This is what my day-to-day life has looked like recently:
7 A.M: Wake up to the boys' elbowing/stepping on/kicking me as they crawl into bed with us.
7-8 AM: Lazy around the house, desperately trying to wake up.
8 A.M: Force myself off the couch and supervise the boys' as they clean up the huge mess they have managed to already make in the short time they have been awake.
8:30 A.M: Breakfast/put my make-up on at the dinner table....
9:15 A.M: Clean up breakfast and get the boys and myself ready for the day.
9:30 A.M: Head over to our new house to paint.
10 A.M-Noon: Paint.
12:30 P.M: Return home. Straighten up house/start preparing lunch.
1-1:30 P.M: Lunch time.
1:30-3:30 P.M: The boys' nap time. I do schoolwork for my internet classes at this time.
3:30-4 P.M: The boys' snack time. I can usually sneak in blogging/reading blogs/Facebook at this time.
4-5:30 P.M: Clean current house/fold laundry/pack.
5:30-6:30 P.M: Prepare dinner while simultaneously washing breakfast/lunch dishes.
6:30-7 P.M: Dinner. (We have to eat a bit later because of Kane's work schedule.)
7-8 P.M: While I clean up from dinner and wash the dishes, Kane gives the boys' their bath, brushes their teeth, gets them ready for bed and reads to them.
8 P.M: The boys' bedtime. I hop in the shower at this point.
8:30-11:30 P.M: Schoolwork for my internet courses.
Midnight: Bedtime for me. Finally.
The morning activities vary. If we aren't painting, then I am packing at home/grocery shopping/running errands.
I'm exhausted.
This week has been especially brutal because poor Harp has a nasty cold and (inevitably) gave it to me.
I am sooo ready to set settled into our new house and get back into regular routine again!!!
So exhausting.
ReplyDeleteBut I hate to break it to you, I'm sure it will be equally exhausting once you move.
Kids do that to you. They're little life sucking leaches. ;)
I know you already know that though.
