Birthday break

I'm just so tired. I have too many things going on at the moment. Looking after the boys, entertaining my dad while he's here, studying. Everything else has fallen to the side. I thought I'd be able to keep up with my blogging and reading, but I hardly get a chance to check my email to read your lovely comments, I've just logged into my Google Reader and it's pushing 700 new posts, I've been reading the same book for 10 days.

It's Joshua's birthday on Friday. On Saturday is his birthday parties. Yes, we're having two parties. Yes, I know I'm insane. On Sunday, at the same time as it being Mother's Day, it's also N's birthday. So on top of everything else, I still have birthday presents to wrap, a house to clean because one of Josh's parties is being held at our house, goody bags to prepare for the children, some arts and crafts that I'd like Elliot to do in time for N's birthday and a million other things to do. N has recently cracked a rib, I'm nursing my way through a small cold. The thought of cleaning my house right now is especially sending me into a horrid state of panic.

So, goodbye until next week. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and send good thoughts my way. Things will be back to normal soon. I hope.

  8. Oh you poor woman! What a lot of stuff you have to do -- and how smart you are to step away from a few of your commitments and give yourself a little more time to breathe. See you on the other side and have fun at the birthday parties. xo

  10. On days like the ones you have planned - my two sons are born 2 days apart, 16 years apart! try planning parties for that! lol - anyway take it one thing at a time. If all else fails, make the living room and kitchen presentable (or wherever the party room is) and forget all else, because, really, in a room full of people, all anyone wants is the kids to have a fun time, and there to be cake. Lots of cake and drinks. Have fun! Have lots of fun!!

    And I love the moment after it's all done and they've all gone home... :-D
