Crazy+Life

Erin's Crazy LIfe.
====My story starts with too many schedules and children running my life. Help!! Is there a way out??? I have asked myself that question many times and the only answer I can come up with is that there are several options but not too many that are practical. I guess I just need to have my husband take on more of the responsibilities in order to allow more free time for me =).====

It is another day and I am already drowning, funny I just make sure that I go by Sonic and get my large cherry limeade, and chili dog with extra onions and everything will work out just fine. Funny how just the simple items in life make it brighter and the fact that both boys got up without argument this morning. Life is good also because it is Tuesday.

As for me...it is back to my workout routine and chasing after all the chores that went wild while they were unattended to. I'm sure I'm looking at a massive undertaking and a garage sale in the not to distance future. Lots of bargains. Maybe I should try eBay! Craig's List may even be easier. Whatever I do, it needs to be done...yesterday. Or maybe I should allow more time for playtime. The most horrible thing just happened. My oh-so organized, color-coded calendar has disappeared from my computer. How will I function? I won't know where I am supposed to be, or the kids either for that matter. I need a vacation! Oh to dream! My vacation is on hold until I can figure out where I'm suppose to be in the next hour. If I don't find my calendar, I might just have that "notorious breakdown" everyone is always talking about. As the year progressed, the work that had been accomplished from the previous year was suddenly destroyed by a new technology integration. The new technology that I have to learn is going to make things so much better. Getting up in the morning knowing that I have the know how to do what I need to do makes it all better. As a 21st century woman, change is not only expected but necessary so I will "get 'er done"! They keep telling me life is supposed to be much easier, when was that supposed to happen? I hope this year is going to be the year? Please pray for me? Let's take it a day at a time! We can do it! I'd like to meet these so-called experts in person so "they" can show me their credentials....I don't think "they" have a clue about real life!! The request for my time just keep coming, like the annoying gnat. It is like everyone has something that evidently only I can accomplish or make right, or oversee. I MUST learn to say "NO"! The challenge this year will be a new bell schedule and new students...
