Snap, Crackle, Pop…

For three weeks, I was SuperMom. The energy I had was insane and for three weeks I was a productive Diva. Then like all good things, it went away and here I am so tired. Chris was out of town for two days, so putting the kids to bed and all that jazz wore me out. I wasn’t born with a middle ground, sometimes I wish I had one, sometimes I think I would be way less interesting if I did. So I will get some posts out that have been sitting in my head…

Ok, i published this, but I am editing again. Just went to get myself some much deserved coffee. So life is changing a bit. Chris’ job is requiring many more hours of work, so Daddy comes home just as spent as I am. He works after the kid are asleep many nights too. It is clear to me that the Starbright openings are going to be a godsend. I am going to need that break because Chris is more and more unable to provide one.  Not that he doesn’t want to, he is just pooped and needs to recharge too.
It doesn’t seem like him working more would affect me, but our family is a unit that way. So more nights working meaning he isn’t doing dishes at night, helping clean up or fold laundry. He needs a break when he gets home, so that means that I take the kids longer and try to give him space. I only illustrate these thing, because I don’t even think I realized how much his job could affect all of us. So having the kids in school twice a week will give me the breathing room I need to keep things and myself rolling along…

…and I need it! Have I mentioned what a challenge three is proving to be?? I haven’t? Well, read on, dear reader….
