Wit’s end
Rough day.
Rough start to the week.
It is rainy and perhaps that doesn’t help make my disposition any sunnier.
Tomo had a nice day of school. Skyler is doing all right. The problematic kid right now is Maya. She is a bright girl and uses that much to her own advantage. In the terrible two stage?? Yes, terribly so.
I know that I am having trouble juggling all that I do from day to day, and the sign that I am not doing great come out in the way Maya looks for ways to be mischievous and get into trouble. I am very tired and exhausted from a morning of cleaning up messes, soothing over pains, and punishing a little girl.
I am not much for counting the days until summer, but I have to be very honest in saying that I will be very glad when one of the plates that I have been faithfully and patiently spinning for about a year and a half is safely out of my hands. That plate has been a tough one to keep spinning and has been quite time consuming. I know my children will be glad to have some more of mom’s attention back.
Just got to keep hanging in there. Got to just keep spinning those plates and pray that none fall and break. I worry about that a lot. I worry that I will get distracted and drop a plate.
