I'm all mommied out!!!

I guess I should have included ranting in my blog title. LOL I am all mommied out!!! I have no idea why it's happening. It seems to be happening more often lately. Usually it happens on a rare occassion, I think mostly associated with a major bout of PMS. Lately though it's been happening at least a few times a month if not once a week.

Right now I've been trying to get the kids into bed for over an hour. Well, they're into bed but they're not being very quiet...guess they didn't hear me tell them they need to do both. One is not good without the other right now. Olivia is still up, climbing in and out of my lap while I type and telling me stories. I hate to say this but it's THAT type of thing right now that's the most irksome to me...poor thing.

I think the kids think I'm PMS'ing though. I've put them on alert that sleeping until noon and staying up forever are not going to be tolerated. Also that tomorrow is a WORK DAY!!!! I'm sure the big kids are rolling their eyes and saying to themselves....here we go...typical summer vacation rant. Who knows...maybe I am PMS'ing, even my computer being slow has gotten on my nerves tonight. It'd be a weird time to be experiencing it though. If everyone would go to sleep I could sit and read for a while. Now that sounds nice!

On a good note, I'm hoping that my front garden (in it's first year) will be blooming a few things in the next day or so. I'm looking forward to sharing that with everyone! (what did we do before digital cameras? lol)

Well guess I need to take a trip down the hall to remind the kids exactly what they should be doing now! I'll spare you anymore of my diatribe.

How did you get inside my head?? LOL.

I am trying to find that balance too between the carefree summer life and having some chores and accountability, because it is beginning to seem like you can't have one without the other. *I* want to be able to relax and enjoy the summer also :-)
