just accept you work in a laundry part time. Once I accepted this, I'm in a better place mentally. 🤷🏻♀️ I can't wait till DD is tall enough to put stuff in the washer. Get her a stool. 🤣

The only house work I did today was load of laundry. Other then that, the girls colored, played hide and seek, watch movie and then I helped DD1 with a lego kit during nap time. I made Potato soup and oreo truffles for dinner. DD1 said it was the best day. It was just what I needed to hear today.

Also, how is it that if I skip 1 day of cleaning that it takes me at least 3 to catch up? After that one day, my house looks like "there was a struggle." pro tip - get you an Ikea bag order from Amazon. USE the blue bag to pick up shit in the main areas that don't belong. Drop that bag in your room until you're ready to deal with it. When you have time put the things back where they go. If someone is looking for something check the blue bag. This is what I do. My downstairs is always tidy for the most part. My room is the worst in the house. My basement is the worst. Don't know where to put something? Basement. Its also where all toys are supposed to be so the kids' side looks like a disaster. Yesterday, I cleaned the kids' rooms because I wanted to throw shit out (R had some weird attachment to a jump rope he made at school with plastic bags but it never left the corner it was shoved in, recycling it goes)and I knew they wouldn't. I took a clothes basket and loaded up all of the toys to go back to the basement. That was nice because then I went around the rest of the house and gathered anything up that needed to go downstairs.

shamycooler I’m so sorry. I was your DD. I bet it was hard on my mom. You are doing the best you can in a tough situation. Just keep loving on her and she will make it through.

H came home and my kid turned into a monster. I’m sure it was just wanting attention but ugh I was too tired to deal with it. He finally calmed down at bedtime but it was a rough couple of hours.
In good news I finished the quilt top for my nephew’s baby shark birthday quilt. It was small but ambitious for my abilities. I’m happy with it. A couple of spots here and there look off and I had to redo a lot but overall it’s super cute and I’m happy with it. I have two weekends to quilt and bind it. Luckily it’s small.

And I love my husband dearly but I kind of hate that he comes home from trips with his friends and he’s always exhausted and grumpy. He doesn’t even drink so it’s not hungover. I just feel like if you got 3 nights away and the other parent has been home holding down the fort, you should kind of put a smile on and act like you appreciate the time away.
Oh well. I’m making myself cookies and ignoring his boring ass.

I just got the eyelash tint and lift that @winomite talked about and showed us and it’s the perfect alternative for me instead of fake lashes. Maybe see if that’s available near you? I... don’t know what options are in your part of AK. Did you go to my girl? So exciting that you got it done! I did! I loved her and love my lashes!! Next up will be eyebrows. ☺️
