Has is really been 5 months!?!

I can't believe it has been five months since I blogged. I read all the good ones when I get a chance but never seem to have more than 5 minutes to write on my own. Life is just not the same as it was. And let me just say that working full time and being a mother/wife full time is just too much. I may be whining just a bit but let me just say this working business is for the birds!! Kudos to those of you who do it and do it well. I can't seem to keep anything straight! I have missed appointments, not made it to the grocery, forgot to send p.e. clothes with the girls on the appropriate days (and let me tell you the kids don't let me forget about that one anymore!!) I just can't do it and don't care to at all.
All my life I only wanted to be a mom. I never wanted for much else. I wanted to get married and have kids. Stay home with my babies and be the mom who is always there for them.
It is just too much to handle doing it ALL. And I can't believe I left the dishes to sit and blog but I needed some blog time and hey, the kids are in bed, why shouldn't I take a minute!!?!?

Before I started working I got things done. I don't have the cleanest house in the world and I can't claim that I never forgot to do something but all was good in my little world. Now my house has fallen apart and things are piling up. I don't know how women do it but I can justify getting someone to clean the house and take out the laundry and even hire someone for the lawn.....it is just too much for any one to handle!

Back to reality, the dishes are waiting, laundry needs folding, I need to find clothes to wear tomorrow, pack lunches, feed the dog, start packing for a long awaited trip.....the list goes on and on. But I will take the time to at least read what other lovely people have written and how their lives are going.
