And I was doing so well...

Until today! Olivia woke up cranky. Eliza & Emma woke up at 6:30. We went to Emma's first day of swimming lessons and that was fine she had a blast. Lane & Eliza freaked out because they wanted to swim also... Lane tried to throw his toy truck "mater" in the pool because he said he wanted him to swim. Then we left and I needed to run to walmart so I could get some dish washing detergent & laundry soap. We weren't even in the store and Eliza was already freaking out, screaming "I WANT GUM, I WANT GUM". So to say the least we were in and out. I wouldn't have even gone except I needed that stuff, I've done so well a WHOLE WEEK and my house is still CLEAN!!! There aren't even dishes in the sink and no laundry that needs to be folded the only thing I have undone is one pile of clothes that I need to take down stairs to Em's room. So when we got home from awesome walmart I fed the kids and put them to bed because obviously they got up way to early and THEY couldn't stand themselves and I certainly couldn't stand them any longer. The worst thing was that Eliza only slept for about 1 1/2 hours and she woke Lane up after about 1 hour for him. Olivia slept the longest and Em never went to sleep so by the end of the evening they were ALLLLLL cranky. Therefore, I was cranky. We had dinner which was "Lazy Man's Stroganoff" & Peas and then it was bed time. Now I'm listening to the hum of the A/C and just glad that I will have a couple of hours of peace and quiet. And maybe just maybe I can get this headache to go away! Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Right now what sounds good is this...I would love to be on a lake looking at the sunset in a nice comfortable chair on the porch of my self equipped cabin with no kids around listening to the peacefulness of nature and then going inside the cabin and finishing a week of bliss with my adult friends. (Of course, this is my scrapbook getaway, someday!)
