Need a break
Some days I want to scream, holler, and I need a break.
Raising two children, who require constant attention, in addition to attending
graduate school, requires a lot of patience, understanding, and maintaining my
temper. Some days I want to snap in two, dealing with both boys and trying to
complete schoolwork. Oh yeah I still have to deal with the other relatives, who
live here (mother, niece, great niece, uncle, the occasional nephew, and the
rest, who show up). My only break is at church, provided my children act right
and the early childhood department does not find or page me. Other than that,
where I go, the kids go. If I go to the potty, there is a high chance, Brad
will knock on the door or come in, if I forget to lock the door. At other
times, Kalen (and/or my great niece) is in their rockers, while I bathe, because
I do not want Brad to mess with them, while I take a quick shower.
These children, school, church, and internet are my only
sources of entertainment. I do not date, smoke, or have sex (by choice). I only
had 2 samples of free liquor at HEB within the past year. I just want to find a
place to scream, to get a release, without going more crazier than I am right
now.
