Overwhelmed

First things first.  Happy Belated Mother's Day, ladies!  I hope you all had a wonderful day - or part of a day.

Now back to the subject.
So completely overwhelmed!  I haven't even had a minute to write a post in nearly two weeks.  Some days you think you have everything under control - like you are a master.  Like you were meant to be a career mom. Then most other days..not so much. 

Work has been out of control the last two week.  So busy that the days flew by in a whirl and I worried how I was going to get everything done.  Then I get home and the kids are out of control, don't listen to a word I say and complain about what food I manage to get on their dinner plates.  They make a mess of the growing pile of baskets of clean clothes (at least they are clean) that I haven't had time to put away because they can't find a clean pair of pajamas. Then once the kids are asleep, I have to make lunches, clean the kitchen and collapse in bed around 11 pm absolutely exhausted.  You are probably wondering....my husband contributes a little.  But we won't go there.

  Then the weekend.  T-Ball game, dance class, a visit from friends, grocery shopping, my nieces 3 1/2 hour dance recital (thank god it was an excellent show - my daughter and I both really enjoyed it).  Holy hell!  I'm exhausted.  Thank god for the visit from friends.  At least I got the family room vacuumed  the kitchen and stairs swept and the kitchen floor mopped (the kitchen floor was GROSS!). 

Overwhelmed - seems to be the story of my life for now.  I have to go fold some more laundry now.
