breathe....

these days, i have no patience. the kids ask me a million questions and i feel like the dragon lady when i snap back "WHAT?!" *snarl-hiss-snarl* not sure what's causing this lack of patience, but it must be a combination of a chaotically cluttered house, unusually needy children, my own need to be left alone every once in a while, and i'm sure a host of many other things. mav has been crying for 4 days straight now. call it teething, or constipation, or baby pms...who knows. but this means i've had no break from the constant complaining my 6 month old is dishing out, and very little sleep to go along with it. deadly combination, i must say. so i'm doing what any stretched-as-far-as-she-can-go mom would do...stocking up on prunes and tylenol, venting to my bff, and heading to the pool. at least i know the pool will wear them out...*sigh*

but i have to kick all this, because i get to meet my brand new nephew today! baby boomer is flying in with my sister juju in just a few hours...for good! YAYAYAYAY!!! : ) so pulling myself up by my very gloomy bootstraps, and heading off for some r&r poolside to get out of this slump! life is good...i just wish i had a quiet moment to reflect on that fact!! lol
