A little refreshed

April 12th, 2010

Today I just wanted to crawl in a hole and sleep for an entire day. I wanted so badly to sleep in. I’ve just been dying to do that for a long time. And after taking the girls to breakfast, in which Ella nearly gave Eva a concussion, then to church, I kinda did do that. You know, as much as you can do that with two kids.

It’s a lot schlepping around two kids all the time by yourself. And doing the nightly feedings and always getting up with them in the mornings. It’s hard being the mom, that’s for sure.

Anyway, I was very close to getting in my car and getting some retail therapy, but I kept telling myself, BE LAZY. DON’T CLEAN. DON’T RUN AROUND DOING ERRANDS. And now I’m so glad. I feel a little refreshed. I’m even kinda looking forward to the week ahead. Maybe the park tomorrow. And maybe I’ll get up the nerve to go to one of the group exercise classes my gym offers. And one night we have a sitter for a few hours and we’re going for sushi.

But I guess I’ll have to keep dreaming about sleeping in. I totally get why people have baby nurses.
