Things that make you go hmmm

This morning my daughter woke early and crawled into bed with me and my husband. We laid there talking when my daughter asked my husband when he got his tattoo. He told her a very long time ago. "when I was a baby?" He told her no when her brother was a baby. I told her that she hadn't been with us yet that is why her initial wasn't on the tattoo with the rest of ours. To which she replied "oh when I was still laying ....." Very confused look on her face..."where was I laying?" I told her I didn't know. Her respond "i was laying somewhere, then I started growing in your belly".
Really wish she could remember where she was laying. It would have been interesting to hear.

Work

Like I have mentioned before I am working 3 jobs at the moment. Even though two are part time, it is a lot.
I know this is why I feel so off kilter all the time. I don't get time to recharge.
The way it usually works out is I work 7 days a week. When ever I do have a day off I am to tired to do anything.
My full time job is a Monday - Friday job. With lots of "voluntary" and mandatory things out side of the regular working schedule. This creates a very busy week for me.
All would be fine if I had a break on the weekend's. But most often I do not. I am at my part time job. That job is based on demand. Most of the time its 4-6 hours a day. Other times it is longer. The longest being 11 and 1/2 hours.
So what is happening is I am always tired, and very grumpy. This schedule is also starting to take quite a physical toll on me. Not to mention the strain on my family life.
I am working three jobs for financial reasons.  Which are being alleviated.
So yesterday, when I went in to work for my part time job, I gave my two weeks notice. At first I felt bad, but honestly after the day I had yesterday, I know it was the right decision.

I am back, sort of

It has been a very long time since I posted. Life has been crazy to say the least. My mother now lives with us, I am currently working 3 jobs. One full time, one part time and one very part time.
My children have of course gotten older, and with that new issues lol. Parents understand that.
In general my life has been off kilter and out of wack for some time now.
There are things going on that I have no control over, but some things I do. So when I took a look at my life to see what could I do to get back to the person I used to be, my thoughts went to my blog.
It isn't like I had been doing it for long, or that a lot of people read it or anything. The simple truth is, I enjoyed writing it. So I have decided my first step would be to start it again.
Todays blog is just to get it started again. I had a few moments of peace, so I went for it. I will post more on how my life has been going and the effects it has had on me, soon. This is a promise I make to my self.
