I love my little munchkins but my husband has been working for 11 days straight which means I’ve been working 11 days straight too. And I’m tired!!
I don’t know how women who are single parents with multiple children do it (I was a single mom of one for years and that was hard enough). It is WORK people! My husband leaves for work by 7:30 and usually doesn’t come home til after the kids are asleep so I sometimes feel like a single parent. Sigh…
Plus, I’ve been trying my hardest to keep those two in their beds (daughter has always had a problem, son was the perfect sleeper till a couple of months ago - I don’t know what happened). This morning they woke up at 5:30!!! OMG!!! And I went to bed at midnight, something I haven’t done in a long time. Needless to say, I’m exhausted.
Okay, I’m rambling, but I just wanted to say I’m glad hubby is getting a couple of days off so I can have a few breaks myself. I need to do a bunch of stuff (see last Friday’s post) and I swear I’m gonna get it done!!
Jodie says:
I know what you mean. It’s hard enough as a pair but single mums… props to them - seriously.
Tara M. Leigh says:
LOL being a single parent really sucked! Hope you get everything done!
With Love,
Tara M.
Emma Sinclair says:
Glad you get a rest soon!
Kelley says:
It is hard when your hubby works a lot. I’m glad he will have some time off so you can both get a break.
M.E Ellis says:
I didn’t find being a single mum of four hard–perhaps I’m mental–though I do see how someone else would find it difficult.
Have a nice rest, piddle arse about on the sofa with chocs and a book and chips and wine and and and…
;o)
Amanda Brice says:
I give props to all moms. I find being a plant mom hard! (I kill all my plants…I owuldn’t trust me around children.)
I can barely remember to feed myself!
Cora Zane says:
There just doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day, does there? It’s very hard to keep the kids on track, write, be a wife, AND manage to get the house work done. I’m glad to hear you are getting a much deserved break. Hopefully you can get plenty of rest and do everything you need (and want!) to do.
Shelli Stevens says:
That would be massively hard! i don’t know how you do it with more than one kid!

Stacy Dawn says:
Boy do I know exactly what you mean. Hope you get some rest and some of your own stuff done.
Melissa Marsh says:
Fortunately, my daughter likes to sleep late like me. It’s getting her to bed at night that’s the hard part! She also likes to stay up late (like me!) and it’s a struggle to find a bit of quiet just for myself at night.
Tempest Knight says:
Well, I can’t say about all this. I’m single. No kids. I have a job which sometimes requires me to work 12 hours daily. So I can bitch about my job and boss, but my house is my “fortress of solitude.”
