Today I celebrate a mommy milestone. After years of anticipating the day when all my children would attend school giving me some much needed and deserved mommy time, I have achieved such. Now only one question remains, what the hell do I do with myself? Of course there is always housework, I have more than enough online work to keep busy and I can finally make those uninterrupted telephones calls but hey wait that’s no fun. So I climb the stairs to enjoy a shower without my three year old peeking in to make sure I was washing my hair correctly. I then run a batch of laundry taking the time to actually sort the colors as most days I just throw in whats right in front of the washer. I then sort through all my junk mail that’s been piling up on the microwave cart, discovering some great deals on pizza for dinner tonight because you know after a morning like this cooking will not be an option.

The house is quiet, I have to turn the radio on just to make some noise because the only quiet time that exists in my house is from the hours of 10:00 pm to 5:00 am while I sleep, and that even gets interrupted almost nightly. I have not had the opportunity to enjoy peace and quite like this for 14 years now and I’m bored. I’m going crazy. I am just going to say it, I miss my kids and it’s only been 2 hours since I loaded them on the bus. I now try to plan what I am going to do with myself for the next 1 ½ hour until they get home.
