Life is crazy but it's alright. Being a Full time Mommy is fun. The toys are almost always out. The DVD's are sprung out in front of the TV, there are toys in the Living room and there are toys in my Husbands pool room. Everywhere I look, there is something. There are messy bibs and there are piles of clothes to be washed in their hampers. There are unfolded blankets laying in their rightful places on the couch. There is a pile of peaches to be washed, peeled, sliced and diced and ready for cooking. There is a bag of unfinished Peanuts ready to be shucked at any time now and some veggies just waiting to be enjoyed by me.
By the end of the day there are clothes on the Bathroom floor and there are bathtub toys to be picked up and put away for my end of the day shower. There are baby towels to be rehung and dried for their next use before washing. Life is crazy, but it's alright. I am finally getting a whole nights sleep for once, or at least it seems. I have only been up at least once from time to time on occasion. Motherhood never sleeps or takes a break. I am full time 24/7.
If you have a messy house it's okay. That's life. There are lots of dishes to be put away and more dishes to do next. There is a wash and dry and wash and dry by hand cycle that I tend to repeat on a daily basis. It is on going it and it is only really me and baby and Husband when he is home. I am ready to get some type of baking done at some point but life it never stops, it just keeps on going.
Today for the first time in a long time I will have had the time of day to actually play with the dog while I have my baby who can now sit up and eat a meal sit on my lap as I throw the ball and it was successful. We all had a lot of fun and the baby well the baby found this play time with the dog quiet amusing. Life is simply this, a balance of continually juggling life and hoping you don't drop the ball, but you will. Life will happen and something will go undone and you will have realized today that one thing, just didn't get done and it will be okay and life will move on and you will have realized that life can go on even if there is a mess in each room of the house, it just proves that you are a real Human, living in your Home. What's a Home if you can't live life in it?
Today is Wednesday, and on Thursday Morning the trash man will have come and he will have gathered all the trash in the neighborhood and thank God the trash got out, at least, that, if, anything. Today is a beautiful afternoon and my Husband will be home soon and I will be glad for that. It will be 2 in and hour and so I suppose I will have made this time count by blogging about life so far. I will have made this time count by doing some around the house watering and in my dreams, I hope to at least get the trash out today and maybe water outside. Who knows what each hour brings or if the little one will wake sooner than the two hour nap time frame, that I would greatly appreciate. So for now, this is my very small contribution to a blog today, my thoughts on my oh so crazy busy life.
Perhaps one of these days, I shall slow down, I don't know, maybe when I am old.
