hug Aww I didn't mean to make anyone feel like that, I'm sorry. hug I couldn't think of a better way to word what I was trying to say and in re-reading, it still comes across as bit judgmental. I truly didn't mean what I said in that way. Unexpected wonderful surprises happen, I'm talking more of the got to have a baby right away, kind of like the Duggars. laugh out loud

It's really hard for us as women to balance our lives, as you wrote going from taking care of parents, to kids, to parents again.
Its ok I took no offense at all, I was just saying I understand what you were saying because I feel like I didnt get to discover myself first before becoming a mom, I still feel lost sometimes Im great at feeding people and cleaning up etc, but as far a emotionally I have issues dealing with feelings etc, I never learned how to deal with that type of stuff,primarily because my mom was always sick as long as I can remember and I was thrown into the role of mother at a very young age way before having children.

I guess we just have to play the hand were delt hug

I have days where I feel like a horrible mom b/c I go to school, even tho I only attend physical class once a week, I still have MASSIVE amounts of homework to which negates the amount of time I get to spend with the kids, plus I do everything I can to ensure my kids have everything that they need or want.. but when it comes up to me.. I barely take care of myself Frown I don't have the time to do everything I used to do for myself, but its OK!! We are all different but with each differences we tend to appreciate each other for our differences and then the ways we are alike... love ya!!

OMG I am not too much older than you.. and many times I wonder what it would be like w/o being mom and a wife and I really don't remember too much of my past life lol

I was a very wild teen that was DRAMA, now I hate drama... and hate people looking at me now b4 I had to be the center of attention.. I was the true cheerleader LOL HUGS!!
I was so antisocial in HS, it was ridiculous. I was the smart, fat girl. HS was not kind to me.

Part of me wishes I had a family, like all my friends. They're all so happy (or pretend to be). I'm just not ready to give up my routine and my way of doing things just yet. Maybe that would change if I met the right person, but for now, I'm a cat lady. Eh.

Which sort of leads to a funny story. I was bored one day and on the Bloomingdales site and got caught up in wedding stuff and decided to make a registry (just, you know, in case...and for the free stuff). Well, I needed a grooms name and the first name that came to mind was Toby (which is my cats name). Apparently the number I gave them was my parents number and my mom called and wanted to know why Bloomingdales called about Toby and my wedding. I pretty much died. But I got some awesome freebies from Bloomies for it Big Grin

What is this duracell coupon that everyone seems to be excited about??

Thank you for the well wishes. Kids are still blechy and the baby is not sleeping well and feels slightly warm. Frown DH's grandmother is stablized, so we're just waiting for news and updates - but it sounds like things improved drastically.

I just re-read my comment on the poker and realized it sounds like I won money... *laugh* I did win some big pots, but it was all play money! I did win a seat in a tournament for real money though - so I hope I can be patient and win that one too!

hug you know the answer, you have to take care of yourself first. It's really, really hard to do that as mom though, no matter what your age or the age of your kids.

You know if I could do things over, when and how many kids I have isn't what I would change either. Other decisions I made, well those I would change. But my kids are irreplaceable.

And I'm going to Shutup because I stuck my foot in my mouth here. Sorry ladies for the Oops

alright sweet heart chatterboxes, WHY are so many of you awake at this hour? i have 2 excuses - lifelong insomniac, and in semi-migraine/pre-migraine wasteland.

but all you sleep-deprived moms here, why aren't you grabbing that pillow and nabbing the extra hour of turn-back-clock sleep that's awaiting you?

I had the same issue in middle school, fat, smart and wore glasses, so it wasnt the best time of my life. I didnt get to go to a traditional high school, I went to independent study because of my mom, she was always sick and I pretty much gave up real high school to take care of her and the household.

I've always been an insomniac as well. Right now, I'm waiting for the last load of laundry to finish in the washer, I'll hang some, put the rest in the dryer and then I can head to bed.

Thanks. hug I didn't mean I was going away. Won't get rid of me that easily. laugh out loud


And that sleep schedule sucks. You need to find out why you can't sleep. hug For many years, my now 8 year old only slept from 5 am to 8 am, then from 9 am to noon. From the time he was 2.5 until about age 5 is a large blur of sleepless nights. By the time he fell asleep, dh was snoring like crazy so I couldn't get to sleep so I usually was able to nap between when dh left for work and 8 am, when the girls got up to get ready for school.

EEK!

stressed much?

stress and sleeep share a vicious cycle. stress makes it harder to sleep because the stress hormones interfere with your sleep hormones. lack of stress makes one more inept at handling stress (hence the irritability etc when one is tired) which causes more stress, which brings less sleep and so forth.

so, you have to cut the cycle. get a bottle of melatonin from the drugstore. a few of my friends swear by it. it's a natural sleep chemical released by the body to bring about sleep. so taking the bottled one aids in falling off to sleep faster. they say there's no exhausted hang over like sleeping pills. no restlessness. it's just a relaxing gently slide into sleepiness. i've never tried it because it's contraindicated for migraine sufferers, but those who take it love it.
