Thx for sharing your insane day. No wonder you are so skinny. I hope your muscle relaxer helps you w/ whatever it is you have going on. I had to take one once and realized it's not the drug for me. It gave me restless leg syndrome.

Nicole said...

no no no... is that what i have to look forward to? oh my gosh jen, my favorite part was the fastest 15 minutes of your life. how on earth did you accomplish all that in 15 minutes!? insane, hopefully today you're taking it EASY! although anything's easy compared to that day.

Suzi said...

That is exhausting to imagine!! I would need muscle relaxers if i were you too, hope they help!

We should all post what we accomplish in one day every once in awhile to remind us of how amazing Moms are, (and to remind us to slow down!). You are doing a great job.

That is seriously the most amazing post I've ever read! I hope you feel better & at least you had a magazine at the end of the day to read! One day when the kids are older and read this...they'll be truly grateful for all that you do!
