorelei fell off the horse). Now they're all playing contentedly in the family room. I like listening to my kids when they're happy.
We need to make a Costco run today - we're either out or almost out of a bunch of stuff we normally get from there. Other than that, I think we're good on errands. We went out yesterday (with the crankiest kids ever). I got a new purse! :) I'm very happy with it. It still holds a decent amount of stuff without getting heavy. And I got the cutest little wallet type thing for when it's just me and I don't need anything else. I love it!
I really need to do laundry today, but I'll be lucky if I get it all down here and sorted, I'm sure. I simply have to go back to bed when Bob gets up. It's all I can do to keep my eyes open and not fall asleep sitting here.
I haven't eaten anything yet today. I don't really know what I want. I'm getting pretty tired of eggs. There are those "pancakes" I made, but they really don't taste very good, despite looking good. There are definitely some things about this diet that I really don't like.
I think Liam is going to be napping soon, so maybe I can sleep on the sofa after that.
Oh, and I got my hair cut short yesterday and it's cute. And less maintenance. Not that it was a lot before. I still don't like my face, but there's not much I can do about that!
