No time

As a 36 year old woman, wife, mom of 2, and full time teacher, there are many things in my life I do not have time for during the day.  I am on the move from the time I get out of bed at 5:30 am until I go to bed at night.  I work for 7.5 hours a day and then I rush out of work to pick up my girls.  They are the love of my life.  I can't wait to see them, hug them, kiss them, and ask them about their day.  After 2 different pick ups we head home to start our routine of homework, both on and off the computer, having time to play outside, and daily chores.  While the kids are doing their homework I am frantically helping them while throwing in a load of laundry, straightening up the house, picking up the girls clothes, putting clothes away, changing bed linens, and deciding on what to do for dinner.  After dinner we begin our bedtime routine and I hope the girls go fast enough throught their baths so we have time to snuggle, talk, and spend some quality time together before they go to bed.  After they are in bed I try to get a workout in, read a little of a book, or watch a television show.  In this craziness I call life, I do NOT have time to make new friends.  During the craziness of my day I am counting on my friends to be there for me, not to judge me, and most of all to have fun.  I pride myself on being a good friend and hope they feel I do for them in return of what I expect from a friend.  Today it is not quite 9:40 and I feel FINE.
