After Christmas Crash

It really is a bit of a crash after Christmas isn't it? My kids are in sugar induced hyperactivity on Christmas day and there is usually still a bunch of candy for them to stay on the sugar induced high the day after Christmas. Today though it's a whole different world. The candy is gone, dad is back at work and all of a sudden four kids all need mom at the same time. Of course I am looking around trying to figure out what project I want to tackle first- the laundry that's piled up from the weekend, the tree that is dieing in the corner and needs to be undecorated, the rooms that are a mess and need to be cleaned up and toys sorted so there is room for the new toys...

Nothing on my list will get accomplished today and I was getting upset about it. I was starting to stress over why oh why I can't ever get anything done around here. But this Blog is theraputic. Now all of a sudden it doesn't really matter. I'll take another day and sit and play with the kids, watch some movies and tv, play some games and the other stuff will keep. I think we've got another 2-3 days worth of clothes to wear. If they don't match the greatest that's okay because we aren't planning on going anywhere... lol! The toys can be sorted next week just as easily as this week and we'll just have to make sure we clear a path in the rooms till then. The tree is a bit of a fire hazard in the making so we'll have to get to that sooner than later, but I think we'll be fine for another day or two.
