getting it all done...
Abby just needed to share that she is very excited because she got to use the grape scented conditioner in the shower tonight and Samantha is happy because we're going to go watch Little House on the Prairie right now. I, on the other hand, have to grade papers for school and don't know how I'm going to get it done. It's very hard to keep little ones happy and get the work the adults need to get done when we all share one body. In a normal situation of an adult needing to get something done, they could give something to the child to keep him or her occupied and then get done what they need to. But what do you do when you share one body? You can't get it all done. I know the little ones need more time. I'm feeling it inside. They are making it very known. But it's very hard trying to fit it all in. The school work is starting to build up again. I need to get it done but it's not happening because the little ones are being quite demanding lately - either they are struggling with feelings of being sad and scared or they want time to play. We need to figure out a way to manage our time better before we really fall way behind with stuff at work.

Boy oh boy hon, can I ever relate to this:

I have the SAME problem,and I know that it can be SUCH a pain. Have you tried posting this at AMJ? Maybe we could all start a discussion about it.
