So much easier

So I know that this isn't as cool as pictures of the baby, but I'll try and include them every once in awhile. I promise.

I was just thinking about how I wasn't sure if I wanted a blog or not - do I really want people to know things about me? I mean - who do I NOT tell about my blog to make sure that I don't get in trouble? hhhmmmm....most of you know that answer.

I'm attempting to juggle what seems the insurmountable task of being a mommy. How do women do it? How do those women work, clean and mother all at the same time and still keep their sanity. I feel like every day I'm climing up a mountain and it's sandy, so I keep sliding a little bit back with every step I take, and when I rest I just keep slowly sliding. And it's the tallest mountain ever! I'm not on the verge of a breakdown. I know that if I just keep climbing that I'll get used to the climb and eventually my strides will be a little bit longer and sometimes a little bit shorter, but it's that never ending climb that boggles my mind at the end of every day when I realize I haven't finished what's on my to do list.

So if I have stuff on my to do list, then why am I sitting at the computer? Because I enjoy my "me" time and think that it's just as important as wiping off the counters and starting the dishwasher. and much more important than taking those boxes full of junk from moving out to the dumpster. I'll get to them soon. sigh...I hope.
