4 Things I've Quit Doing Since I Started Working Again

  • Wearing my hair down. My hair is never down anymore. I'm not even sure how long it is at this point. And honestly, since it has to be up for work, the longer the better. Do you know how hard it is to get short hair in a pony-tail?! I tried for a week. It was not fun. I'm finally able to get it into some resemblance of a bun. The great thing about this? Now I have TWO excuses as to why my hair is always a mess. Take that!


  • Shaving my legs. Sorry hubby. But it's so true. I'm always in khakis for work, so why bother shaving? No one is going to see all that hair. No one knows I've got Sherwood forest and the Hundred Acre Wood on my legs. So why spend the extra 10-15 minutes shaving? Answer to that is I don't. Kyle claims he doesn't mind. Part of me believes him. The other part of me thinks he's just saying that so he can still love on me. True or not, I'm running with it.

  • Staying up late. I have one day off a week and one day where I'm not scheduled before 10am. I'm usually at work by 8am, which means I get up at 6:30am. I'm NOT a morning person. Not by any stretch of the imagination. If I get less than 7 hours of sleep a night for more than a few days, I become a whole new level of bitchy. So what does that mean? I'm in bed by 10pm every night. I think in the past month, I've stayed up until 11pm twice. Yay for getting the sleep I need! Boo for not snuggling with Kyle as long. Again, sorry hubby.

  • Stressing about the laundry, the toys everywhere, and the toothpaste in my sink. Don't get me wrong. Kyle is amazing when it comes to keeping the house clean. It could always be worse. But since I've started working, my OCD cleaning needs have practically disappeared. I only do full blown cleaning frenzies every other week if not longer. But I also don't freak out if I see a mess when I get home. I know what it's like to stay home with my two monsters. I'm not going to judge. Are the kids alive? Yes. Is the house still standing? Yes. I call that a win.

Wow, I am impressed. I get headaches if the hair is up, so hats off to you there mate.

I didn't shave the legs all the time last winter, it was nice :)

I am a morning person, right now everyone is sleeping and I am wide awake :) Can't stay up much past 10 my eyeballs fall out.

WOW WOW I am so impressed by this, one day I will be like you. After a full day of working out of the home I come home and bust through the house. Yeah I know crazy, I just can't rest though.... Drives me nuts...

I want to be like you :)

I constantly have headaches, but I can't tell if that's from my hair, work, or the fact that I have two kids under three. LOL

It's more so I don't have the energy too much after I get my yoga pants on and sit down. As soon as my butt touches a chair, couch, or bed, I'm screwed.

    My name is Kristen and I suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder. This is my hysterical journey as a mom of two dealing with life twists and turns while trying to not let my "crazy" get too out of hand. I strive to be a happily depressed mom.
