I fear that if this PMT does not subside soon, I shall be stuck in a permanent state of "bitch". Let's review the week shall we? We had Motivational Monday and Terrific Tuesday which were good days. Then came what I will henceforth be referring to as Whatever Wednesday where my attitude was very much whatever. Now I find myself here at Thirsty Thursday with PMT in full swing and a strong desire to run away and join the circus. What is Thirsty Thursday I hear you ask? It is a day where your children drive you to drink! Of course my morals prevent me from cracking open a bottle of wine at 8am but come 8pm tonight, I am not so confident that the bottle of Sav Blanc in the fridge will still be corked!
You know those days when you wake up and despite your best efforts, you know it is going to be "one of those days". It usually begins with the kids waking up far to early and in very feral moods...check! Then comes the whinging and demands from the kids while you are trying to make their breakfast...check! Then comes cranky, tired husbands unpleasant departure to work for the day...check! Then comes the realisation you forgot to buy milk after brewing your cup of tea...check! Then comes the shit and I mean literally, the shit. You get a whiff of a stenchy nappy and throw your hands up to the heavens asking "Why? Seriously, how much poo can one child produce!?!?!" Then comes the little voice from the other end of the house "Mum, I've done a poo" as if it is breaking news for the day...check! Then comes the mad rush to cook something to take to Mum's Group because you forgot all about preparing anything the day before...check! Then comes the dawning realisation that you put a load of towels on yesterday and forgot to hang them out. You then discover said musty towels still sitting in the washing machine...check! Then come the time outs, smacked backsides and shouting matches with the kids (namely a certain 4 year old!)...check! And finally, to top it off, then comes Elliott's injury for the morning...just a slightly bruised cheek after doing the splits climbing over my cross trainer...check!
Sigh. Yep, it sure is going to be one of those days. I know that once I get to Mum's Group and have a good laugh with the girls, everything will be right with the world again. Until then, I shall try not to crack open that bottle of wine, but without milk for my cup of tea, it will be all to tempting! Have a great Thirsty Thursday guys :)
