It may be hump day, but I feel like I'm on the uphill side of the hump. Ever read the book Wacky Wednesday? That's pretty much what's happening in my house today.
For starters, everyone in my house got up entirely too early and I'm beginning to wonder if everyone got up on the wrong side of the bed as well? This bleak weather doesn't help. Is Wednesday over yet?
My house is TRASHED. And I mean that. I have no ambition to pick up toys and crumbs or this morning's breakfast. Clean laundry is piled on the couch needing to be folded. Towels were folded and in the basket needing to be put away until a certain 2 year old tore them all out. Remnants of yesterday's cheese and cracker snack remain on the floor. It's gross. Is Wednesday over yet?
I couldn't get the fire going this morning and smoked up the house. Then got irritated that I was building a fire on May 12th. My freshly washed hair smells like smoke and it's bugging me so much I think I'll be on shower number two if time permits. Is Wednesday over yet?
Both my sons are whiny. Kaleb has stripped down to the buff twice already today (and probably counting). He's had 7.3 meltdowns and has said "I want daddy to be home" at least 13 times.
Nothing I do will keep Jaxon happy. Is Wednesday over yet?
I ate 3 pretzels and a yogurt for lunch. I've popped 3 tylenol and 3 advil (not at the same time) because my stiff neck hurts so terribly bad, but I don't feel an ounce better. Is Wednesday over yet?
I'm looking forward to home group tonight to get out of the house and have adult conversation. I'm cooking side dish for dinner but don't have the carrots I need.
T-minus 2.5 hours and daddy will be home! Hopefully he'll have the carrots.

<3 Don't worry. It will be over. That's pretty much how all of yesterday was for me, and today is going better, so maybe Thursday will be your clean-up day.
Yesterday when I was feeling all down, I wrote a blog post about it. Someone commented telling me that she hoped I had a great day. My first thought was, "Humph. Didn't you get it, lady? The whole point of this post was that I'm having a BAD day!" Then I started thinking about the things that were good and God's goodness through the hard things. It helped. : )
Looking forward to seeing you at home group.
p.s. Remember your posts about praying and the good things that were happening between you and Eric and God? It's possible that you're facing a time of attack because of it. Satan wants to undermine godly families and isn't too proud to stoop to any methods. Don't give up! I'll be praying for you the rest of the afternoon.
<3 i hope things get better for you. . .
I hear yah! Sounds like a recent day in the Sullivan household. Ethan loves to take my recently folded laundry and throw it everywhere... then watch for my reaction. I am glad I am not the only who has NO motivation sometimes... I hope you are having a much better day today! Miss you lots! Hope to see you in June... if you are around.
