Wishful Thinking!

I know this is supposed to be a blog about our kids, homeschooling, and our husbands. Although this does pertain to kids. But I just have to take a minute to ask, does any mother remember what it's like to pee alone?  I have completely forgotten what it's like to be able to pee in peace! I know, I know, wishful thinking right. That doesn't happen again until sometime WAY after they have moved out. But a mom can dream. At this rate, I can't even remember the last time I left the house without my hair in a ponytail, sweatpants, and a sweatshirt on. With who knows what on it, I mean, is that the banana that the baby had last week, because I can't remember washing this then? Or could that be snot? Who knows, I just go with the flow. Who has the time to do full blown make-up? Actual clothes other than comfy ones? Not I, not unless I take major time preparing for it. And I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not missing that 45 minutes of sleep just to appear like a Stepford Wife, which I know I'm not! These days appearance is everything, but who has the time for it? Maybe one day, I'll be more like a Stepford Wife, keeping up with fashion trends and able to pull off that razorback tee that's so cute, while chasing after a toddler in 4-inch heels. But for now, I'll take those twice worn before washing sweatpants, that raggedy t-shirt that's so comfy you can't throw it away, and my tennis shoes from highschool because I'd much rather be running around outside with my kids, not a care in the world if my clothes get nasty. After all this rain the past few days, only one thing can ensue; MUD FIGHT!

  1. I don't even pee with the door open anymore and I certainly won't be wearing heels anytime soon. Here here to mom-sweats!
