*blech*

Good day happy little blog readers! Our morning here did not start out very well. I had gone to bed and sometime in the middle of the night, I was quite nauseated. I just kinda slept through it, but had a bad feeling that the morning was going to be crappy (literally). So I woke at my normal time, checked on Emma who was already awake playing happily in her room. I give us about an hour to get fed, dressed and prepared to walk to the bus stop in the mornings. But the first 30 mins of this morning I was praying to the porcelain god of please-stop-making-me-barf-and poo. Well it seemed to have worked, but I'm very achy all over and extremely tired. I barely made it to Emma's bus stop and home before I was headed to the bathroom once again. That was a few hours ago, and since then, I've been okay. I just braved a bowl of multi-grain cherrio's, so we shall see. I just really want to crawl into my bed and pull the blankets over my head... but mommy's don't get days off, mommy's don't get to take a break, there is no lunch hour for mommy's. They are ON 24-7. Even when I'm sleeping and my two wonderfully unique children are laying in their beds fast asleep, I am still ON. I don't get to clock out, I don't get to even finish a meal at times. LOL! It's a job, and I get paid in hugs and kisses. hehehe! I *might* steal away a few minutes while miss Abigail is napping today at noon, but probably not since I'm too afraid I'd sleep right through bus stop time! Some days Abby needs to be waken up from her naps to go get Emma, and some days she wakes before it's time, with my luck it would be that day that Abby wants to nap for hours upon hours and I would just be snoooozing away. LOL! I guess I could set my alarm clock! That's a good idea! I'm just weak and exhausted. And I know I could call Jeremy and ask him to come home, but I'm the mother and I don't get to call in sick, LOL! I will suffer through it and pray that Abby has a 'good day' and isn't too wild. Right now she's curled up on the couch with a blankie... it's going to last about 25.5 seconds! Anyway, as hard as it is, I must remember to remain positive and make sure I surround myself w/ light, laughter and love. Here are some parting quotes to get everyone thinking and feeling! :)
