- We visited my in-laws last weekend. Friday noon through Sunday 10 in the morning. M and K continued to fight even at their grandparents' house. I chased after the baby nearly the whole time and while I wish that I'd lost about 5 pounds in the process I think my eating the whole bag of Gardettos negated any weight loss.
- We didn't eat roast or corn or mashed potatoes while we were there. I'm scared for the health of my mother-in-law. In fact, we didn't even eat pizza on Friday night and that is just wrong.
- I'm fairly certain I'm coming up on (or in) the cranky time that :::shhhh::: we will not talk about. Step lightly my friends.
- #3 means I'm feeling all sad and sentimental and also wondering why my blog readership/following is so low. So I get all sad and bummed and think I suck.
- My two older children will be starting school next Wednesday and Thursday. I'm both sad and excited. Excited because I want to start working out again regularly and also because they have been fighting nonstop. I'm sad because. Because.
- I want very much to enjoy these last few days with all of my children home with me. I'm pretty sure my two older kids will make me want to eat them.
- Do I have anger issues? I might. I should seek help.
- There were at least 2 awkward moments while I was visiting my in-laws. Let's just say that my eyes may never be the same again.
- Also? If you think you need new underwear? You probably do.
- I may, or may not have just vomited a little in my mouth.
- On the bright side, it was fun showing and teaching the grandparents how to use the Wii. Maybe they will buy one and play games together instead of grouching at one another. :::swooo::: (sound of my holding my breath)
- The baby's fingernails are pretty much drug-length at this point. I don't think she has a habit, but she certainly wails when we try to trim her nails.
- I hope to someday soon find another stay-at-home-mom who wants to be my friend and do things together regularly.
- I sound pathetic.
- Hi! I'm Heather and I'm pathetic. Also? A little socially stunted.
- I would be a wreck at BlogHer.
- I'm still a little sad I won't be there.
- Gah! I still have to prepare a big birthday party for 2 of my kids.
- Not that I'm worried or anything. ::looking around anxiously::
- My hair still sucks, but perhaps in a couple of weeks I will have time to get it done. ....Sob! In a couple of weeks I might have time to get my hair done because two of my kids will be in elementary school. Oh man.
Edited to add: Wow! Depressing much? This was intended as light-hearted but when I reread it now I sound a little like I should be on suicide watch. Also? #2 where I say I'm worried about my MIL's health? THAT too was sort of a joke because she usually fixes roast beef, mashed pototoes and corn every time we visit. I thought she might be feeling a little off that she didn't fix it. I know, bad joke.

Oh, honey.... {hugs}. You're not alone.
If I lived closer I would so be your friend and hang out with you. I too am counting down the days to school starting. I think Evan is being so irritating on purpose so I will not feel sad about sending him to school. I do feel a bit sad about harry being gone so much but I do know he will love preschool and it will be nice to have just one kid at home in the mornings.
Honey, that is a sad batch of randomness! I am sorry!
Would it help at all if I said I get it? Because I absolutely get it. Except I don't get roast when I go to my inlaws, thought wow, if I did, it would be a nice change of pace over Burger King.
Hugs, hun.
ok for real for the last 5 years that I have blogged summer always sucks for comments. It will pick up again when the weather changes.
I will you lived here I would knit you toques :)
Oh man! You are having a rough day! I AM your friend and we should hang out soon. Don't worry about the blog followers...I'm pretty sure you are the only one that reads mine, so it could be worse. Lastly, I can't believe K is going to school already! I'd be a little freaked out too. At some point, it will feel like my kids don't need me anymore and that scares the crap out of me more than anything.
Wait, have you been taking notes about blog writing from me? Cause this sounds like something I would write!
Dude, hang in there my friend!! All will be right with the world soon. Sounds like a bad case of PMS. Which is what I'm suffering from right now, too.
Yeah, like Awesome Mom it would be great to hang out with you. The peeps in your book club aren't SAHMs? I hope the kids' going back to school won't be too bad for you. Your drug-length comment made me laugh! So hey at least at the end of the day you can say you made someone laugh! ;)
#13 Finding stay at home mommy friends is ridiculously difficult! A friend of mine is a sahm. She started a playgroup. There are a whopping 3 of us. Oh. my. I'm not sure if it's because we live in the middle of nowhere or because sahm's are dying out. Good luck to you on that front!
#6 I sometimes tell Levi that if he wasn't so darn stinkin' cute I'd eat him for breakfast.
#8 Yikes!
