Just another crazy day...

Well, I worked last night. It was an extra shift, so the kids went to Frank and Marilyn's last night. Normally, when I work, Leigh isn't scheduled at Coca~Cola. Well, today he was to work, so the kids had to sleep somewhere. He took them over after meeting last night. So, I picked them up on my way home from work this morning. I passed the 24 hr mark without sleep over there. When we got home, I headed to bed for a nap.

When I woke up awhile later...the unsupervised kids had made a dump out of the living room. urg!!! mad mommy!!! So... the kids are cleaning, and I am trying not to scream. That is the hardest thing about running with sleep deprivation: I have NO patience. Leigh will be home soon, and he has agreed to deal with the situation.

I remember when I was a kiddoe. If mom had to call dad at work to tell him about a situation at home, we were in BIG trouble!! We dreaded it when dad would discipline us!!

Anyway, Life with kids. I think we may go for icecream tonight. We have a wonderful little icecream place a couple miles from here. It is owned by a retired couple that turned their first floor of their victorian home into an oldfashioned ice cream parlor. They have the best ice cream, and very fair prices! They are very family oriented, too, which is really fun for the kids. They welcome everyone like their next door neighbor.

Tomorrow, I have 1/2 day at home to get some cleaning done. Then I work a 12 hr. tomorrow night. Gotta nap in the afternoon.
