Since April, a lot has happened. I was pregnant, had a baby, quit my job and have been trying to figure out my way ever since. I agonized over staying home and, at first, it wasn't easy, but now I'm glad I am doing this. The lack of paycheck kinda sucks and the temptation to fall into the pit of my own world is strong at times, but I keep trucking.
One thing that I learned, again, is that it's hard to make friends as an adult. I've been delving into the crazy world of mommy groups. I've met some nice people, but it takes time and isn't easy to connect when the kids are trying to rip toys out of each-others hands. Ah, motherhood. One thing that is great about the mommy groups is that when your child is being a cave-person, they aren't looking at you like you've lost all control. Most of the time the moms all understand and are really nice about the tantrum your child is throwing. Then, the storm passes and it's on to the next child's tantrum.
I wish I knew how other moms kept up with their house cleaning. I feel like the house is a constant dirt pit with clutter everywhere. I'm dreading Christmas because it just means more crap to add to the crap that's already there! It was a challenge getting the house clean with one kid, it feels impossible with 2! One friend told me that I should invite people over more often, that way I will be forced to clean, but I truly prefer to sleep instead. I can't help it, that's the truth.
Well, that's what's on my mind today. Not sure if anyone will see this since I haven't written in a LONG time, but it's out in the Inter-Web now and maybe someone will be kind enough to judge me.
TTFN.
