It's yesterday all over again.
Yesterday was a very difficult day. I took the children on two short errands and the two older children ran a muck! They were awful! I think partly they were just children, but they drove me nuts! They had a selective listening filter in their ears or something. Argh, I could have beat them both!
Even after all that ended the two younger ones ran me into the ground after nap. It was constant talking and questions from one. The other one could just sit next to me, she always had to sit on top of me. If I was looking at my iPod screen she couldn't just watch. No, she had to stick her head in between me and the screen.
By the time dinner came I told Brad that I would be eating dinner in my bedroom... alone... in silence. I felt better by the time I came out, but I so drained! I don't usually have days like that. By bedtime I had a headache, which is pretty unusual for me, so I'm a baby every time I get it. I woke up several times during the night to go to the bathroom. Every time I stood up and my head would gently throb. I had dreams that my grandparents were treating the whole family to a vacation, but they were picking us up in five minutes, and I hadn't packed anything! Then, after another bathroom trip, I dreamt that I had finally packed up the bags, but now they weren't coming to pick us up.
I woke up with the same headache, a slight gross feeling, and a dread that today is yet another day full of demands. Sigh. I know, how ungrateful can I be, right? Sighing again. I'll get there.
My dad is coming around lunch time to watch the little rugrats while I attend my first prenatal. Maybe that will break up the day.
So, I pray that by the time all three children wake up, which is in about five minutes, I'll be peppy and spry and ready for anything!
My new mantra? I've got peace like a river. I've got peace like a river. I've got peace like a river in my soul!

Those days SUCK!!! Those are the days you just want to scream *SHUT UP* when everyone whats something from you and are all talking at the same time. I've done it once and I think about doing it often.
Hope you're feeling better.
