Continuing on with NaBloPoMo . . .
Today’s prompt is – What daily tasks take up the most of your energy?
I don’t feel as if I’m a very energetic person to begin with, which is unfortunate because I really need a lot of energy to keep up with two rowdy boys! But on the days when the boys are in daycare it takes up more of my energy. From the time I wake up I’m in a rush to get them off to preschool, get to work on time and then get on the road to pick them up. Then I have to get home and quickly get dinner on the table. It’s more stressful than a day when Naaman isn’t working. And stress can really drain you of your energy. I’m always worried – will I get to daycare on time to pick them up so they’re not the last ones there? I have a 30-45 minute commute, which just sucks. Traffic jams and mean drivers definitely drain me of my energy too. So I’d say daycare days are when I plop down in bed at the end of the day completely exhausted.
Yes. Workday mornings and evenings are SO SO SO HARD. Ugh. I have complained a lot to Nate about this and no matter how much prep work I do the night before, mornings when we have to be out the door at a certain time are rough!
