you know it's been a rough week when...

- you just realized you haven't showered in three days.
- you can't win at Solitaire, even when you cheat.
- you're so desperate for chocolate, you sneak chocolate chips from the pantry.
- the kids are complaining about having no clean socks or underwear.
- every time you sit on the toilet seat, it's wet.
- a pile of 2x4's falls on your leg, leaving you with a bruise the size of a softball.
- you try to do a job that would take your brother an hour and it takes you all day.
- floss? what's that?
- you forget to pay the utility bill and the phone bill.
- you go over your cell phone minutes due to some unknown glitch that no one can explain to you.
- there is nothing in the house to make for supper, so you're forced to get creative with stewed tomatoes.
- you find a half-melted sucker in the bottom of your knitting bag stuck to a hat you just made for a baby gift.
- wherever you go, that's where the party's not at.
- the olympics are keeping you up way too late.
- the kids are getting you up way too early.
- the garden hasn't been watered in a week and a half and you really don't care.
- you realize that school's about to start and you haven't even begun buying supplies like pencils and glue.
- you think to yourself that the kids don't deserve pencils and glue when they lose everything anyway.
- boy #4 has diarrhea.
- boy #4 just ate cat food.
- boy #3 was caught licking dirt off his bike.
- you go to menard's covered in sawdust and you really don't care.
- you lost your discover card, somewhere in the house.
- then you lost your keys.
- you still have to can tomatoes, make cucumber relish, finish shower walls, paint a piece of trim, make two baby gifts, make two meals for new mothers, paint a vanity, glaze some closet walls - all by saturday.
- you realize that hubby is going on a four-wheeling trip sunday and guess who gets to plan the meals/pack the food.
- you need a vacation, but don't even know where you'd like to go.
- you really need a sauna.

Is that enough? :)
