Busy Busy Busy

Does it ever seem like you never get a moment to breathe? I really feel that way this week... between being a mom and a wife and work and school (both Bubba's and the hub's) and soccer and you name it I feel completely exhausted!

Now mind you I do NOT regret anything in my life, but sometimes I just want a moment to myself... that or a moment to just me and the hubs. I feel like we have not been on a "date" in a very long time and I am actually finding myself missing him :( But then I think I don't want to miss the special moments with the kiddos so we don't take time for ourselves and always include the kids. But everything I do I have willingly gotten myself into... and I honestly would not change it.

Here is a run-down of my week ~ I am NOT complaining... more venting (LOL):

• Monday ~ Get Peanut off to sitters, take Bubba to school. Arrive at work (to prepare the goodie bags for the morning's presentation) then turn around an hour and a half later to leave again to go to Bubba's school to be a part of PFD's fireman presentation. Then hurry back to work to leave an hour later to go to a meeting in PV. Then back to work to prepare for a meeting on Tuesday that I was hosting at the Prescott Resort. Then spend the entire night alone with the kiddos because the hubs is in class (so proud of him he got an A on his test! Go Babe!). Make sure to call/text all other parents on our soccer game. Showers for all. Get kiddos to bed. Finish thank you cards for a friend's baby shower. Then finally slip into bed around 1am only to wake up again to feed Peanut at 130am (right when you start to fall asleep) then again at 4am.
• Tuesday ~ Wake up (late I might add) get the kiddos ready and myself and packed into the car so that the hubs can take them to their respective areas (sitter and school) ~ which I might add that he does not typically do. Then rush over to the Resort to host a meeting. Spend the ENTIRE day at the meeting (BORING I MUST add). Then rush to pick up Bubba from school then Peanut because we have a practice game for soccer. Pack into the car and head off to the soccer game. Arrive at the game only to find out that our little man is being a BRAT!!! Won't listen, talking back and trying you every chance he gets ~ really felt like one of those moms where other parents are looking at you and saying "can you PLEASE control that kid". He actually brought me to tears regarding the way he was acting. Get something for dinner, get home, punish Bubba (which sounds easier than it really was). Get Peanut off to bed. Finally get into bed (late I might add). Wake up only one time for Peanut (thanks angel).
• Wednesday ~ Get up, get Peanut fed, find something for Bubba to eat (we NEED to go grocery shopping), get kiddos ready, get myself ready. Get the hubs ready to take the kiddos again. Arrive at Resort meeting at 730am (again boring meeting day). Find out you are introducing the Tribal President (and have NO idea what to say), give presentation (I was prepared for this~ thank goodness for an AWESOME assistant to help). Spend another evening alone with kiddos (hubs at school) but this evening I am supposed to enforce the punishment by myself (no TV) while trying to entertain a 3 year old. Get showers for everyone. Pick out clothes for Bubba for his 1st picture day. Make dinner (did I mention we have no food because we need to go shopping... that was creative). When the hubs gets home try to spend time alone together only to fall asleep early at 10pm (I had asked him not to play his game so we could spend some time together).
• Thursday ~ Wake up to Bubba begging for chocolate milk (again something we took away Tuesday night) at 6am! This is only after I fought with Peanut to go back to sleep from 430 to 530 after her morning feeding. Get everyone ready for their day. Freak out because Bubba's lunch isn't made (forgot that Nana was picking him up) in a frantic call Nana to make sure.Get Peanut off to sitter (Bubba has to go in to say hi ~ he misses her), take Bubba to school (all prepared for his pictures); wanted to stay but they were so not close to doing his class when I was there). Beg Bubba for a hug and a kiss (he had no desire to say goodbye in front of his friends), get to work. Answer emails for almost 2 hours (a lot comes in when you are out of the office for 2 days), put some fires out. Go out into the field because my boss is AWESOME (I say that with more sarcasm than anything!) and deal with security and safety issues for our landfill. Meet the hubs for lunch. Get back to office to have meeting with GM, Police and us regarding security issues. Answer some more emails and deal with some more fires. Go pick up Peanut only to find out that I need to hurry because Nana (who has Bubba) has to go to Dani's practice and cannot drop him off at our house. Get home and get the hubs changed, go pick up ONE TIRED Bubba (and bratty I might add). Try to go grocery shopping at Wal-Mart only to get frustrated because they are remodeling and you cannot find anything. All the while your family is hungry. Prepare for Friday, lunches packed Homecoming rally outfit picked out (he is going to PHS for a cheer to do with his school), charge camera. Do a blog...Finally go to bed!
• Friday ~ still to be determined!

So needless to say grocery shopping still needs to get done, laundry and house cleaning has to happen at some point... oh and we have a soccer game on Saturday.

Oh the life of a mom and a wife who happens to work full time... again I am by NO means complaining... I LOVE my life and would NOT change it; just need to vent every now and again! Thanks for listening... I feel better lol!
