Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 06 May 2015

I ran out of coffee creamer this morning so I am going on a sugar/caffeine fast.. I expect it to last until around 1:15. By that point I will either buy a cup of coffee or drool in a corner. Heck maybe I will drool in the corner with the cup of coffee. I realized last night after picking up little ceasars because I just didn't want to cook, eating all the breadsticks accidently and not remembering it during the ride home so I blamed it on the nose picker next to me and then hid the bag because it was evidence, and then being so tired I was crying as I fed calves that I have not had a full nights sleep in 2 years and 11 months. Little man did a freak thing once when he was 3 months old where he slept through the night but I was too freaked out making sure he was breathing to sleep. My one and apparently only chance.. and I missed it! And no.. you can't tell me to tell their father to take the night shift because it doesn't work. Blood curdling.. I WANT MAMA! from the next room is going to wake me up anyways. The husband would do it but the children will disagree.... loudly.. and then demand a cookie because daddy is a sucker. Anyways..

I'm tired, slightly brain dead, and soccer season just started. The preteen wants to play soccer. I encouraged her several times that she could quit since they only had the meeting to discuss the program but she still seems convinced she wants to play. Tonight is another practice. The only good part is it forces me to go outside with the boys and play on the schools swingset. Oh and go into tubes to get children who claim to be lost while carrying peanut who seems to gain a pound for every 10 minutes he's held. Tonight.. I'm coming prepared. I'm bringing a stoller and snacks and wearing a shirt that can't be easily pulled off. Maybe this will be my new fitness routing. Heaven knows the monkey bars could kick my butt. Added bonus? Tramatizing the preteen when her friends see me attempting the monkey bars. OMG MOOOOOOM MOOOOOM GET DOWN!!

In other news I got a jury duty summons for next week so I may be MIA. I'm excited though. Is it bad when the thought of sleeping in a half hour later in the morning makes you absolutely giddy about jury duty? Now watch I will get all excited and they won't need me so I will have to go to work.. which sucks. I hate work.
