Living The Life...Of A Single Mom

This blog is about my journey as a single mom. I will (hopefully) be updating the blog several times a week.

Somewhere between clean and dirty...

I've never been a very good house keeper, but I'm not a complete slob either. I always thought that if I ever had kids I'd just magically acquire all the qualities a good mom has. Boy was I wrong! In the past 22 months my house keeping skills have gotten worse, I don't cook as often as I should and I nap a lot. Sometimes I think it's because I am exhausted from chasing a toddler around all day, then I turn around and think maybe I am just lazy. I really can't decide which one it is.

My house is a mess, and that is being generous. It could probably be more accurately described as a disaster zone. I live in a small two bedroom apartment with my mom, Lorelai, myself and most of the time my two nieces and nephew are here as well. My mom works nights, so she sleeps during the day, which means the cooking and cleaning is up to me. With three toddlers and a 9 year old running around it's hard to keep anything clean for more than ten minutes at a time.

Every time I try to write something happens and I have to stop. I always think I'll come back later and finish what I started, but never do. I started this two weeks ago and just not got around to finishing it, but I forgot what my point was, so...

Good night...
