We were home this week. Derek had local construction work. We made pizza and brought him and the crew lunch wednesday.
Here we are 1 week later. This week in a few words. Exhausted, always feel like I'm 10 steps behind, no light at the end of the tunnel.
  Just being honest here. Life is catching up on me. Tyson has been up lots at night. Almost every hour some nights to nurse a bit and go right back to sleep . I love my kids but I am just plain wore out. Babies are a lot of work. I can deal with it on sleep but this is real life with no sleep.
 And I have been working so hard to keep the house picked up for hubby and my sanity but I had canning on top of it and trying to decide on what I need for Austin school. My mind never stops. I think I'm going with abeka math and the reading and phonics but not doing all the extras. Just trying to keep it simple.
  I want a simple tidy house so bad but getting there is a pull.  When do you have extra time on top of cooking ,taking care of the children ,laundry etc to go through everything in your house and organize and purge. Can you tell I am about ready to throw my hands up in the air and say I give up. But I really want a little stress free house. As I look at my over full closets ,pantry I can feel my stress level rising. You don't know how bad I want to get to the end result. I have made some progress, my kitchen counter tops are staying clean and I pick up and sweep the house every day if possible. But just to get to the behind the doors stuff and then to purge our storage building. Ahhh the list never stops.
   Canned salsa and picked greenbeans every other day.
   Well so this is a really sappy post. It's only gotta get better from here right? Fingers crossed.
  Hubs has been doing great helping with the children so I could have an occasional nap and helping sweep the floors etc. Love him so much for putting up with this mess of a girl right now. I always tell him he deserves better than me .
