What to do?

THIS IS A CRANKY POST... MORE FOR ME JUST TO WRITE.
I AM IN "A MOOD"

Do you ever feel overwhelmed, like there is so much to do, that you don't know where to start?

I do.

I feel like I have so many responsabilities. One day a couple of weeks ago, I got upset in class because I knew my kids were at home with long, nasty fingernails. I usually clip them on Sunday - anal, I know *but when you are a stay at home mom what else is there to think about* - anyways, I knew I was behind.

And it drives me nuts.

Add that to the pile of bathtimes, laundry, a dirty kitchen, a ton on snow, bills that need to be paid, well.... See, I feel overwhelmed.

More, you say? Well, I have more.
  • Science fair projects for the kids,
  • I HAVE A MIDTERM ON WEDNESDAY!
  • I work full time
  • A cranky teenager with a dramatic girlfriend
  • Did I mention that I work full time where I go to church? Well, that means when I go to church, I am kinda at work again.
  • Dirty sheets that need washing, no milk in the fridge - should we go organic? -
  • What is for dinner tonight, tomorrow, all next week?
  • Emma is having tummy trouble and has a stomach ache all the time - so now, add in doctors visits,
  • Tripps sippy is broken
  • Emma and Tripp's rooms are a disaster
  • I don't even look at Eli's room.
  • The couch in the living room broke
  • Edward won't give in to Bella and JUST BITE HER
  • I don't have time to exercise
  • I have consumed my own weight in cupcakes this week (that is alot of cupcakes!)
  • A bag of dirty dishtowels that were left at church that I have to take home and wash and make sure they get back to the right spot
  • Communionware wasn't washed from Sunday night - "why didn't you get it, Mel?"

Well, I think I have made myself feel worse. But now I have a checklist.

Sorry if you made it this far. If you wanna come clip fingernails, let me know.

    Remember that love letter you are supposed to write to your husband when you are down on him? Write one to yourself.
