I think staying at home has made me lose my mind. Seriously, no joke here's a few of my symptoms so you can judge for yourself.
1) I get excited about poop. I get excited when Josie decides to poop in the potty. It's a major ordeal in our house and it doesn't happen very often. Since we use cloth diapers, I get excited with Katie's poop is just the right consistency to dump nicely into the toilet. I get excited when Elizabeth poops in general. (Katie only pooped once a week as a baby and Elizabeth only poops every few days, so I worry in between her bowel movements). Finally, I get excited for the day when I get to poop in the bathroom all by myself...wishful thinking, I know.
2) I fight with Josie about whether or not I can sing along to Bucky the Buckin' Bull. We listen to Merry Goes the Round by Jewel in the car pretty much all the time. The girls' favorite song is about a Bull that doesn't want to buck, and I often find myself singing along. Sing I love to sing and that's pretty well all I get to hear, I just go with it. Unfortunately, Josie thinks only one person can sing along to the radio at a time, and it's never my turn!
3) I eat chocolate in the closet. If the girls can hear, see, or smell chocolate they want it. I've learned I really don't like to share. As a result, I eat chocolate in the closet.
4) I have full on adult conversations that I can't remember. Daniel will call me during the day, or I'll make plans to do something an completely forget about it. Last week I called Dan at work to give him some news (I can't remember what it was...see what I mean) then I called him back 10 minutes later to tell him the same thing, oops!
5) I hear things. I wake up startled rather frequently thinking I hear the door opening next door and I have to go defend my home from the little invaders that get into everything. But there's not anyone out there, and the invaders are fast asleep in their beds.
