The Busy Life Of Bees.....
Things are crazy in my life right now.....I have things going on with my kids such as swim lessons, play dates, doc appts and more as well as my own little business (http://www.thesunnybelle.com/) going on, my hubby and his work, family, friends........My head spins just thinking about everything! Please bare with me if I don't post often. I will try to be consistant but there may be times that the blog is uneventful.
Once I get on the roll with things and become better at time management I plan to update the blog regularly=)
So, how many of you feel like your a worker bee; buzzing along working...and working...and doing more work? Do you feel worn down, exhausted, beat up? I guess this is what life is all about. Life must be about working hard for that reward you desire. I would LOVE to go on a vacation for my 5 year wedding anniversary SO I continue to grind and get work done in hopes of getting my desire for a much needed vacation!
Comment below and let me know what YOU hope to do this summer....maybe it's something you have been working towards for weeks, months...even years! Tell me all about it!!!
**NOTE: for some reason I am UNABLE to leave a comment in response to your comment. I am in the process of figuring out why this is so but until then leave me a comment=)

Insomnia
Every night I tell myself the same thing..."this is the night I'm going to bed early", and every night I end up looking at the clock, rubbing my blood shot eyes, and shrieking at the fact that it's past 2am. For some reason I just can't get to bed early. Don't get me wrong...I WANT to go to bed early. As a matter of fact I day dream about it all day long; tucking myself into my cozy bed, relaxing and drifting off into the land of Zzzz's is what I look forward to. As we all know, a parents job is never done and although we try to stay on some sort of schedule, things change all the time and my hopes of going to bed before the sun even goes down is a more distant possibility than I acknowledged.
Our evenings are insane. I'm not sure if you all can agree, but once it hits 5pm all Hell breaks loose in my house!! It's almost as if the kids have some type of clock set into them, signaling when it' 5pm and when it's time to drive me insane. The baby is screaming for food, my daughter just decorated my floor with juice and my son is annoyed that I haven't fetched him a glass of milk quick enough. All the while I am dreaming of my jammies, sneaking into my warm bed and falling asleep. Nope....not tonight, because after dinner it's bath time and then after bath time is story time and after story time is a million questions as to why they should have to go to sleep and a million answers why I NEED them to go to sleep. I'm exhausted just thinking about it. Once the circus has ended I creep back down stairs and start my own personal work. Almost like clock work the monitor goes off and my 6mo has woken up and demands me to put him back to sleep...there goes another 30 minutes to an hour away from my work.
Some of you might be wondering where my husband is during all of this. Well, I could say he's passed out on the couch as I'm running ragged BUT that's not true. My husband deserves a lot of credit since he does help me with everything from dinner to bathing the kids to putting them to bed. He usually hits the pillow long before I do...lucky hubby. So, here I am...awake in the middle of the night, working on special concoctions or sometimes writing, as my house if full of the gentle rumble of snoring. Once my eyes have become far to heavy to keep open I grab my water and head to bed. The feeling I have when I hit the pillow is beyond words...so why can't I fall asleep?!?!? AHHHHH I'm tired but I can't sleep....all I hear is TICK TOCK TICK TOCK......the minutes are melting into hours and before I know it my phone reads 3:30AM. I think there might be a lot of mom's out there that can relate....usually it's late at night when we take care of things and more often then not we are too wired to doze off. I'm going to try to get to bed early though, even if I'm wide awake, starring at a blank ceiling. It gets lonely at 3am ya' know.
