I'm wondering if there will ever be a day again that I can/will be able to sleep in past 8:00 am?
I'm wondering if there will ever be a day where I can get ALL my laundry washed, dried, folded and put away, all in the same day?
I'm wondering if there will ever come a day where someone besides myself will appreciate that they always have clean underwear, toilet paper in the drawer, and food in the fridge?
I'm wondering if there will ever come a day where I really WANT to exercise? Me and exercise aren't friends right now.
I'm wondering if I will ever NOT HAVE TO MOP THE KITCHEN FLOOR ALMOST DAILY?
I'm wondering if I will ever walk into Abby's room and not want to freak out at her? Or walk into Jake's room and have it NOT smell like stinky socks?
I'm wondering if I will ever have a day where, if I want to, I can just soak in the tub for as long as I want and not have to take a 30 second shower because I'm in a hurry?
I am wondering if there will come a day when I will look forward to summer vacation?
I am wondering if I will ever get my garden planted? It's now May 13 and there is no sign of a garden yet...
I am wondering if I will ever not hate to think about what is for dinner?
I am wondering if maybe one day, I will have a clean house again?
I am wondering if there will be a day where my family appreciates having a clean house at least once in awhile?
I am wondering if Adam will win American Idol? I can't stand him and am considering actually voting for Danny instead...(I have never voted for an American Idol contestant)
And, while we're on reality TV, I am wondering if Tony and Melissa will win Dancing with the Stars?
And, I'm really wondering, if I didn't update my blog so often, would I get more of the above mentioned things done? And, maybe if I stop now, I might get more than a 30 second shower?
I know the answer and choose to blog anyway....
P.S. I am REALLY wondering if I'll ever learn to spell "appreciate"? I spell it wrong EVERY time. Good thing for spell check. I can't be a whiner and a terrible speller....

I'm telling you all these things will happen when your uterus and ovaries are removed. j.k.
I voted for Danny last night, I can't stand the way adam sticks his tongue out when he screams.
Erin, your home is immaculate and you are a great gal. I'm wondering if we can go scrappin again? Archiver's is open until 11 on friday nights. Of course we will have to wait a couple of weeks. You are great.

And every other mom out there is wondering all the same things! I think I've realized that my house will not be clean until my kids are all moved out, and I've tried to accept that. So don't worry...we ALL have a messy house. You are such a great mom! Keep bloging about such things...It gave me a laugh and brightend my day. It always makes me feel better to know that everyone else is struggling with similar things. And Amen on the "what's for dinner" one! Oh, how that one gets hard!!!
Oh yeah, I've been meaning to tell you that I love your meat loaf reciepe that you put in that cook book we did a while back. I never had really made meat loaf, because I wans't really sure what to do, but that one is so easy, and yummy! I just have to have to think about it far enough ahead of time to make it. But thanks for that!
I feel the same way and I actually have been doing a lot less lately, cause your right no one appriciates it but me and why stress about it!!! So when the clothes are dirty, and the house is a mess hope they learn really quick how to do things!!LOL Hang in there you aren't alone.
And doesn't it make you feel a lot better to know that Kristi can't spell appreciate either? LOL :)
Nice to know I'm not the only one who wonders those same things.
Amen to everything said above!
I'm going to be the voice of reason. I can tell you from experience that having a clean house isn't as important as treasuring every moment you can with your kids and your husband. I wish I had my husband back here to clean up after, not that I did when he was alive! Seriously, he always, always put everything back where he got it. His side of the room always looked great and mine looked like a tornado struck it. Just remember that when your kids grow up they aren't going to remember if they house was clean all the time, they will remember the things you did with them and the time you spent with them. Do only a much as it takes so the health department doesn't come over, or you don't get turned over to Child Protective Services, and then enjoy your summer with your kids. Love you! Can't wait to see you next week. Aunt Kris
