Unlike our fall and winter, January feels like it's taken forever to pass by. I actually looked at the calendar last week, and thought Seriously, it's still January??? That is okay, though...I welcome the change of pace.
It could have something to do with the cabin-fever setting in, or maybe the fact that between the tail end of Christmas break and Jack's snowmobiling vacation, I have been alone with kids A LOT this month!
Maybe it's because we've taken to potty-training the little man. Whoever said boys take MUCH longer to train than girls was right! There's a reason my first-born is a girl :)
Maybe it's because "big" Jack is not working right now. While that means less fun expenditures, it means I have a MR. MOM. To a working mother (who even after five years of experience, still cannot find the right "balance"), there's a bit of delight in that! I get to leave for work ALL BY MYSELF and come to home to my whole entire family already home/napped/waiting for me. Less running around equals one, happy mommy!
I think the universe knew just what I needed.

Oh do I know how you feel! I had a few sick days with Acadia and was ready to pull my hair out. Sometimes you just need some "me tme"...even if it is the ride to work :) Miss you!
I can completely relate...I have so enjoyed having my own personal "manny" and am sad that he now is back to work!
