Re: I'm so grouchy I don't even like me right now
Oh haha- paper plates are the going rate around here lol!And the kids have been limited to one cup. I bought them each a special one at the beginning of this and it is find it or go thirsty.
My kids all do a bit every day- they just aren't good Mom substitutes. I've got a bribe planned for this afternoon- new skylanders figurines- in exchange for a much larger than usual chore list.
I have friends lined up to take the little guy off my hands for a few hours every day and that has been a godsend. I just never expected to be so drained on every level- just happy kid noise is enough to wear me out. I do feel I am getting stronger as the weeks go by. Hopefully by summer vacation I will betough enough to manage them all every day lol! This long 5 day Easter weekend was a bit much- probably part of why I'm so stressed. There just hasn't been any downtime and the messes have been multiplying.
I'm doing the best I can to just stop and lay down and also have one project to feel good about each day. Today the dog got a bath, his ears cleaned and a good brushing. For a wild puppy he is quite delighted with the grooming process- you'd think he would be challenging about it, but he just sprawls like the comb you're running through his ears is better than steak. He is a really good dog- he just needs attention and training- he just oozes perfect family pet potential. He is getting snorfleed tomorrow, so my focus this week is on spoiling the dog and working on his obedience. He has done very well today- I got him trained to "stay" for pictures. :-)
I am hoping that while the kids are cleaning up when they get home that I can get my classes prepped for the week. I teach an early morning class for high school kids on the Old Testament, and have to get back to Jeremiah for the rest of the week.

Re: I'm so grouchy I don't even like me right now
I agree! I have a 9, 7, 4, and 2 year old. While I am not a military wife (thank you and your husband immensely for your sacrifice!!), my husband works 12 hour overnight shifts and is going to school full-time. He is MIA most of the time. I had help until about week 3, then everyone seemed to assume I was good to go. I am still in pain, have some nerve complications involving my bladder now, am exhausted, and most days want to pull my hair out. I could have written most of your original post. You are not alone in how you are feeling!
Hugs to you.
