That Lost Hour...

I am not quite sure what happened to our clocks after we went through the Daylight Saving change but I am fairly certain that I have a permanent 23 hour day. I lose that hour EVERY SINGLE DAY between 5:00pm and 7:00pm. Where the heck does it go? Is it just me?

I have always looked forward to the time change but this year, it seems like it isn't working out for me. I could blame it on work but HELLO, I have been working almost four months now and this is a new problem.

I feel like we are on fast-forward from the time we come into the house. I have also been desperately tired so it's good that Mike has been on a day schedule because he can take the boys out to play while I get dinner finished--he gets home before me so he has been starting dinner prep (SO awesome).

I dread finding out his new schedule because if he is working 2nd shift (2p-11p) then I am totally screwed!

In daycare news, we have a "teacher conference" next week to go over Michael and Liam's recent evaluations. I am interested to hear how they are doing in terms of development, etc. I kind of already know the gist of it but it will be cool to hear details and to get another perspective.

I have some ideas finally coming into my mind regarding posts. I just have to curb my need to spend time doing NOTHING on Facebook when I could be reading, commenting and posting right here. I mentioned before that the mindless nature of Facebook has been SO appealing to me. Time to get the brain back in gear.

Both boys are sleeping and tomorrow is Friday and those are HUGE positives in my book :)

I am contemplating a return to work next school year and honestly? This is the exact feeling I worry about. There just aren't enough hours in the day, ever. (I don't say that to make you feel badly about working, I'm trying to empathize, but probably doing it poorly!)

The time change is making it hard for me to get the kids to bed on time because I look outside and DO NOT REALIZE how late it's getting.

I KNOW with the lost hour. How does that happen? Sometimes I LOVE IT (yay! bedtime's almost here!) and sometimes I hate it.
