Spoiled at home

I have come to the revelation that I am totally spoiled and cannot function well without Mike. Last night I had to drive both to and from AWANA, get the kids fed and to bed all by myself, lose half a nights sleep because I heard suspicious noises and I was trying to recall why we live in the pervert capital of the country and did I chain lock the back door. I don't know why I worry my 2 pitbulls would make short work of anyone trying to step foot in the house uninvited ;) Then I had to drag my sleep deprived butt out of bed, get the kids ready, let the chickens out, drive to preschool and then pick up from preschool... So at about 2:45 ish I had the grand idea that I would drag out a big bucket of Leggos, lock the doors (put the pitbulls on duty) and let the kids play leggos while I caught a nap on the couch. Yeah, that never goes too well for me...

Me: Liv you and Ethan play here quietly, I am going to take a little nap ( I am five feet away on the couch)
Liv: Yes mommy. (I fall asleep)
Liv & Ethan: AHHHHHHHH..crying..crying...AHHHHHHHHHHH...
Me: What's going on? Liv give him what he wants , just keep him quiet for 30 minutes..please!!(I fall back asleep)
door opening..
Me: Who's going outside???
Liv: I am going to see if a chicken laid an egg...
Me: NOOOO!
Liv: Ok mommy..(I fall back asleep)
sounds from the kitchen
Me: WHAT IS GOING ON?
Liv: We are just making a snack...
Me: NO, get back in the living room and play with the &%$ LEGGOS, NOW!
Liv; Yes, mommy (I fell back asleep)
Liv: Mom, it is three and a three and a three. Is that time for dinner?
Me: no, I will cook dinner in a little bit. ( I fell back to sleep)
Liv: Mom, shaking me, it is a three and a four and a one, is it now time for dinner?
Me: Getting up, Yes, Liv it is time for dinner and then you and your brother are going to bed

To get myself going I ate the rest of the artichoke dip and drank a glass of sweet tea. So Mike if I gain five pounds before you return, I am blaming it on the kids! Well I gotta go feed the dogs before they eat the neighbor's cat or some intruder.
