freaking tired

I'm tired.

We start at 4 am. Clara has been waking up long before the sun even thinks about rising. And I start with the breakfasts, cleaning, laundry. My own shower before Joy gets out of bed. Then we all eat and get dressed, drop everybody off, I get to work (with a phone call to my mom on the way). Work for the day - maybe a lunch break. Pick everybody up after work. Make dinner, clean it up. Baths, homework. Pajamas. Bottles and reading. Bedtime. Snacks and negotiation. Another bedtime. Check ons. Computer time. More laundry. Dishes. Clean up. Phone time. I'm late getting myself to bed, I'll never get enough sleep to be rested for tomorrow, which is making me feel weepy... and I haven't returned emails or phone calls that I've promised. I am so tired!

A huge big hug to my tired friend! I know how being tired makes you feel like crap so I feel for ya hun. Have you been getting my email replies? Some people haven't so I'm not sure what the problem is with the stupid thing. Love you xxx

Hang in there mama. Tired is the hardest thing. Call in your favors, family and friends. You need to get yourself some rest... zzzzz, and me too. Goodnight.

Aw girl! I feel your pain!!!

I agree though... time to call in some favors and at least try to catch up once a week on your sleep.

Big hugs!

I hope you are getting some sleep right now! :)

THANKS so much you guys. I got bills paid tonight, caught up on laundry and dishes and most my emails, and by tomorrow I might even update my boring blog! :) xoxo.

Life is crazy! I hope it calms down for you soon and that you're able to catch up on those zzzs. I have enough troubles getting all mine and I don't even have kids so I can't imagine what you're going through.

Hang tight, lady!

Don't the days fly by. So many nights I leave the dishes in the sink til the next morning or miss my shower in the morning.

So, look at it this way. You're doing better than me.

Hoping you get some rest soon. Maybe let a little something go...sending you hugs and love!
