Revelations

Things I've realized lately:

Glitter does not come out of the hair for months!!! Bellona had glitter in her hair for a birthday party in early December and it's still there despite numerous hair washings

I really miss going to work. It's only been a few weeks and I've only got 2 more to go but I miss the social aspect of my job and having a reason to put on makeup.

This year might actually be the year I work out on a regular basis because the gym has childcare. I'm going to check it out next week, maybe working out will become the break I need from the kids. Or I could just leave them in the childcare room while I sit in the sauna.

Cleaning my house will always feel like a neverending losing battle until the kids get old enough to help or at least spend most of the day at school. Three hours of work can be demolished by them in less than 30 seconds.

I have to start seriously looking into preschool options for Bellona. How did this come about so quickly? Murphy loves his big sister so much, it'll be harder for him to have her gone for a few hours than it will for me.

I will be tired for several more years and there's really not much I can do about it except take naps when I can.
