Shaved legs and wrinkles clothes

I am tired, I am exhausted and I am hot! Its only 3:30pm and I feel like I have been up since yesterday. I am contemplating on whether to take a quick power nap so I am ready for the kids when they come up the stairs or to just sit back and breath..at this rate the relaxing part is probably my best option since I know that once I lay my head down I wont be up for hours...As I inhale deeply I reflect back on my day and it all comes back to me....

I lay asleep, deep and peaceful lost in my dreams as I heard my name whispered softly as I wonder where the voice is coming from, I hear my door squeak open an I get up! "Ohhh Right!" I said as I remembered that she had to go into work this morning as I promised to lay by the kids till they woke up. As my cousin gave me a minute to gather my stuff and head into her room as she got ready, it dawned on me I had lunch plans today and that I really wont have that much time after I get the kids settled in with the nanny. As I run a mental check of the clothes I could possibly wear out I walked into my cousins room and got into bed.


It's 8:30am and I am standing in the pantry trying to decide whether to have cereal or toast as it dawned on me how tired I was. I thought it was going to be easy. Once I got to my cousins bedroom I immediately assumed that if I at least managed to get the baby back to sleep I would be able to catch a quick snooze before the older child got up, Unfortunately just as the baby drifted into sleep, the older one woke up and I knew my chance of snoozing was gone for the day. I tried to stay up but my eyes kept closing until I finally just got up and chased the little one around as he decided it would be fun to get into everything!I was frustrated! Can't he just nod off again? Geez! I am tired, but the more i chased him, the more excited he got because he thought it was a game! I finally got them dressed and ready to spend the rest of the day with the nanny as I sat and ate my cereal. I was planning my day, I was going to visit my girlfriend and then head into the city for lunch. "Drat!" As I ran my hands down my legs " I have to shave!" I quickly run up the stairs to head into the bathroom. Just as I take off my clothes it occurs to me I really have to iron my clothes! I hate ironing but I wasn't going to go into the city with hairy legs and wrinkled clothes.

I sit on my bed in my shorts and bra and it dawns on me. I didn't check to see if our lunch was still on for noon! As I lean over and type a message, I try to put my clothes together. "I am sorry I think I am going to have to cancel" the message read.
"What" I yell! as I sink into my bed with disappointment! Of course my immediate response to him was "ohh" as he continues to explain. "its not his fault!" I thought but my immediate reaction was upset and disappointment...I really hate to admit it but I had been looking forward to it. I always enjoy his company, he makes me laugh and our conversations are always fun. I guess I just had to deal it was just not going to be.
