Trying to cope with the craziness

How do you cope with all the craziness? Between husband, kids, friends, work and kids school stuff/activities it is extremely overwhelming for me. In order for me to go out tonight, last night I had to make several arrangements. I needed a baby sitter who would have to pick my kids up (from different locations), make dinner and put the kids to bed for me since my husband will be out of town again. I had to write out directions to my sister-in-laws house so the baby sitter could pick up Child #1. Then make dinner instructions. Child #1 had a school project due for today as well so I had to upload pictures to walgreens and go pick them up. In the mean time, I was supposed to clean the house somewhat so we didn't look like complete slobs. Needless to say I never really got around to this so I continued to work with Child #1 on her project. Next feed the kids, bath the kids and put the kids to bed. Prepare for the next day. Attempted to clean, gave up and went to bed. Child #3 had nightmares all night long so I never really slept well, but when I woke up a miracle was upon us. The house was cleaned. My loving husband cleaned the house in the middle of the night. I was definitely surprised. So all the craziness is worth it.

Super Mom

If there is a super mom, super women or super wife out there, I would like to meet her because I certainly can't find her in my mirror.

Now I have stooped to a new low

This is an older one too, but I had to add.

Forgot to go through the Kindergarten folder last night, what a dissaster. Pull the paperwork out to find there is a Halloween dance tomorrow and the money and permission slip is due today. I open my wallet to find I don't even have three dollars. How sad is that? And of course she wants to go to this dance. I am already running 10 minutes late she starts to cry, the other two are screeming because they can't find their jackets. So I decide to raid the piggy banks. I can't win. This school shit is too much for me.
