One Venti double shot skinny vanilla latte, please!

Today I just feel like venting about how tired I am and how much there is to do in the next 24 hours. I'm about to go into work for my third shift in a row, I'm super tired because I've only gotten about 4hrs of sleep yesterday and today and tomorrow is Taylor's 7th birthday. I tried to make chocolate chip cookies for his class tomorrow b/c they are his favorite and even though Taylor informed me that "Mommy you are the best chocolate chip cookie maker in the world," Rob said they were a little overcooked and maybe we should just buy a cookie cake. :-(

Night shift is rewarding because you get a little extra time with your kiddos in the afternoon that you normally wouldn't get working 12 hr days. But by the third night the house is a disaster and you are running on fumes.

For some reason I think I'm superwoman when I make plans. I planned Taylor's birthday party for tomorrow afternoon at 3pm after working three in a row. So if I can just get through the next 24 hours without a meltdown then I will be doing ok. God has blessed me with a great husband who is going to make some descent break and bake cookies tonight, go to Sam's for the party food and my sister Traci is has gone to the party store for the supplies and ordered the balloons.

So it will take a very large cup of coffee with my very own nonfat vanilla creamer to get me moving tonight. Did I mention my third shift it's also my turn to be in charge?

Will post about Taylor's party this weekend. I can't believe he is 7 years old.
