Another One Bites the Dust

The Weekend Battle:

Time and time again I look forward to the weekend.  I am not sure why… I stay at home all week with the baby.  I just look at it as a time to get things done.  All week I put things off and tell myself, “this weekend I will do it.”  The weekend comes and the weekend goes and I never get anything done.  I am not sure why it is that I cannot accept the fact that the weekend is a busy hectic time in which nothing can get accomplished.

I think that my delusion stems from the belief that over the weekend I will be able to get something done because I will have help.  There are three other people in my family who are more then capable of helping out.  There are two kids and then there is that husband of mine.  Why is it that I still am not able to get anything done.

So here we are in the beginning of another week.  The laundry pile is even bigger then it was last week, the kids rooms are now to the point that I cannot tuck them into bed and the living room looks as if a bomb has hit.   I guess that what needs to happen is that I have to stop believing that the weekend is a time to accomplish anything!  It is a time to wreck things not a time to clean, organize or work as a team to achieve anything.   All we can do is play and have fun with one another.  I guess I will have to work harder this week rather then this weekend.
