I am so done!

I have always been a busy body. Doing everything and going every where. Well no more! I can't hack it anymore. It's exhausting! I signed the kids up for swim lessons and so that also included the boy I babysit and tagging along his infant sister. Boy did I over extend myself (as my husband says). The first day was chaos. The boy and infant were late in drop off. I made the mistake in trusting boy to behave and change quickly on his own with Charlie in the boys locker room. They were loud amplified by the acoustics of the metal room. I had to send them back twice to get there clothes, shoes, and towels, (that makes three). Once in the water all was well. Until the storm rolled in and knocked the power out 15 minutes before the end of class. In I went to change the infant's diaper. Then onto the pool deck to check on the kids. Bina had to use the bathroom. Soon my voice was amplified by the metal lockers as I forced her onto the automatic flushing toilet (her nightmare) with now a screaming baby. Who seconds after was taken by a strange, offering her help. My brain split in two. "Thank you so much!" "Oh no! I don't know who you are!"

So much to say and not enough time.

Haha! Sounds like a fiasco, but I know how you feel. I took my kids to swimming lessons already in their suits each day and took them home wet. That way we didn't have to deal with changing at the pool!
