Same Stuff, Different Day

Today is pretty much the same as yesterday with only a few differences. DS did go back to school but he called me a little while ago. I told him there is no way he is coming home. I am just too busy with a 3 year old and a 9 month old. Also, he IS feeling better and there is no need for him to be home.

For a minute let me go back to yesterday...I have come to the conclusion that there is no way I would have another baby. Okay I am 42 but I figure if it happened again, it would be okay. NOT!! I realized yesterday after having my friends' kids here all day that I have been enjoying my freedom all these years. Don't get me wrong, my two are a handful but they have been independent for awhile. They don't need me to entertain them or feed them or change them. I realized yesterday that I do not miss those baby days. Yes, I miss the moments but I do not miss the work. I was exhausted before dinnertime last night. It has been a long time since I felt that way. But all in all, yesterday was a nice day and I did enjoy having the little ones around. Today is Day 2 of that and then I have a break til Friday.

Last night after dinner, I took my shower (no way I could do it this morning with babies around) and settled in with my stitching. I was so tired, it took me about 1/2 hour to stitch one length of thread. So I decided to call it a night and I was asleep by 10 or so. I woke up this morning and so far I am wide awake. I need to be. I don't want to lose a baby. LOL

Yesterday afternoon, I managed to finish another afghan square with the exception of the border. I should be able to get that finished today. So I am at least on target with that.

I don't have to watch kids tomorrow or Thursday but I do have to work at school tomorrow morning. That should be nice for me to be with adults after being with kids all the time. Then after I finish that, I plan on coming home and doing those things that I have been unable to do the past couple days. Yes, the laundry is starting to pile again and I really need to dust and vacuum. But I will get back into my routine in no time.

I better get off for now. The 3 y.o. is having a snack and I want to make sure he is enjoying it.
