This - This is why I can't get anything done

frequently, at the end of the day i find myself wondering where the day went and why i don't feel like anything was accomplished.

the laundry still needs to be folded.

the floors need to be swept for the fourth time of the day.

dishes waiting to be put in the dishwasher or taken out and put in the cabinets.

you know - the really fun stuff that we love to do. and yet, while all this stuff is left seemingly undone, i am exhausted.

feeling like a ran a marathon, uphill, in the rain and against the wind.

why am i so tired?

and why don't i get anything that i set out to accomplish done?

well, yesterday was the perfect example of why.

while i was doing laundry lily found these and put one on. she looked super cute so of course i had to take a picture. and then i cleaned up the HUGE mess she made trying to get them out of the cabinet.

and contrary to what the commercials claim, these do not prevent snoring

then, in the afternoon while i was helping bella with her math she did this.

some peanut butter handprints

and in between these there were multiple spills, a few tantrums and several changes of clothing

all in a days work
