I am glad Christmas is over. Does that make me a Scrooge? I like the season and all, but I’m so very, very tired, and so very, very poor…. And I still have a birthday to do on the 30th. My eldest turns 10. I’m too young to have a 10yo! Okay, thats a lie. I turn 40 on the 11th of January… so I guess I am old enough to have a 10yo…. but still, it just seems wrong.
I’m rambling, I know, but that’s what happens when the chaos wins. I finally felt like things were about to settle down again, and then birthdays and new years came back at me. We don’t usually (meaning never) do anything for New Year’s eve, but we’ve been invited to a friends house, along with the kids, and we kinda feel obligated to go. I mean, I enjoy the friends, just not taking a 4yo home on the bus after midnight on New Year’s eve. And frankly, I just want the world to disappear for awhile while I recuperate. Sigh.
And the 10yo doesn’t understand that we don’t have enough money to do all the things she wants to do on her birthday. In fact, I really shouldn’t be buying her a present, because I’m not sure the rent is all there. But I will get her something. Sigh.
2 sighs. That’s enough to get me booted offline.
