Here we go again...

I started back to work this week.  Don't get me wrong, I don't mind working, some days I even like it.  What don't I like about working?  My house seems to fall apart.  The laundry is always behind, I usually leave in the morning with dishes in the sink and there are "to do" piles EVERYWHERE!  There just aren't enough hours in the day to do everything that needs to be done (or that I want to do).  And the kids will start back to school soon, so we will add on homework and after school activities.  Geez I sound whiny huh? 

Oh well, if your a "stay at home" or "work from home" mom enjoy the few precious hours that will be coming your way soon!  And if your a "work outside of home" mom like me...enjoy that your kids will soon be stuck inside a building like you, instead of off doing fun things with their grandma!  *insert evil laugh here* 

The lazy days...

The laundry is piled high in the laundry room, the dishes are piled high in the kitchen sink, the beds are unmade, the kids (and I) are still in our pj's, the house is a total disaster.  But 'dark clouds loom ahead' with a rumble in the distance, there is coffee yet to be drunk, movies yet to be watched and books yet to be read.  I think I just found my agenda for the day.  Ahhhhhhh.....
