Gorgeous on the outside, angry on the inside.
Here’s how my day went.
- 06.00 - Alarm went off and I reset it.
- 06.30 - Alarm went off and I asked A to get up with kids. He didn’t…even though I got up with them both days this weekend.
- 06.40 - Fell down the stairs holding Elena and hurt my big toe.
- 07.00 - Made breakfast and spilled half of my protein shake on my computer. It took me a good 20 minutes to get everything cleaned up.
- 07.45 - Showered with both kids. We were supposed to go to a birthday party, but I just wasn’t feeling quite right and I was exhausted, so we didn’t go. Had to listen to Liam asking me why we weren’t going to Abby’s for the rest of the day.
- 09.45 - Had a snack since I missed part of my breakfast.
- 10.00 - Children making me crazy.
- 11.30 - Tired. Exhausted, actually. Considered putting the kids in bed at noon. Instead I put in Cars and tried to keep E from fussing and getting in my way as I sat on the sofa.
- 01.30 -Put kids in bed. And I tried to take A nap. L didn’t sleep and he was talking loudly and hammering on the floor. It was really annoying - particularly when he woke E. She was up at 02.30.
- 03.00 - Cleaned up the house and called Heather to bitch. It was VERY cathartic. I really miss talking on the phone with her every day…without the kids listening.
- 04.00 - A could tell that I wasn’t having a good day and he decided to come home early and took the kids outside to play. Thank goodness.

- 05.00 - Began the process of making a shake for my dinner. I got some new protein powder today, but I have to finish off some of the pre-made mixes I put together. Was hoping to replicate this mornings, but I had to cook the oatmeal. It as the thickest drink I’ve ever drunk. Not nearly as good. But at least I got to drink it alone. I was actually pretty calm by the time Aaron got home. Heather took the brunt of my bitching.
- 07.00 - Got L in bed. He was a wreck. E was kind of a wreck, but we got her in bed as well. Then I picked up the house. Whoopee.
I’m so glad it’s over.
