total mental breakdown in progress

Just wanted to let you know (so you know you are not alone) I am having an official MBD (mental breakdown day). Don't have to fill you in on the details right now but suffice it to say ... tired mom, tired kids (after a late night at IKEA with the whole fam last night), just moved into a new house, stuff everywhere, shiloh working a lot, etc. I don't know when I will have a chance to give full disclosure either here or on my Tales from the Motherhood blog. Going to a women's conference this weekend (starts tonight) at my church. Don't even feel like going so that means I really need to go.
But just be sure that there was a phone call to Shiloh that went like this, "I need you to come home right now."
He was at our old house, which we closed escrow on today. He was walking through the house video taping it for us to look back on. I think I pretty much screwed up that footage as he rushed through it to get home to his totally desperate wife.
"I am about to have a total nervous breakdown." Picture me crying with baby crying in background. The other two kids were at a friend's house (thanks Marissa).

Mother's Day Card Mishap

You know you are a desperate mom when...

You pick out this great Mother's Day card for your mom. When you show it to your husband he says, "You know it says 'From your son.' on the inside, right?"


"Ummm.... no. I missed that. And I missed the picture of the little boy on the front too."

Not that I wouldn't pick out a card like that and just cross out the son part and put daughter (which I did). I would totally do something like that on purpose. But I didn't do this one on purpose. Need. More. Sleep. Too much on my plate (and not just the food) right now. Brain is... missing. Please help.
