Another day

Well after a day of doing nothing even though I meant to do something I have to stop and ask what did I get accomplished today?? hmmm...I got my daughter dressed, no wait, my hubby did that...ummm I fed the goats, dogs, cats, rabbits and watered everyone. Went to MOPS (mothers of pre-schoolers) and hung out with "the girls" all morning; then again...I held babies that weren't mine all morning. Came home and made lunch for my hubby and vaguely got some resemblence of a kitchen back from the dishes and dirt, which took till 2:30. Then of course I had to check my internet stuff, darn addicting thing. Then went to town and had an early dinner with my truck-driving uncle who happened to be passing through. Then to the library before it closed to check out the all important books that I don't have time to read anymore (there was a time in my life I did and I haven't gotten used to the fact that I don't now). Then home. Put my daughter to bed, again with my hubby's help. Then do some more "work" on the internet. Then refeed and water the animals...the final answer...I've done absolutely NOTHING today. AAAAAAAAHHHHHH. My husband wonders why I don't feel like I get anything done; I don't. *sigh* maybe tommorrow will be better. My goats stand outside and beller at me "come play, come play" and I look at them and wish I could. Anyone know any tricks for teaching a stubborn spoiled (beautiful, wonderful, adorable, charming) little girl that it's okay to play in the dirt, not just in the house??

It will come with time. She is young, you aren't really supposed to get much done when they are young. I didn't start really getting stuff done until mine was 3. And at 9, there are still days that are all about him and nothing gets done. It's ok, everything will still be there. Maybe when it gets warm, she'll like the outside better.

I know, and I love her to death. Sometimes it would be nice though to feel like I might get chickens and pigs in this lifetime, not to mention a horse lol.

You will. Time goes so quickly. I know it doesn't feel like it now but it really does. I can't believe mine is 9 already! I really miss those days when I couldn't do anything because I had to hold him all day. At the time I couldn't wait for it to end, but now I look back on those days as the good old days.

I think I understand, I hated being tied down to the chair when she was first born with her since I was so active before but now I cant help thinking that at least I got the time to read then lol. I do enjoy my days with her though, I guess people are just never satisfied :)
