Hummina Hummina Hummina

It's one of those evenings, after one of those days, after one of those weeks, after one of those months, after another one of those months, where you just sit back and say... "Huh?"

It's all a blur. Why have things been so busy? It's the bleak midwinter, for pete's sake. At the moment, my mind is racing... This is done, that is not. Part of this project is finished, but another part is not. A cake is baking in the oven for tomorrow night, I'll make frosting tomorrow. Other plans are in place for the day after that. Part of what I need done for tomorrow is done, part is not. The house is quasi clean, but not really, but I don't even have time to think about that. So-and-so has this-and-that going on. I should give him/her a call. There are a lot of random leftovers in the fridge. Some are still edible. Some are not. I have to remember to clean that out. The laundry needs to be done. But I can't get to it today. We are finally all starting to feel healthy again. Kind of. But not quite. And... hiccup... I'm getting a migraine and it's making my tummy queasy. And I really need to go pull that meatloaf out of the oven. Somebody pooped. Somebody puked. Somebody got a bloody nose. Lather, rinse, repeat. I should really finish reading those two books I started. I really like bacon. I should eat more vegetables. I'm going to eat an entire avocado right now. The voices, they never stop... "Mom. Mom. Mom, mom, mom. Mom? Mom. Mom!" It worries me how easily I can tune them out, yet I'm certain it may be preserving my sanity. Oooooh... 'Pure Country' is on CMT. I wish I had time to watch it. I love George Strait. I also like Jamie O'Neal. She should really put out some new songs. I wonder why she doesn't? Maybe she's a busy mom, like me. That's certainly the reason why I haven't put out any new songs lately.

The recent thought processes of a currently over-multi-tasking mother of small children, ladies and gentlemen. I hope you have enjoyed them.

I just know it is going to be one of those nights where I go to bed and dream about all the things I've been doing all day. When does this merry-go-round slow down? It's not so much that I don't like the merry-go-round. It's just that it seems to be going a little too fast. Who do I need to talk to about this?

Lather rinse repeat is right!

Hope the meatloaf tastes ok after the poop and puke.

I'm supposed to be an empty nester but they keep moving back home.
I'm STILL on that roller coaster.

Waiting for boredom even at my advanced age!

You need a good nights sleep, some chocolate and a pedicure! If I EVER get to the FARMERGALSMARKET, I'm going to make sure you get it!

I hear ya! Hang in there, this has been my pep-talk for the week...as long as the kids are dressed, fed, changed, hubby's happy and Christ is glorified, that's quite the accomplishment, the rest is gravy! ;)
