I'm BORED!
I'm sure you're wondering just how I can be bored being home with 6 kids on summer break? I guess I have just fallen into a rut.
Get up, make the coffee, silently pray that the kids don't get up yet...drink the coffee, check email and Facebook...and then, the chaos begins. Still, how can I be bored in the midst of chaos? It's because just about every day is the same, I suppose.
I feel like all I do is clean up sticky messes, referee fights and squabbles, do laundry, pick up toys, ...basically run around in circles trying to stay on top of things.
Honestly, it's boring.
I try to plan things to do...things close to home and mostly free, but by the time it's all said and done, I am worn out by the bickering whining children, I'd just rather stay home, which only perpetuates the cycle of whining and squabbling children. I just can't win for nuthin'.
I know, now I'm whining.
Only 53 more days till school starts. Not that I'm counting. Nope, not me.
Time to make the coffee...
