Grrr.... I can't get a break!!!

I am always grateful and I so love my kids... But I REALLY need a break!!! I can't get anything done it seems..... my list of "to do's" is growing daily but the available time is not keeping up. Emily is becoming demanding of my constant presence with her and not allowing me to get things done. I managed to get 3 jars of pickled cauliflower done and 2 jars of bread & butter pickles done; but once again a jar broke and I lost one jar of pickles. I also got to blanch off the broccoli and managed to get the dishwasher loaded and our bed made, and a load of laundry done. That was all! I really need to get our kitchen floor mopped, it's just disgusting to me; but it kinda matches this disgusting carpet of ours. No matter how much I sweep and scrub this carpet, Emily's knees and feet are dirty from crawling on it!!I WISH I HAD HARD WOOD FLOORS!!!!!

I would imagine I will have to stay up till midnight again just to get something done. I tried desperately to have a few moments to myself and read (seeing as of how my book I took out from the library is due back on the 15th); which I tried to do last night. Not an easy task because I could hardly keep my eyes open to read!

Planning my shopping trip tomorrow to be most effective, if possible. I am also hoping I will have a chance to stop at the mall's Chick fil a and have lunch and maybe get to see my nephew! Will have to see how my day goes though.

I still have to work on my shopping list/budget for this week, before my trip so I don't over spend.

What I really really really wish is that I could just get some adult time with my husband. Go out. Maybe be like we use to be before the baby. I so miss that and feel like this is so playing on my psyche and our relations. I get so damn flustered by this and I feel like it's just ridiculous. Like unjustified that I feel like I NEVER get a day off!!!!!
