I'M not trying to ignore you guys. You know I wouldn't. I love my bloggy friends but lately Ive barely had a chance to clip my toe nails let alone blog or even read blogs.
Each morning I wake up to some kind of crisis. Whether its wet sheets water bugs or nightmares. What would a morning be without doing excessive laundry, nose wiping and monster chasing
Give BOTH kids asthma treatments. Yes my kids never do anything easily why do once when it is so much more fun to have both kids get morning asthma attacks at the same time and vie for the one machine we have in the house. Yes I lost the other machine. I don't know where it disappeared into the wear house of stuff I call my house.
Get to work and cook for 56 kids. Yes while the cook is on leave I am now the cook. I have set oven mitts on fire and burned waffles but still they let me cook aren't I lucky.
Change 26 kid's diapers. Make 46 baby bottles.
Deal with crazy staff members. Deal with crazy kids. File, stamp, and do the Hokey Pokey.
Go home cook for the kids clean the house, bathe the kids set up everything for the morning.
Put kids to bed cook for hubby.
Fall into stupor
Wake up do it again.
So I am a little overwhelmed right now. But don't worry my Bloggy friends as soon as I've found time to take care of my luxuriously long toe nails, and maybe find some time to brush my teeth I shall be back to posting a little more frequently until then....Arghhhhhh!!!!

Don't worry about it. We all know how stressful things can get.
Goodness. I'm exhausted just reading all of the things that you have on your plate.
I need a drink and a nap just from reading about your day. Take care of yourself while you're taking care of everyone else.
I can't imagine going from kids at home to kids at work to kids at home. My head is spinning just thinking about it.
On the good side of that - eventually your toenails will get long enough to be useful in climbing trees. Trees are a great place to hide. When things get too overwhelming, take to the treetops and sing Welcome to the Jungle as loud as you can.
wow, sounds like your having fun over there. I hope it starts to calm down for you a bit.
Good gracious. You're going to need a vacation.
I say run away from home and work at the first available opportunity. Even one night away would do you good!
You don't have to apologize. Every once in a while we have to actually live our lives, not just write about them. At least, that's what I wrote on my blog today.
I hope things calm down for you soon!
My God. How do you do that. Childcare professionals, aides, nurses, those working in aged care facilities - always on the run. I work sometimes at a special needs school. Many of the children have severe disabilities. The wonderful school service officers never stop.Most of them too, have young families of their own at home, with the sorts of days you describe. You all have my utmost admiration.
You are obviously Superhuman. I think you should in addition put on a cape and long boots and go swinging around the roof tops of NY rescuing the needy. Well..you don't have enough time to sleep anyway...
love you,
Cuz xxx
p.s. Hippy Passover!
Ugh. I don't even have to do a fraction of that and I've been too busy to do the whole blogging thing lately... We will still be here :)
I'm sorry to hear you are feeling so overwhelmed. Hope this long weekend helps!
OK. Maybe you should bring your husband home a doggie bag from school while your cook is out. Water bugs???
take your time - we'll be here waiting :-)
Hmm...now that you mention it... Yeah, I could use a pedicure too, and by pedicure, I mean, cut my toenails and remove the remnants of gold glitter polish. I'm under no illusions that I can ask for more time than that.
I know how it is to let real life interfere with the blog. That's the reason I've posted poetry and Viagra light switches on mine recently.
Aren't you due for a Spring Break?
