I JUST CAN’T TODAY

Do y’all ever have those days where everything just seems to take 18 times as long as “normal”?? Fuck…..it’s been one of those days. Donnie took a late nap, then, of course, he got up late. And guess what that means??— yep, he got to bed late…..like laaaaaaate. I think it was close to 10pm when he went to sleep. Ugh….toddlers need a ton of sleep— I’m well aware of this, but sometimes your nights just don’t go as planned. And you know what??— that’s fucking OK. Of course, it’s OK NOW— now that I’ve gotten him to bed. Shit, man, now my nerves can chill for a bit.

Moms of toddlers, y’all can probably relate— does your toddler fight you when it’s time for teeth brushing? Not like they’re punching you (well, kinda….lol), but more like putting up resistance. Omg…..fucking WHY???? Why the fuck does Donnie have to fight me with such simple things like teeth brushing??? It’s a rhetorical question— I’m aware that this is what toddlers do, but FUCK ME!! It truly is exhausting. I plopped myself, face down on my bed tonight after Donnie was giving me resistance to teeth brushing— and I started talking to God. Donnie knows when I’ve reached my limit— he knows, man. And he finally gave me a break, calmed down and let me brush his teeth. Praise fucking Jesus.

Y’all, I need a vacation. Ok, I gotta wash my face and go downstairs to make sure Kahlua hasn’t pooped on herself. Love y’all. Hope y’all have had a fab weekend! 🖤
