Need. To Survive.

Things I have done today:

- Take child to pediatrician due to scary health thingy that turned out to be nothing (thankfully)

- Run by seamstress to pick up item with repaired zipper (An old, ripped up sweatshirt of my dad’s that he cherishes. I could buy two new ones for what it cost me to repair the zipper.)

- Stop at crazy general store place to have house keys made for my children and mother (oh, and drawer organizers for bathroom because the toothpaste exploded and my 8 y/o decided she doesn’t want her toothbrush to be close to anyone else’s)

- Cash Christmas checks at bank (checks from my former mother-in-law made out to my kids that they want to spend at the mall this weekend)

- Swing by Invisible Fence to pick up new collar batteries (because I found one of my dogs across the street peeing on the neighbor’s mailbox)

- Drop prescription off at pharmacy (for sinus infection discovered at pediatrician visit)

- Swing by house to tell older child that smaller child and I are still alive and to pick up tax paperwork

- Complete 2011 taxes!!!

- Pick up prescription

- Run home to fix lunch and discover sink/dishwasher pipes are clogged and sink is filled with water and food from the disposal from two days ago

- Fix sink with bathroom plunger (now whole kitchen must be doused in gasoline and burned to the ground as I’ll never be able to eat in there again)

Things I have NOT done today:

- Showered

- Eaten

- Fed my children
