The Middle

Have you ever watched the show on ABC "The Middle"? We love the show, Sean and I watch it almost every Wednesday (as long as the Netflix isn't on & we remember LOL).

Sometimes I feel like I live in the show! No so much the yelling at kids or feeling exhausted...but the feeling of not getting ahead being stuck in the middle...Sean and I have never "connected" to show like we do this one

I don't know about you but sometimes I feel that when we start to get ahead the car has to go to the shop or we suddenly have medical bills to pay and I JUST WANT TO SCREAM!!!!

Today was one of those days and all I could think about was "The Middle" and wonder how many other people feel the same way.

The Dirty Kitchen

As a working mom and wife - sometimes after a long 8 hours at work I want nothing more than to play with my son and enjoy family time. But I am one of those people that can't stand to have a dirty kitchen and will be bothered by it until it gets neat and orderly.

My husband laughs at me and says if it can be cleaned up in 15 minutes its not dirty...

This week though I realized no one every sees the kitchen except of course me, the hubby & baby boy and if it doesn't bother them to have the dishes in the sink or dirty pans on the stove than it shouldn't bother me. I realized that what matters most to baby boy is that his mommy is playing with him. The dishes can always be done after he goes to bed.

So this upcoming week I am going to be better at playing and not stressing over the "dirty" kitchen!

Blogging

So I decided to start this up again but I am not going to put up family photos or intimate details about my family. Instead this is just going to be a blog about the thoughts I am having or things I am thinking about. I guess kinda like thinking out loud. Well see how it goes.
