The day has come where I never thought I'd say I feel like my mom. Tired. Just plain exhausted. Another week has whizzed by and we're almost 4 months into the year. Crazy. Absolute insanity. That's what a day in my life feels like.
You might say I'm a bit spoiled. I go to work full-time, Monday to Friday. My mother-in-law looks after Lil J during the week while I'm making the dough so that Lil J can eat the thousands of oranges he consumes in a week. I come home everyday and my mother-in-law most likely has food on the stove. So I sneak some. Why not right?! I'm always absolutely starving when I get home from work and a girl's gotta eat!
But I tell you - I am EXHAUSTED by the time Friday rolls around. Everything looks blurry. I'm moving in motions as the day dashes by. I slur my words to my boss, my colleagues, strangers, my hubby and my mother-in-law. I'm focused, and only focused, on getting home to my family to start the weekend. And by the time I get home, I'm ready to crash. Like right now. I'm sleep-typing. Yeah, that's right.
So I picture my mom sprawled out on the Lazy-Boy. And, now, I see myself doing the exact same thing.
Haven't I always said I would never be like my mom?
Well the day has come...

I hear you. I froze yesterday mid-convo for like a full minute trying to think of the word "ramen" it's mom-itis. You're like everyone's mom, haha! xoxo
