Today I had some time to myself to read some of my favorite blogs. I noticed quite a few reflecting on their past week, their weekend and other milestones and celebrations. It was a nice reprieve from all of the thoughts swirling in my head.
Last week was crazy. I worked from 8am – 10pm every day (including Saturday) and didn’t not get quality time with any member of my family. I didn’t eat well, I had a headache most of the week and fell into bed last night exhausted.
Today, my amazing hubby let me sleep in, did some errands and I worked away at preparing for this week. If I thought last week was nuts, this week might be a tie. My husband has two catering jobs at night, is a guest chef at a spa two hours away Tuesday and Wednesday, I am working all week, the boys have preschool and I need to eat well, exercise and get some sleep!
In preparation for the week ahead I did four loads of laundry today, repared shopping lists, ensured we had good healthy food in the fridge, planned for meals, planned my blog, reconciled our bank accounts, and paid our bills. I think one of the hardest parts about being a mom is juggling it all.
Thankfully I had time to catch a photo of Nico wearing my Birks :) |
Now, if only the house would magically clean itself life would be perfect!
What do you have going on this week?
Sarah Lynn says
Just reading that post made me feel exhausted!
You seem very organized, and when I go back to work I will be taking your organizational Sundays to heart.
I totally wished houses cleaned themselves. Didn’t the Jetson’s house do that? Or was that just Rosie, the robot maid? Either way, the future needs to get here (cleaning-wise!) :)

Totally agree. There was so much from the Jetsons that I wish would actually be invented! I would definitely go for a food machine in my house that spit out organic healthy meals! And, anything that cleans for me would be fantastic!
I wish Sundays didn’t have to be filled with organizing, but it is essential to survival!
Hope you have a great week!

If your house stars magically cleaning itself, you will make millions from the secret.

Gah, what a crazy sounding week! That’s nuts. Wish there WAS such a thing as a self-cleaning house.
Kerrie @ Family Food and Travel says
I feel that if there can be a self cleaning oven there should be a self cleaning house too!
