Good Days/Bad Days

This is a very real thing for me, I have found that in my line of work (as a nanny, chef, babysitter, driver, personal assistant, maid, etc) that I have to remind myself to take things one day at a time.  I have been married for 3 years and am still adjusting to "married life".  Don't get me wrong, I love being married and I seriously have one of the best husbands around, but man is it an adjustment.  Then throw in the fact that we had two kids 13 months apart. WOW!

I know, it was my personal choice so why complain about it?  I'm not complaining, I'm working it out on the Internet.  Free therapy of sorts, just still adjusting.  The order of kids go: boy 14 years, girl 21 months, boy 7 months. 

Oddly enough the good days seem to be out numbering the bad recently.  Which is awesome because I really thought I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown but then I get on the Internet or see my real therapist and realize that I'm not alone and millions of women have had the same feelings I've had.  So even though I was pooped on, had pee poured on my foot, and had a teenager smart talk me before 9am...today still seems to be a pretty okay day.  And for now, I'm okay with good and bad...as long as the good comes in bigger volumes.  My family is my heart and soul.  And I just hope that I'm doing a good enough job for them.

On a side note, I had a babysitter for a couple hours this morning which ruled.  So I didn't even have to go the the bathroom with the door open!  But I did anyways because I was home alone and could.  HAHAHA The things that please me now are ridiculous.

An old friend

This blog is like an old friend I had previously lost contact with but am now reacquainted. I'm sure not too many people will read this so I have big plans for this little blog.  Brutal honesty! That's it, plain and simple.  I am excited to have a place to come and speak my crazy mother-lovin mind.  Ta-ta for now. I have a headache and thinking of a name for this here blog took a lot of energy.
