The lull before the storm
I sit here this morning enjoying my coveted coffee waiting for the hurricane to hit.

Today both of my girls have their first soccer games of the season, Stanky's is her first game ever. Stank's game starts at 11:45 a.m., which means we have to be at the field by 11:15 a.m. Queenie's assuredly far more exciting game begins at 12:30 p.m. She has to be at her field, a different place entirely, by 12:00 p.m.

I'm assuming the second game will be over by 1:45 p.m. or so. Then - we have to be at a funeral, across town, by 2:30 p.m. Clearly, we will not be appropriately dressed. So we must rush home, change into dressy clothing, and dash across town in 45 minutes flat. That's assuming the game ends on time and I can get the kids to the car with minimal fuss.

Queenie has a birthday party to go to from 4 - 6 p.m. She RSVP'd for said party weeks ago and it's for her new soccer coach's daughter. Fortunately, it's located relatively close to the church we'll be at.

While I'm rushing to and fro today, I'll be doing so knowing that I'm coming home to a sink full of dirty dishes, debris littered floors, and piles (mountains, rather) of laundry to be washed, folded, and put away. Even as I'm typing this, the kids are clammering about asking for food and the phone is ringing.

Somebody hold me.
