Groundhogs Day

Ever feel like your caught in the movie groundhogs day? Where everyday's events just lead into the next... and its the same thing over and over again until you get to the weekend?

Wake up, shower, get kids ready, run out the door, go to work, get out of work, pick up kids, dinner, baths, books, (then pack for the next day to start over) bed! If your schedule is anything like mine, you know exactly how I feel. Sometimes its that never ending cycle of routine that can just kill your excitement! I've been listening to moms, express the same feelings over and over again and no one has a great solution. Its always what needs to get done, comes way before our wants in life. So how do you break up the monotony? If you have a great response I'd love to hear... because this week I'm at a loss for words and or ideas?

Falling into bed

By the end of the week, I am completely spent! Its a good thing that I have a great support system around me. I find that even with a support system there is always something that gets missed or is lacking. Its everything from time for myself, chores around the house, my career, and or any sort of quality time with my husband and I. Something is always lacking. I know we are in some tough years right now with the kids ages being 3 years and 11 months, but a small break to get my eye brows waxed is desperately needed. Some of the issue is the guilt of time away from my kids because I am a full time working mother. I truly believe you don't fully understand this unless your doing it! My evening tonight was compiled of rushing out of work so I can get to our Nanny's house on time. Packing the two kids up and running over to support my husbands baseball game in the some what decent weather we got today. It was the first time my son got to see a high school game, and my daughter was thrilled to be outside picking flowers cheering for daddy at the top of her lunges! After three innings the breeze was cooling off so we packed up to head home, to continue our routine of dinner bath, bed, then bedtime routine.. the usual! And all I can think of is Thank you so much for Saturday!
