It’s Only Tuesday…
But I Swear It’s Friday in My Soul
Some days feel like a montage from a sitcom where the laugh track is my inner monologue, and yesterday was one of them. Mariah, my 15-month-old, kicked things off by absolutely crushing her checkup like the baby CEO of milestones. I mean, she’s out here thriving. But as much as I’d love to just bask in her tiny glory, my day was just warming up.
Traffic: The Universe’s Way of Saying, "Reflect on Your Life Choices"
Cue the hour-long commute to work, where I bonded with my car radio and became way too invested in a DJ’s dating drama. Then came a full eight-hour workday, filled with productive human things like emails, meetings, and wondering if I’d remembered to thaw the chicken. The drive home should’ve been a breezy hour but turned into a 90-minute existential crisis, courtesy of traffic. Did I use that time to ponder the meaning of life? Nope. Just sang off-key to Taylor Swift and questioned why I never became a yoga instructor in Bali.
Why Do One Thing When You Can Do Five?
Once home, you’d think I’d relax. Ha! That’s cute. Instead, I stared down my gray hairs like they personally insulted me and decided to dye my hair while watching a Zoom call for my side hustle. Multitasking queen? More like a juggler with an identity crisis.
While this was happening, Presley, my enthusiastic storyteller, decided to give me the unabridged version of her weekend with Mimi. Pirate ships? Check. Beach adventures? Double check. A 45-minute recap of every grain of sand she touched? Oh, you bet. I adore her passion, but by bedtime, I was ready to submit her for a TED Talk.
And That Was Just Monday.
Today? Same chaos, different vibe. The day started at 7:30 a.m. with a school meeting for Presley. We’re working on accommodations for her dyslexia and ADHD, but math remains her nemesis. Thanks to dyscalculia, numbers for her are like trying to decipher ancient hieroglyphics. But we’re in this together, battling jellyfish math one accommodation at a time.
Meanwhile, my house looks like a tornado threw a party and forgot to clean up. The car? Desperately whispering “oil change” every time I start it. My inbox? A digital wasteland of unopened emails. Somewhere in this mess, I realized I’m a Type B mom who occasionally dabbles in Type A tendencies, mostly by accident.
My Life? A Three-Ring Circus (Minus the Popcorn)
Funny thing is, I don’t even notice how wild my life is until I explain it to someone. Their wide-eyed, "Are you okay?" stares tell me I might be doing the most. But hey, it’s not my first rodeo.
Oh, and let’s talk about last year, when I was juggling seven kids under one roof. SEVEN. Mariah’s two older sisters were with us, which turned my house into a live-action episode of Survivor: Parent Edition. Compared to that, my life now feels like a wellness retreat. (Okay, a wellness retreat where the yoga mats are covered in crumbs and someone’s always yelling, “Mom!”)
Business Hustle Meets Circus Energy
Sure, life is chaotic, but here’s the plot twist—I’m thriving. Between traffic jams, jellyfish math, side gig Zoom calls, and bedtime TED Talks, I’m building something bigger. My side hustle isn’t just a “hustle”; it’s my ticket to something extraordinary. Because let’s be honest—gray hairs and traffic jams don’t pay the bills, but building a business that fits into my circus? That’s gold.
So here I am, wrangling kiddos, dodging gray hairs, and hustling like the boss of my own three-ring show. It’s messy, it’s loud, and it’s mine. And honestly? I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Moral of the Story?
You can juggle it all—life, family, business—if you’re willing to embrace the chaos and laugh at yourself along the way. After all, even if it’s only Tuesday, it’s always Friday in my soul. 🌟
