Baby Blues....

Or so I would like to believe.  I once again spent another day doing absolutely Jack Shit.  I think I need some kind of plan to get going.  I mean other than the whole FlyLady thing.  I know there is a ton of stuff on my TO DO list.  But I am a great list maker, and a poor list doer.

I did put all the Christmas crap away though.  That has to count for something.  Besides another item to do on my 'list'.  (clean out shed)

I also finally threw away my old baby bottles.  It was kind of a sad moment for me.  Almost bittersweet.  I am glad to have the cabinet space back, but it was like the end of an era.  I had my tubes tied about 18 months ago, a few months after the birth of my 3rd bio kid (a girl!).  I loved being pregnant.  I wish I could be pregnant now.  But that is normal.  My doctor told me that the number one complication from a tubal was regret.  I thought I was above it.  But I regret it.  Kinda.  I mean, I don't like closing the door on that part of my life, but in my head I know that I cannot rationally afford anymore kids.  But I miss the CHOICE.  I don't know if that makes sense.  Its sad to accept that I will never have another FILL IN THE BLANK of first moments once my daughter does them.

If I was a wine drinker, this is where I would pour myself a nice glass and drink my troubles away.  But I don't drink, or at least I don't drink more than once or twice a year.  So I am stuck trying to forget about it.  I don't know why a part of me wanted to keep those faded beatup bottles.  Maybe it was like holding on to a part of my babies even as they are growing up around me.  Ahhh... the joys and sorrows of motherhood.
