Busy, Busy, Busy Again

Okay, I know I write alot about how busy we are. Sometimes I just feel like I don't even get a chance to slow down. Of course, this is really my fault. The kids activities are not too much for me and really don't take too much time. Homeschooling a Kindergartner couldn't be easier. My problem is that I can almost not stand to be at home all day. I know women who love to be at home and doing things around the house. This is not me. It is very rare for me to be at home all day. This usually only happens when I am sick or one of the girls is very sick. I don't know why I am this way, but I think I always have been. The bad thing is that my housework suffers. I make sure that we have clean dishes, clean clothes, I cook dinner, etc. But I am really bad about just picking up. The girls get their toys everywhere and we clutter the tables with papers. This in turn makes it hard to sweep, mop, and vacuum. Then, I think that is one reason I stay away from the house. Because then I have the excuse that I wasn't home all day and therefore didn't have time to pick up. Also, my husband is the exact opposite of me. he prefers to stay home and often complains about how busy I keep us. I do try to plan for him to stay home so he can do work around the house, but I think he likes the excuse that "I keep him too busy" and that is why the work around the house doesn't get done. So I've let my house go this week and now I'm looking at it thinking I could get some cleaning done today. Except, we're fixing to go to bowling league, I still haven't homeschooled Miriam today, and then I'll have to cook dinner. Maybe tomorrow?
