Today it is mostly about me. Ha ha ha! At least half the day is anyway.
Kid's time:
Up and at'em at 7 am. Breakfast and shower and taking the kids to playgroup at 10. That is their time today. I must admit that playgroup is also my time. I get to visit and associate with other mom's and friends. It is a good part of my week. When they don't come or are late, I am disappointed as my "up" basket doesn't get as full. I know, I know, I should be able to fill my "up" basket all on my own, but I am not there yet.
Then, the kids get to go over to a friends house and play. We hope they play nice. Maybe (don't believe it) at least one of them will take a nap!
Mom's time:
You already heard about playgroup. Mommy now gets to go to the counselor and dump. Hopefully, we will be able to figure out how Mommy can balance being a Mommy, wife, and self. Oh, and don't forget serving family and others outside of family without going bonkers. Learning how to recognize when it is too much before it is way overboard is a skill I have yet to acquire. This is one of the reasons for the counselor sessions.
I get to go to a chiropractic evaluation this afternoon/evening. I am hoping that taking this route will help me to feel better. I am so sick of taking all these pills and supplements in the hopes of feeling better and then having it not happen. I won't rant about doctors because I took care of that the other day, but I am very tired of going to doctors and not feeling better after taking their advice. It is a long process I know and all sorts of things to possibly work through before we find the thing or things that may be the problem. I am hoping that this one thing will help me out. If I don't feel more rested and energetic, I am never going to make it through my kids growing up years. I think my husband won't make it with me either as he doesn't want to do "everything".
Well, I better get on to taking that shower before playgroup so my friends don't have to smell the stench. On with the day! Someday I will figure out how to show this to other people.

Every now and then I'll hit the "next blog" button on top of the page and see where I end up. Today it was on your new site. It is always interesting to get a small glimpse into a stranger's life, and I can only assume that we are in similar situations. Mom's with young kids, adjusting to all that motherhood entails. It does sound as though you have more difficult health issues than I do, and I just wanted to say good luck! That someone out there can relate in a small way. Way to stick it to the doctor! Keep up the blogging, I've found it to be a great way to document the days, as well as a nice creative outlet. My baby is now crying...but again, good luck!
