hectic days : sunday

It seems like every sunday is a hectic day. But on the days that it is branch council it seems as though i am rushing that much more to be at church by 8 to have a meeting end by 9 just to go home(or not) just to come back by 10 for sacrament.

I have become resigned to this. Today though was even harder. Today Taylor had to be at work at 630am. Of course i didnt go to bed early. Because that would just be too easy. So alarm goes off, i am already awake, having fed Brynden 20 minutes ago, I rouse the sleeping monkeys and pile them into the car and drop Taylor off. It is 630am. I am off to the house where the marathon begins. I need to get the boys dressed and fed. Do my workout and shower, get dressed for church, make sure i have everything i need for the next 5 hours and the whole time Brynden is crying, screaming, wailing at the injustice. I make it to my meeting, late of course, but a few came in behind me so it wasnt so bad.

Cue in screaming children running amok for the next 3 hours till i dropped them at their classes.

then we have to have lunch get taylor and i am sleepy and grumpy finally falling into bed for a nap. woken up at 5 to start dinner where i tackle this fatty piece of pork that seems like it has more fat then meat and of course its marbled so the fat is really in there.

get dinner done kids still wont stop with the talking crying playing not eating food while i am trying to relax. I go to put the baby down for bed and walk into the dark bedroom and step on something cold and squishy. I immediately think CRAP! its a banana (they had them earlier) well taylor turned on the light ( i refused to move didnt want banana all over the floor) and i have a piece of POOP on my toe!!!!! Gross I am about to cry and trying not to drop brynden and trying to not put my foot back on the floor, cause taylor is trying to clean off the poop.

apparently earlier when Brody barely made it to the toliet, he took a pit stop in his room to grab his stool( play on words) so that he could get onto the toliet, not realizing that he left a bit behind........

MOving on, put the baby down
Get the bath going while i am washing dishes, thankfully taylor bathed brynden earlier and now they are both sleeping. Walk into the bathroom(it sounded like trouble) and lo and behold there is about an inch of water on the floor. Apparently it just jumped out. URGH, can this day ever end???

finally put them into bed and have a pile and i do mean PILE (think HUGE PILE) of smelly urine clothes to wash.. and instead i am playing on facebook with linda! Yippee for me. I did compromise. there are loads washing and drying while i am playing.

Maybe monday will be better
