Things aren't always as easy as they appear or what they appear to be. You can go into something, thinking one thing and come out of it thinking something completely different, not necessarily bad but just different.
Like the time my friend got stuck in a drain pipe with a dead cat. We had been working on a cherry farm that summer and she had left her handbag outside during a freak flash flood. We figured her bag must have washed away so we went searching for it, only to finally spot something inside one of the drain pipes that looks remarkably like her hand bag. after crawling in We heard a muffled "Aw Yuk, it's a dead Animal" Followed by "Oh My God, I'm stuck.. I'm stuck in here with a dead animal". My other friend and i were outside the pipe in fits of laughter, which had me rolling on the grass. We eventually got her out and she forgave us and saw the funny side (thank God).
A bit like today i woke up thinking I'd be productive, work on my website and building Design assignments, but my girls didn't get the memo and instead Ive spent most of the day so far, holding my 8 month old who is going through a very demanding time and kissing hurt body parts on my wild and beautiful 2 1/2 going on 12 year old. But They go to bed at seven so being the night owl that I am, looks like work I will put of work till then.
When your a stay at home Mum, everyday is different you need to be flexible enough to work around the children's needs. I would go crazy trying to fit them into my schedule, unless you have crazy amounts of help, like every second Man and his Dog is offering to baby sit. It's not easy.
Loved the dead cat story heeheehee! gold.... wish i was there!!!
