Neener, neener, neener!

You know why my life (as a stay at home mom) rocks today and yours (as a whatever it is you are) doesn't? For many reasons:

  1. I am typing in my bikini, catching some rays and sipping a smoothie. What are you doing right now?
  2. I can pick my nose, fart, accidentally bite my own finger while shoving licorice in my mouth and yell "Fu@k! Fu@k! Fu@k!" and nobody (over the age of four) will witness it because I'm in the comfort of my own home. I'm sure that Ella will have a new favorite word after that little incident!
  3. If I really wanted to, I could put all the kids down for a nap and catch a few winks myself. Is there nap time at your place of employment?
  4. I do not have to deal with crappy co-workers or bosses. I'm the boss and that's the way I like it.
  5. I can safely online shop without the fear of getting caught.
  6. My kids are at the age where I can bribe them to get me a cold drink, so I don't have to get up off my butt.

Yup, I'm lovin' my job today. I'm sure that tomorrow will be hellish, so I'm just going to revel in the joy and relaxation that I only occasionally feel in being a stay at home mom!

A bikini after 7 babies!! You are my new personal hero. What kind of voo-doo did you do to get back in a bikini and can I have your surgeon's number please :)
Gee here I am 2 years after my third baby and I am still sporting my maternity swimsuit. Clearly I am doing something wrong :)

Aw, MAN! I'm totally jealous!! I really could have used a nap today too. But that's okay. Just a few more years until the "right" fifth figure is in both our boys' college accounts. I get the choice of staying home after that, or to continue to work and get the house paid off. Either way, we're retiring in 7 years, which is when the advisor has estimated that the 2nd comma will appear in the retirement accounts!! (Then the boys get BOTH of us, ALL THE TIME!)
