I don’t know what’s been going on with me today, but I am in this constant state of annoyance.  I’ve been trying to OM it away, but it keeps coming back.  I think it’s because my kids have been especially “needy” this week.  I’m talking all out, every second, minute, hour-

“Mommy, I don’t want to eat I want to play.”

“I’m not hungry.”

“No wait, yes I am hungry.”

“I don’t want that for lunch.”

“I want pickles.”

“Can you cut them?”

“EEEWWWW, nevermind. I don’t want pickles.”

“I have to go peeeeee.  I have to go peeeee!!”

“No I don’t, it’s number two.”

“I need a book.”

“Mommmmeeeeeeeee…..I’M DONE!”

“Can you wipe me?”

All the while I’m singing the Smurf’s anthem and trying to maintain my sanity.  La la la la la la-la la la la laaaaa…  Yep, that’s right – the smurfs to maintain sanity.  Have you ever even heard?  I might as well just put my head in the oven and call it a day.  No wait – a glass of red, I wanna wake up tomorrow.

There.  I feel better.  So glad it’s Saturday.

Owning and OM’ing my way through motherhood one day at a time.

Thank god daddy’s home.
