Work

I have been busy! BUSY.
I am now working full time. I have no idea where I even found 40 hours in the week to give to a company, but I did. Whew! It does feel good to have my own workspace, feel accomplished at the end of the day, and contribute to society...and mostly talk to other adults.

But it's quite tiring. Here is my typical morning:

6:15 am wake up and grab coffee
6:30 in the shower
6:40 start makeup and turn lights on to wake up kids
6:55 wake up older two children
7:00 get self dressed and hair done
7:05 wake up the baby, nurse baby, get baby dressed
7:15 grab lunch, another coffee to go, get out the door
7:30 drop boys off at daycare
7:45 drop daughter off at dad's house or wherever she is staying until school starts
8:00 start work!

The older kids are doing well with getting themselves ready in the morning, so that's good. They get up and brush their teeth, and get dressed (in clothes laid out the night before. that is key). They don't eat breakfast at home, unless they are "starving" so I make them cinnamon toast for the car ride. I eat breakfast at work. Oatmeal in a styrofoam cup.

I have no energy because it's Friday night....more on this going to work thing later...
