I really need more than just 5 minutes but that seems to be my mind set lately. I could really use more time, which coincidentally is not something I can buy. I've got a jam packed week and really need to focus on things here at home to get them ready for the weekend. These are the days I wish I were a stay at home mom, more time to devote to my home and family. But since that is not an option, I'll forge on and do my best.
Do you ever find yourself wondering why we have 8 hour work days and then only a few hours of time at home before we go to sleep and do it all over again the next day?? If I were creating a day (which I am so NOT qualified to do) I would have 8 hour work days, 8 hour evenings and then 8 hours worth of sleep, that sounds like a good idea right? I'm sure there are some flaws to my plan but I'll pretend I don't see them :)
I find myself looking forward to 8 o'clock, not because some TV show is on that I want to see, not because it's the middle of the evening and I'm hoping to get to bed soon but because I know that my children will go to bed at 8 o'clock and I might get some peace and quiet. Do I feel guilty for feeling this? Yes, I do. But it's part of my life and I need to deal with it the best I can. I love my children don't get me wrong, I can't imagine my life with out them but sometimes I just need 5 minutes of peace and quiet to regroup and refocus. Some days that is easier said than done. Well since I said I had a jam packed week and a lot to do before the weekend gets here I should probably not be on here sitting in peace and quiet, blogging for the first time in months and get something done. Until another time, hopefully sooner than last!
