There are days that you think: "Can it be tomorrow already, please?"
I had one of those days yesterday. A day full of kids whining and bickering, not listening and a mommy trying to either entertain them (to please stop the fighting) or trying to ignore them. I did lose my temper a couple of times, I am afraid.
A day like yesterday is not a good day. And very hard to let go.
I really needed a pick me up. Badly.
After Big Man came home, I excused myself and sewed away my frustrations behind my sewing machine. You know, to get the feeling to at least get one thing right on such a day!
It worked :)
This morning I got up "refreshed" (bad days stick a bit too much) and started a new day.
Things luckily were better than yesterday.
The kids played a bit more behaved and I had to give Little Man less time-outs (I don't know what is wrong with him, maybe he is just out of routine this May vacation).
My mother-in-law came over. Grandparents are lifesavers, seriously!
I worked a bit on my border, but the blanket got stolen:
Bad days happen. Tomorrow there are new possibilities (and probably kids that respond better to their mommy :) )!
I also wanted to thank you for all of your comments during the last few days. They were little lights during the past days. Thank you so much!
Somedays are unfortunately like that. Generally they don't come two days in a row though. Glad you could see a bit, it's a good thing :-)
