• Mommy Overload: Daily Insanity Of Being A Mom

    From LifeBuzz is this really cute post about what runs through a moms head over the course of a day.  From “Is that a cheeto on the floor? How long has that been there? I haven’t even had cheetos in at least a year…”  To “How did that pacifier get all the way up there on the bookshelf?” – I was laughing throughout this stream of consciousness post from a mom you can probably relate to.  The sad thing is… I have thoughts like these all day long!

    Here's a snippet from the post:

    How did that pacifier get all the way up there on the bookshelf? One of the kids must have thrown it up there. Hmmmm… maybe that’s where all the others went… I have to remember to buy more pacifiers. I gotta write this down… Where’s my notepad? Where’s my purse? Did I leave in the car? I thought I brought it inside.

    They say time flies and your kids grow up so fast, but how come it only feels like time is flying when you’re in bed. I don’t even think I’ve had a real nights sleep since I was in high school. Gosh that feels like forever ago. That was when I was skinny. I’ll never lose this baby fat. I want to wear skinny jeans. Will they even be in style still after I lose this weight? Maybe I should go on a diet. I really want to be like those women who go back to their pre-pregnancy size overnight. Why can’t that happen to me? I like food too much that’s why… speaking of which, I’m starving. I wish we had some Cheetos now, or even Doritos. No, I can’t eat that junk.

    We should all have some fruit. Yes grapes. And these are good too, they’re organic. I paid 4 dollars more for these. I can’t even tell the difference. Should I even wash them because can’t tap water be bad? Won’t that defeat the purpose of buying organic? Maybe I should wash them with spring water. I should clean out this fridge too. It’s been so long. I can’t even tell what that used to be… I throw away so much tupperware. What should I make for dinner? I feel like I make the same things over and over. Oh no… who just pulled up? I don’t want any visitors… I look like a wreck. I am a wreck. I haven’t even brushed my hair or my teeth. And I have my shirt on backwards. Oh good… it’s the neighbors friend. Wait… did they get a new car? I wonder if that’s their car. Damn that’s nice, I’ve always dreamed of driving a sports car. A red convertible. I would look so good in too. Anything is better than a mini-van that smells like crayons and spilled milk. It’ll be years before I’ll ever get a two door car. By the time the kids grow up, we probably won’t even have cars. We’ll just transport. That reminds me I have to get gas. I’m on E.I have to remember that. I definitely don’t want to be stuck on the side of the road with the kids. I need to renew my AAA. Gosh, I forgot about that.

    I also have to schedule a doctor’s appointment. I wish he could just come here. Why don’t they make house calls like you see them do in old TV shows? That would be so awesome, but then I’d have to clean before he came. What if it were an emergency? I wouldn’t have time to clean… I could just hide everything in the laundry baskets and spill some Pine Sol. That always makes a house smell clean to me.

    Ugh! I told them about leaving their Legos around in my room… that hurt! I’m just gonna throw this one away… no one will ever know… Oh Jeez. What are they arguing about now? An old stuffed animal with a missing eye. I should throw that away too. I should probably burn it actually. That thing’s been saturated in saliva and snot and God only knows what else. That thing is a biohazard.

    Did the baby even wake up last night? I can’t even remember. Oh that’s right… she did. It was 3:33 am. How can I forget? I can’t wait until she sleeps through the night. My life will be so different. I can’t even imagine sleeping straight through. Why are the kids being so quiet? Oh no… they’re up to something. I gotta go look. If only I could just sleep…
