Why I haven't Updated This Blog Lately

Or a Day in the Life of A Working Mommy

7:30 Get up

7:45 wake up child

7:55 feed child oatmeal and fruit for breakfast

8:10 dress child, clean child's face, convince child that she cannot wear stained t shirt to school even if it is her favorite t-shirt in the whole world

8:15 remove t-shirt from child's hands

8:20 bring child to bus stop

8:22 attempt to convince child to wear hat in 30 degree weather

8:25 hug child and put hat on child's head

8:30 start work

10:15 break -- clean kitchen and living room

10:30 back to work

12:30 half hour lunch -- finish cleaning living room and bathroom and kitchen

1:00 back to work

3:45 break time and fetch child from bus stop time

4:00 back to work

6:00 finish work

6:30 go out to eat dinner

8:00 food shopping

9:30 come home and put groceries away

10:00 collapse in front of television

I have no idea how women who work out of the home manage to complete a day without a massive daily nervous breakdown.
