Chronic Mommy

So I have come to realize, well, I would have to say admit, moms don't have just long days, they have chronic days-NEVER ENDING. My life right now is pretty much a blur. With a 2 year old, a 6 month old, and a husband, I feel like I never stop. Take today for example- Tomorrow doesn't start til 6:00 AM for me, because I'm still going until then. Last night I didn't go to sleep until 3:00 AM. Call it insomnia, I call it "mommy brain". My mind keeps going and going like the energizer bunny.
"Do we have enough diapers to last until next payday? Does Hubby have clean work clothes? Did I take the garbage cans out?"

Then I hear a cry of "MAMA!!! WHaaaaaa" Yes. Big Brother is awake. So I get him out of bed, we watch a little bit of Yo Gabba Gabba....yay. Just what I need. (yes, that is sarcasam)
Put Big Brother back in bed.

What time is it? Who frickin cares. I have no time schedule really.Same with days, they are all the same.
I awaken to my hubby jumping out of bed, like the house is on fire. He states "OH! I just love it when the alarm doesn't go off! ughhhhhhhh I'm gonna be late for work. Did you know what time it was???"

-Really another task for me? And yes, I stay awake 24/7. I was just laying here in bed planning today and  to make sure you make it to work on time, and just in case a kid poops, and to help you find socks.

I close my eyes, pretending to be asleep, thinking "You are a big boy. You can do it." In as much of a loving way as possible. Ahhh peace and quite.

Brothers both awake.

Feeding kids, changing kids, doing laundry, dishes, cleaning.

Hubby comes home. It looks like a tornado went through our house. And the hubby says "What did you do all day?" I roll my eyes.

Make dinner, feed children-yes all 3 :) change them, get them ready for bed. Put older brother to bed.

Get a BBM from a friend. Want to get out of the house, get a bite to eat?"

Tell hubby, I'm leaving, be back in a bit. Run out of the house like a bomb is just about to explode.

Get a text during dinner from hubby. " I didn't know it took this long to eat"

Go home.

Both brothers are awake.

Put brothers back to bed.

Pick up toys, start dishwasher, etc etc etc...........

Get online to blog.... now it's just about 2:00 AM......

Tomorrow, another round. I'm down and out, can't throw in the towel.....
