And it just keeps going...

I've spent the last two days assessing my feelings.  As in, I'm wondering if what I'm feeling is normal or if it makes me a horrible mother.  I give my Mom kudos.  She made this parenting while Dad is at work thing look easy.  I'm sure that she had her share of trials and tribulations.  And, I'm sure that she "blew up" a time or two.  I certainly don't remember those times.  I'm not sure whether that is a good thing or a bad thing.

I love my children very much.  But, this is hard.  Having them together full-time.  I know it's doable.  I'm not saying that it isn't.  And, I don't want to gave flamed for my opinion. I can do it.  I have done it.  This will pass.  I just need to keep telling myself this.  It just keeps going and going and going...

I guess what bothers me the most about being a SAHM is that according to *some* friends(or one in particular), I don't have a real job.  Well, you can just shove it.

Okay, enough venting.  Tomorrow WILL be a better day.  

A hui hou!

Endless Summer

This is the summer that just won't end.  I know that I should be happy that summer is here but it's been such a hard one that I'm ready for it to be done.  There was entirely too much travel and too much drama.  And not the good kind.  I feel like a drama magnet. 

I was hoping to post a happy entry with lots of sunshine, rainbows and butterflies.  I guess that will have to wait for another time.

For now, I'm back on island and happy to be back.  Princess Cranky Pants is home and school starts in a week.  I'm going to focus on the positive and enjoy the remaining days of summer with my lovebugs.

A hui hou!
