Crunchy Carpets

Clean socks are a privilege, not a right

I love my kids….really….

October 8, 2007 by Kerry Sauriol 8 Comments

but this is how they make me feel sometimes!

Help!

Between Adam crawling into my bed at night and Caity becoming the ‘cling-on’ princess during the day….I am feeling a bit cramped!   I can’t sit down without a child finding my lap.

And while I LOVE that my kids LOVE me so much…..seriously.

Today is the first day I woke up without a headache.  And it is 1:15 now and I am still doing ok.   This is the first headache free day in about 7 days.  I am not kidding.

I am cooking a turkey today for Canadian Thanksgiving…..though I don’t know who is going to eat it.  Me and my mom I guess.  I told CH to go and get his gran from the home, but he hasn’t sounded to excited about that.  And yes, she ain’t fun, but I felt it would be nice for her to see the kids and so on.  Family duty and all that.

Did I say this was the first day in a long time that I felt good?

My family are working hard to make sure that changes…between grouchy husbands and squabbling kids……oh the joys.

Oh did I say too that my house is covered in Halloween gear? CH brought back all the stuff we had in storage so we could figure out our decorating plan for this year.

Halloween is a big deal in this house.  CH and his buddy go to a lot of effort…it is quite fun.

Well, I better go check the bird.  I think it is ready…..I hope it is ready.

Happy Thanksgiving fellow Canadians.

    Your comments made me smile! My toddler Sam runs all over during the day, but is all over me at night and my husband, who sleeps with no effort and instantly, always comments how can he help it if Sam likes me best? Yes, it’s wonderful he chooses me to snuggle with, but for 1 night I’d like to be the one he likes least!

    Happy Thanksgiving! Yes, it’s good to go and get Gran from the home–I’m sure she’ll enjoy her holiday much more with you all.

    So glad you’re feeling better, if a bit over-loved! Happy Thanksgiving to y’all up there!
    Halloween is big around here, too, and our decorations have started slithering out of hiding and onto doors and tables…

    Girl, I so totally feel your pain about the kids!

    My Halloween decorations are still in the attic. I keep asking hubs to get ’em down and he hasn’t yet…guess I’ll have to climb that rickety ladder. Grr…

    Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving.

    Happy Thanksgiving and glad to see that you are feeling better.

    I remember the pictures from last year’s Halloween and I can’t wait to see this year’s. We must get started on our decorations, because life marches on and the march should have some fun in it.

    I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving!

    Is there any way that you could find some time for yourself? Maybe just an hour every once and a while.
