my laundry pile has exploded

Share

monkeys swinging from vines and landing in mud…
building volcano’s with actual “water lava” explosions…( i swear they are going to have some AWESOME memories growing up together) this is what the boys did all day yesterday. oh and making a mountain of dirty laundry that had to be hosed off before it went into my laundry machine…they did this while katie did…
this. she never left my side. every time i stood up she would leave her picnic blanket and come hang out on my chair and she would then start to “sew” things. today has been a little bit more of a challenge…katie has decided to get the flu, so yes that makes for EVEN MORE laundry…i think i’m up to 5 loads sitting in my bedroom waiting to be folded. thankfully the boys decided to NOT put on any clothes and just play in the mud in their underwear…while i nurse the little one, and the boys build cities and volcano’s made out of mud…i have little time to sew. only bits and pieces here and there while she sleeps, and in between laundry loads. we didn’t go to church with katie tossing her cookies every half an hour, and these news reports are starting to take their toll on me. i’m thinking i need not to read what’s going on in Afghanistan these days…it rattles my nerves too much. so today sucked. but tomorrow’s another day. i’ll draw for winners of the charm packs and the scraps tonight and post in the morning the winners. tomorrow’s another day, another day closer to bringing my husband home, a day closer to not being apart, a day closer to less anxiety for his well being. i just have to do one day at a time, sometimes just one hour at a time, and unfortunately even sometimes one minute at a time.
