The Glass Is Half Full, My Friend
i usually keep The Blog lite'n'fluffy, but today i feel a whinge coming on. yeah, even *i* can't be Little Miss Sunshine *all* the time.
today i just wanna sit at the table and light candles and listen to music and make beautiful things, drink coffee and eat cake, do pilates, have an uninterrupted chat with a girlfriend, go for walks... without the kiddos incessantly rabbiting in my ear.
the thing is, i do adore hanging with them, and i'm not ready to whang everyone in school, i'm just feeling restless, uninspired, overwhelmed, vulnerable, and feeling like i *shouldn't* cos we've just had two weeks of school hols... and heck, i'm mid-cycle, the hormones are supposedly in balance.
i don't really need an answer, or even a pat on the back, just sending these thoughts out into the universe. and like the Dread Pirate Roberts, i'll probably feel differently in the morning.
and hey, look what is *so* happy that i moved it to the garden beside the front door...

Hello Princess Procrastination, I'm the Queen of Excuses...so pleased to meet you ;O) xxxx
i know there is some inspiration in there SOMEWHERE..... maybe a nice relaxing bubblebath will bring it all out ;)
:)
Hugs to you.
I could only dream of doing the homeschooling thing, so my hat goes off to you that you have done it as long as you have.
Is there such a thing as playing hookey for homeschooling? If so then you deserve a 'free day' just for you.
I hear ya babe (& I'm only at 3 yrs in!).
I hear ya too, and I don't even home-school. Oldest start's school in a couple of weeks and I dream of the day the youngest settles into kindy so I can have a few hours peace a week. Sounds like you could do with a wee break or the day off to have some indulgence time to yourself.
Kate Im sori your feeling jaded
I like the picture
Im praying for you
Im sure youre not over homeschooling
do something for you after the littles have gone to bed tonight
and while the older ones amuse themselves
If I lived closer Id come and babysit for the afternoon
since I cant do that
Ill do this instead
just to remind you how truly special you are
theres something on there for you
I have just made the most divine Cranberry & dark chocolate cookies. I am now considering posting one to you - do you think it would make it?
It could be the weather - I have also been having a very hard week...even starting looking on the job sites (oh dear) maybe us 'Little Miss Sunshines' got so excited with the summer weather, that when it turns on us it's all a bit too much!
We are off to Whanga this weekend through to Tues - how far away are you?
Leighxx

wow girlies, thanks *so* much for ALL THE LOVE!!!
yeah, i'm thinking i didn't have my mamma's day out in the hols, maybe that's contributing to the general feeling of *bleagh*
leighleigh, i am already drooling in anticipation of dat Big Bikkie!!! oh, and we are all booked to go to whanga for labour weekend, we're an hour and a half away... will you be there then too?? hang on, this is about to turn into a sanguine epic... check your email!! X

Unfortunately, down times happen even to absolutely terrific people. BUT they rarely last long for terrific and sparkly mamas! Hang in there :)
