I am running my self ragged. Four kids, all in different activities. My day example.
5:30 up
6:30 drop son at high school
7:00 drop daughter at middle school.
Husband takes the twins
Work till 200 then run across town on a lunch break to get son and take home.
Get back to work at 300 till 500
Run to softball feilds get daughter then elementry school to get twins.
Home by 630.. That is if we don't have scouts the its to scouts till 730
Or a ball game which could be 9:00....
Once home, cook dinner, homework, showers, bed. Clean house laundry then finally I crash by 10.. In which the husband comes home and wants to talk...
I know many of you have the same rush .
How in the world do you make it through!
I am looking for ideas, support and someone who has all the answers.
My company is getting really demanding. So more work is on my plate. I am so afraid I am going to loose it.
Amanda I feel for you and can't imagine. I thought I had it bad with just two kiddos. Reading this makes me feel like a slug! I wish I had advice for you but mainly just wanted to hug you when I read this and say hang in there. Can you afford to get help from someone to pick up from softball and elementary so you can get home just a bit earlier than 6:30? I know it's small and doesn't seem like it would make a big difference but coming home just an hour early might help. Wishing you all the best and hope someone comes through with better advice!
Angie thank you so much for your hug. It means a lot. I think after today I have realized that I am the muscle in my family. This little family will not function with out me doing all that I do. I know that my children will thank me .
