Is relief soon coming my way? Only 4 more days until school starts? Yipee! Last night as I plopped into bed Adam asked if I was exhausted. "hmm," I thought. It's not so much a physical feeling as a mental one. Tuesday was my first day back to my full daycare schedule and at one point I had 17 kids here (and a few moms too!). The rest of the week it'll only be 8 but that is more than enough. Too many actually. I had to make sure I was sufficiently stocked with diet coke because I don't even have enough seats in the van for an emergency trip to BJ's. Today we have an open house at the kids school and I'm worried if I take Ian he's going to have his "I want to go to school" meltdown. These meltdowns can seriously last hours (like his 2 hour "I want to go to school" meltdown yesterday) and I'm not sure I have the mental strength to handle it. The other kids, however, are a little anxious about starting a new school and would like to go check it out. Millie is especially nervous. She's worried about lunch and restrooms and such. The guilt in me wants to make sure this year goes as smooth as possible for her since I am the reason she is switching schools. So, I'm sure I suck it up and go but I'm sure I'll pay for it later. Too bad the rest of my day is just to busy to simply run away. Maybe while I'm at walmart I'll invest in some ear plugs! Yay for school!!!

2 people not afraid to say something:
Hip!Hip!Hooray!! I can't wait 'til Monday! You are so amazing, I'm barely (or should I say bearly-with the way I've been growling) making it with my own punks, I can't imagine 17!! (or even 1 extra:)
I understand the whole mentally exhausted feeling. I'm there!
