Nesting?

Well you know how when you are pregnant, they say that you nest towards the end. Although I am not pregnant…THANK YOU JESUS, I have been nesting….or So my HUSBAND says. I have rearranged every room in my house this weekend. Cleaned. Lysoled. Windexed. Vacuumed. Mopped. Scrubbed. Cleaned out. Donated junk. Shredded old papers. And the list could go on. Tony just kept saying, are you pregnant, what has gotten into you. Nothin’….just some spring cleaning. And if you know me, you know that I like to change my house around. And it usually takes a few times before it feels like HOME. Today when we were done, it felt good and it looked good. But by the time I was done, I was wishing that I had only a two bedroom house or something. Cleaning is so much work. AND I dont like to clean. I could think of so many things better to do with my time.

I had a bit of a meltdown today. The kids were fighting. Yelling. Jumping on everything. So I yelled…and I mean yelled. “Can we please have some peace for just 5 minutes” Ben my youngest son looks up at me and yells back “Mom your yelling, okay” And then it dawned on me he was yelling cause um, I was yelling. UGH. Motherhood. Sometimes it is just so frustrating. I just needed some quiet time. Never got it. You know the older ladies say, enjoy every moment with your kids, cause the time will go by and then you will miss those finger prints on the glass, and the toys. Can I just say, I dont think I am going to miss that. I dont think I am going to miss all the extra laundry, and cleaning all the extra fingerprints. I will miss my kids being small, and there cute voices, and there little hugs, but that is it. Dont get me wrong I love them to pieces, but you know. So after all that we definetly decided that we were going to join lifetime fitness again so that I can go for 2 hours a day if I want and have a break. I dont even think I will work out every time, might just sit in the hot tub or sauna, but I will be KIDLESS! I am telling you we moms need a break so we can recharge our batteries. How sad is that, I will be at the gym, but I might just be sitting on my butt in a hot tub. Oh well, at least I will be all recharged and able to handle all 5 little darlings! Who knows maybe I will get really inspired and loose that baby fat that has decided to stick around.
