Alarm goes off. Better get up. Hit snooze. Alarm goes off. Better get up. Hit snooze. Alarm goes off. REALLY better get up. Hit snooze. Alarm goes off. Out of time to sleep in. Get up. Realize kids aren't awake yet!! I can say a prayer in peace! Better make the bed. Someone one time said they made a habit of that and I can, too. Make the bed. Need to get a new comforter. Say prayer. Think of Elder Bednar - make it meaningful. I should be praying for people.....who are they? Hmm....Oh, well. Bless those in need. Hulk's awake. And Spiderman. Love those boys and their morning happiness. Makes me a little happier about getting up.
Get everyone a bowl of cereal. Blog during breakfast. Kiss Superman goodbye. Clean up breakfast. Tidy livingroom: Pick up dirty laundry, toys, trash. Put dirty clothes in hamper. Should start a load of laundry. Throw away trash first. Then drop off toys. Make Spiderman's bed while I'm in there. And pick up the toys. And dirty laundry.....oh, yeah. Was gonna start load of laundry. Quickly sort a load and start washer. Where was I? Oh, yeah. Tidy living room. Walk by computer. Show great restraint and keep walking. Pick up all the other random stuff in the living room and put it on the coffee table to vacuum. Vacuum. Chase kids with the vacuum. Glad they think it's fun. Let each take a turn. Another thing they think is fun. Probably ought to start a load of dishes. BLECH. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. Well, maybe I should shower first. Don't want to run out of hot water before my shower. Make sure chains are locked on doors. Turn on Wonderpets. Run to shower. Get out of shower. Any sounds of torture? Whew. Moisturize. Only have 3 minutes from the time I washed my face. Comb hair. Should I dye it again? Probably not. I kinda like it. Get dressed. Well, not really. Put on clean loungewear. Washing machine is done. Move it into the dryer. Wait. Dryer's got a load in it already. Move that to the couch. Move wet clothes to the dryer. Walk by computer again. Lose battle of wills. Start to blog.....
.......2 hours later, hair is crazy, no make-up, no dishes for lunch. Kids have destroyed living room again. Turn on over for Tony's pizza. Turn on curling iron. Pop in contacts. Do make-up. Do half of my hair. Put pizza in the oven. Hurry and finish hair. Pull pizza out. Eat my nice, healthy lunch. Summon strength to tackle dishes........
Realize dishes don't have to be a fate worse than death. Nice chance to listen to good music. And isn't it nice to have a clean sink? Well, almost. Not all the dishes fit. I'll get them next time. Like tomorrow. Or the next day.

That pretty much sums up the days, doesn't it? Good thing there are new misadventures everyday to keep it interesting!
Oh- and I'm fine with dishes but I LOATHE with a capitol 'L' mating socks! There are not words to describe my hatred of the sock basket. But today, I tackled it! Whew. My husband won't have to give his famous 'I have a dream' speech in the morning (the one where his 'dream' is that he'll open the sock drawer and there WILL be socks)!
What a day. But what a blessing to have the kids destroy the living room again. That means you have kids and they are healthy and they are there. m
LOL!!! Isnt that the truth!!! I am rolling here cause I see so much truth in that!!!
Wasnt Bednars talk great!
Boy am I EVER SCATTERBRAINED. It sounds like we have similar kinds of days, but I just have a few more of the "kids" than you have. But during the day I only have the two boys, but I still am supposed to tackle the mess from a family of 7!!! YIKEYS!!! So I can never seem to stay on task. This was a RIOT!!! I loved it.
That certainly does sound like a SAHM day! Wow I'm impressed you have an alarm clock to wake you up. Kirsten is always my alarm clock, and I stumble out of bed when she starts making noise. :)
ha ha ha!!! oh my gosh I love you. it sounds exactly like my day. except you are a little more productive. :)
