{Parenting humor}
Your husband tells you he’s going away for a long weekend. You look at him and wonder if you smack him and pretend you’re cool with it. You chose to go with the ‘cool with it’ look. Inside you’re freaking out but also telling yourself you got this. Yeah right.
You forget about it because really, you don’t even want to think about being 24/7 alone with 2 small kids. Until the dreaded day comes. He leaves and here you are. Stuck with the 2 most precious and crazy beings you’ve ever encountered.
How do you survive?
You buy 500 lbs of coffee. You know you’re not going to sleep at all so might as well OD on coffee.
Buy 10 chocolate bars. Per day you’re alone. Because. Chocolate. Need I say more?
Buy a few bottles of wine because you need something to knock you out if you actually manage to get your kids to bed.
You hire a cleaning service because you’ve always wanted to do it and this is the perfect time. He can’t complain about you spending the money. Go ahead, call.
Get a pair of leggings and a comfy shirt. Realize this is what you’ll wear for the next 4 days.
Buy some dry shampoo so you can look as if you’ve showered because let’s be honest – ain’t nobody got time for a shower.
Go online and start buying stuff. Anything and everything. After all, he’s left you alone with 2 kids. You deserve it!
If you’re not into praying maybe it’s time you start if you want to survive this weekend. Hope for the best but expect the worst. And if all else fails, don’t worry, this is #momlife.
A little humor for you today, because if you can’t laugh at parenting then it’s not worth doing…
