So, this morning after managing to prepare a cup of coffee, I cleaned up salsa that had come flying out of the fridge and splashed onto the floor when I opened the fridge door,
(thank you to whoever put it in there like that), I made a pitcher of juice for three boys who kept reminding me repeatedly that they wanted juice, then spilled the entire contents of said pitcher when I knocked it over while turning around to tell them to get OFF of the table, cleaned that up and re-made juice, made a pb&j sandwich for one boy, (which MUST have the crusts cut off and cut into fourths by the way), and a hot dog with ketchup for another, only to hear minutes after handing them their food that they no longer want what they asked for anymore. HA!!!
I take a DEEP BREATH, reheat my coffee that had already gone cold, and walk away! I love my sweeties, I really do, I just needed a second.
I am determined to be productive today, but with my crazy guys, if the only thing I accomplish is typing this up, I'm counting today as a WIN!
Now if you'll excuse me, I am being called to help a screaming toddler who had been crying to have his hands washed, then started screaming when they were washed in the WRONG bathroom sink, (oh the humanity)! What can I do except smile, shrug, and think, "a day in the life"!? LOL!
P.S. I just heard one of them yelling, "Give me my popsicle"! Who in their right mind gave these kids popsicles??!!!!
P.S.S. I'm done typing this so, WIN!
Choose joy...no really.
