Today I felt like I was running a race!
After the birthday party weekend, there were tons of things around the house that needed to be done. Laundry. Vacuuming. General cleaning. Making dinner. Making bread for the weeks lunches. Oh yeah, and having 4 kids under foot all day.
Yep, they didn't have school today. Personally I think it is the school's way of getting back at the parents. Don't get me wrong, I love the kids. I do. I just do not relish being the maid, judge and jury, police officer, doctor, and personal chef all at the same time. It is difficult, because I am constantly on the move. Just when I have one fire put out, another one flares, and it is up to me to get it under control as well.
It is extra fun times, when all of the kids are tired from the weekend. That is when the alter egos come out and possess them. I thought I should call a priest and request the group rate for exorcism.
They don't act up all the time, just in spurts and fits. Usually right when I am trying to get something done. Murphy's law I suppose. Oh well what can you do? Not much. Mostly just shake my head and mutter to myself, or shake my head and laugh.
I will tell you this though, they are all fantastic actors. Every last one of them deserves them for the over acting melodrama moments.
Well I must run. The inmates may have taken control of the asylum!
More later!
