I haven't posted in a few days, and I thought it was about time. The kids have been killing me this week. One whines, the other one fights, another's asthma is acting up, they're yelling at the 5 year old across the street and let's not forget the ER visit this week. And school just started back on Tuesday.
Not to mention science fair projects and English projects due - oh yeah, mom such and such is due tomorrow. Aaahhh! I'm losing my mind.
Then to top it off, Ben and I have been at each other's throats. What a way to ring in the new year. The good news is Ben and I have made up, but the kids were threatened with their lives this afternoon on a boys-only trip to Best Buy. Ah, the peace and quiet for Mom.
We began taking down the Christmas decorations (I know, finally) today. The tree is all wrapped up. But the little doo-dads are still milling about. And somehow the corner in the garage carved out especially for the Christmas boxes has disappeared. But the garage is Ben's domain and his responsibility to fit all this stuff back in there. Now I have a blank wall again - in the pond room. Just ask me about that if you don't know what I'm talking about.
Happy New Year to all. I hope ours gets better. I don't think it can get much worse. Did I mention my mother-in-law fell and needed stitches?? Yep, welcome 2009.
