I am a lot of things. I am a chef, kleenex, sister, fashion coordinator (not by industry standards), Martha Stewart wanna-be, student, interior designer, doctor, mechanic, employee, wife, and most importantly, I am a mom. I work, I study, I take care of my family. I am a busy mom.
Caviat: I am not a good mom. Actually, I am a bad mom. I would name this blog "Bad Mommy (dot) com" but I think that would give my ego too much of a boost. I am the mom at the store who tells her kids "If you don't watch where you are going, and someone runs into you with their cart, I won't feel bad for you." I am also the mom who tells her kids to "Suck it up, buttercup." I am the mom that actually says the things that all moms are thinking in their lovely little Stepford Wives heads.
Ok, ok, I'm really NOT a bad mom. I'm a cool mom. I let my kids sleep in bed with me sometimes because I get lonely when my hubby is working 3rd shift. I sneak my kids cookies out of the freezer when the other isn't looking (but I do it equally so they are both in on the "secret" cookie action).
I have 2 kids. G is 10 going on whatever stage of puberty sucks the most. He has a PhD in everything and isn't afraid to tell you how much he thinks he knows. B is 7 and she is a delightful sort of privileged princess.
I am a busy mom. I work full time, but my husband works, like, a million hours a week-- which by default means that I am obviously not the breadwinner of this home. In between my bajillion things that I am doing with the kids, I am studying. I got knocked up when I was in college, and moved home to be a mom. Now that I'm married and have this freaking amazing life, its time to relive my college glory and finish up to get that overly expensive piece of paper with a pretty foil seal. The difference is, being a non-traditional student means I can study with a beer in my hand while wearing pajamas. I'm not always studying in my "free time." Sometimes I'm napping. I can't lie :)
I am a taxi cab. My kids are busy, and I freaking love it. 2 kids, 6 sports, but a million different directions. G is in Tae Kwon Do, Baseball, Basketball, and Band. B is in Tae Kwon Do and on an Elite Cheerleading Team.
So that is me. That is my life, and my family. I am a busy mom, and this is my diary.
