Manic Monday!@#$%^&*

Ahh… yes.  It is Monday.  Again.  This means that I must first try and gather my sanity and organize my thoughts.  Oh, and yeah… do that cleaning thing again.  On top of all of the cleaning and picking-up after everyone, I must squeeze in the time to homeschool my Noah boy.  Oh!  And all while attached to a 9 month old (I swear, the boy is ALWAYS hungry… or thirsty… however you want to weigh that out.).

AND… not to mention… today marks mine and Ben’s 4 year Anniversary.  Heart.  Heart.  Heart.  Ex-Oh.  Ex-Oh.  Ex-Oh. (insert doves, ribbons and all things LOVE – here.)  This means that I have to find the time to shower and get dressed-up.  With makeup.  In something pretty.  And spray on that little sweet smelling stuff that he likes so much (reminder:  NOT the one that smells like his mother-in-law).

BUT… (no, not butt.  I knew that’s what you were thinking – dirty!)… we live in this super small town and we don’t really have anyone that we can leave the boys with for a short night-out together.  Not to mention that it has been… well… lets see… um… lets just say a VERY long time since Ben and I have done something like that.  I am talking, where we’ve been able to have a nice romantic dinner.  Time where we could relax without distractions.  Where we could talk our mildly-mature strategies on our future with the boys (Yeah. That is what I think we would do IF we were to have our alone-little-special-romantic-get-away-dinner.).

So… while I procrastinate on chores and all the other important things that I should be doing, I will sit and ponder on a special night-out with the hubby while I sip on a nice tall glass of York Peppermint Patty latte and    drown out the ambiance of my screaming children.

Here’s for a manic controlled Monday, my friends!

Cheers!
