Reality Blog

Some blogs I just can't bear to read. Not anymore. They're too depressing. Not with woe-is-me posts. Just far too many (like every one) tout how much this person accomplished that day or that week - things I could never manage to do in a month or a year. It seriously makes me sick and feel like I'm pretty much the laziest, least achieving mom/woman on the planet.

So, in fear that I have EVER made anyone feel that way, here is this post. This is my life.
It is very obvious I have neglected my blog for quite some time now. Life has been busy, kind of, and I don't typically get on the computer when the girls are awake. Or when Jeremy gets home because I don't want to waste my little time with him. I'm not really sure sometimes what we do all day. What I do all day. Especially when my house looks like this:

(No one has to wonder if children live in this house.)

Or my kids are found like this...

This is why my bed is rarely made (or doesn't stay that way for long). It just doesn't seem worth it.

What the sink looks like... while the dishwasher is running.

Or sometimes it's just a CRAPPY day.

Enough said.

If you haven't noticed, laundry is my nemesis.

I just.can't.keep.up.

None of this is to say that I'm not happy. I very much am. Living happens and I don't try to hide it. I just want anyone else who may feel overwhelmed or inadequate or exhausted to know you're not alone. And if your house looks better than this most or all of the time - now you can feel GREAT about yourself.

Though that's completely not normal and I may have to stop reading your blog.
