Well after a small blow up between the BIG KIDS this week, things have gone fairly well considering.  It just gets old having the BIG KIDS get into fights over things and then end up dragging us in since we try to protect the baby in all their fights,etc. They are to move out the end of the month...but i am not holding my breath just yet!
Today was a different day though for me. Today I finally spent a large portion of my day in bed!
I know....not normal for me...but i needed to do it. I just felt so exhausted, wiped out, tired, drained,etc. I finally took a kid's multivitamin about mid morning and that seemed to help a little. I am wondering if I am on the anemic side of things since I am always so worn out any more. I know my medicines make me tired but they shouldn't make me feel like I need to stay in bed and sleep all day most days!  It has been taking all of my effort to get through the days during the week to only try to crash & burn on the weekends. Lately, that has been hard to do since the 6 yr old has soccer games at 8 am on Saturday mornings!!
I did get up and have a productive afternoon though...folded a tub of clothes, did dishes, fixed supper, got my eye brows plucked, ran the big kids on a couple of errands,etc. So all in all not a bad day considering I didn't move until 1 pm or after!! LOL
This is going to be a busy week...but the following one will be a really busy week! Too many things going on week after on a couple of days.  
Then this "fool: signed up to be a Girl Scout volunteer, AGAIN!!  My hubby just shakes his head and laughs at me...."You want to be a leader again!?!"  "NO!...just a helper!" I tell him. He knows me too well but I can't really take on a leader role this year or next due to prior commitments. So time will tell.
As you can tell I am feeling better mentally at least. My hips and legs hurt and ache from a variety of things...weight, weather, chairs, bed,etc.  I am trying to keep good thoughts in mind during all the trials the family is going through of late.  Son unemployed, Hubby unemployed, me working very part time, GF working on her GED, raising 2 little ones, hubby getting a little unemployment.
Bed time for this BOZO! Have a good week everyone!
