Once upon a time weekends were a time to sleep really late,
hang out with friends, maybe go out to brunch, maybe go into the city to shop,
or just walk around, or maybe just flop on the couch and watch movies in my
PJs.
Then we bought a house and had three kids. Now my weekends look like this:
Track practice (kid #1)
Book club (kid #2)
Lacrosse practice (kid #3)
Inlaw visit (Friday –Sunday)
Grocery store for more cake-making supplies
Make birthday cake and 3 dozen cupcakes
Make chili dinner for the fam.
Birthday party with 14 kids at our house
Take birthday kid to Target because she can’t wait another
second to use the gift card she received.
Lacrosse game
3 trips to Home Depot
Start to clean out the garage
10000000 loads of laundry
Get the house “back to rights” from the birthday party
Chop down brambles that are choking out the good plants in
our back yard.
Spray the poison ivy that is threatening to take over my
yard
Work on freelance logo design project
Make homemade meatballs and sauce
Make sure kids have all the papers/books/permission
slips/whatever they need for Monday.
Make three dirty kids take showers
Probably more laundry
*sigh
