The Boisvert Life

I used to scoff when I heard stay-at-home-moms say that they had the toughest job in the world…..
Ok, so I’ve changed my tune a little bit. Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes….blah blah blah. But it’s true! It’s really exhausting not ever getting to leave your job/workplace, and trying to get the day-to-day chores and such done as well. I mean, imagine staying where you work right now, 24-7! Not a pretty thought is it? And just think, you can slack off if you want to while you’re there! A little tetris here, some solitaire there, the boss will never know….. Well let me tell you, my boss KNOWS if I’m slacking off on my job! She lets me know she knows too……just screams and screams and screams. Add in a little flailing of the chubby arms and legs, and I’m back to work. Don’t get me wrong, I love this job, but if you want to know what it’s like to only get to take a shower when your nose tells you it’s time, become a mother. (Ok, a little graphic, I do appologize, but I have to give you an extreme example so you’ll really get the jist of what I’m saying)
I’ve been trying to do the little projects around our house that need doing before we put the house up for sale, but it seems to be taking ten times longer than it should. And every weekend, I figure, hey, Barney will be here all day, so he can either help, or watch Lindsay for me for a bit so that I can get some of this stuff done and put this darn house on the market already! However, every weekend, there either seems to be some sort of obstacle to completing my tasks, or we’re headed off to another state! Barney was really sick this past weekend, so instead of him watching the girlie for me, I was watching the girlie, as well as him! Tasks completed: 0
Hopefully it won’t be August before we can finally try to find a buyer and get ourselves into a nicer home.
