School Mom

A lot of times I'll get comments relating to my full-time student status and full-time mom status. Something along the lines of "I don't know how you manage."

I am here to tell you that juggling, or finding the time for everything isn't really the issue. That part is quite easy.

You know what the real issue is? The real issue is that after being with the kids all.day.long. the second they go to bed is my chance to study. But, do you think I want to pull out my books and study? NO!!!

I want to sit on the couch, and watch TV, and think about nothing, and eat.

That is by far the hardest part. There are a lot of hours in the day, but feeling like you are required to utilize each and every one of them pretty much sucks.

And with that I end by telling you I've had a busy week, and tomorrow when I pick up the kids from the sitters, bring them home, and put them to bed, I am going to sit on the couch, and watch TV, and think about nothing, and eat.

At least that's my goal.

Well, I guess the only appropriate question at this point then is... what are you going to eat? Anything good? :)
