My day began at midnight
Like a dumbass I was up
Consuming beer and pepperoni
To increase the size of my butt
Fell asleep at 2:30
With a sick baby in my bed
…very little rest
Being kicked in the throat and head
Woke after hitting snooze
Barely sleeping before
Peeling myself out somehow
Feeling like a worn out whore
Kids barely awake
Shoved off to school
Paid some bills
Cried like a fool
I survived somehow
3 grueling hours
The baby finally crashed
I got a 2 hour nap….power
The power…..
All in my head
I still looked like shit
Still felt dead…….
Rescued the children
Did this and that
Then home to eat
Surprisingly…..not crap
Back out to swim
YMCA
Put on a suit
To scare the people away
Got a kid’s hair cut
Visited a friend
Back at 9:30
Will the day ever fucking end?
Finally asleep
All in their beds
Writing this bullshit
So it can roll through your head
Drinking again
A sedative for me
Hoping to crash soon
No seeing midnight this eve!

Shit do happen and will happen again, but tomorrow is another day. I loved the poem and the good humor with which it was written.

UGH. OK, I was a single mom of two, and my daughter is a single mom (who happens to be dealing with a sick 2 1/2 year old this week.) I’m TOTALLY feeling your pain here. Hope you have a better day today! (And just subscribed to your blog….looking foward to keeping in the loop with you, NaNoNonsense or not!!!) xox

Everyday is an adventure, which I’m sure you know. Thanks for taking a chance and following me. I’m just getting my feet wet here, but it feels great. Good luck with NaNo. This is my first run at it and it’s not looking good for me.

I give you mad props
That it spite of all the shit
You took time to exercise
And got on with it
And then you wrote a poem
That was funny and didn’t stink
My point is as follows:
You’re better than you think
