My Comfort Zone
Lately, I am finding myself heading to my computer when I feel stressed or just want a break and get away from everything. Is that weird or what? I feel like my comfort zone (as of lately) is my computer. Even if I don't exactly need to do anything. I'd try to check emails, check blogs, surf the net or write a post (like I am doing right now!). I do however, DO a lot of work on my computer -- mainly for work, and I do a lot of banking online, my accounting is done thru the computer with my accounting software, I do most of my shopping online, etc.
I can't exactly get out of the house and drive somewhere because I don't have my own vehicle. And besides, I don't really feel like driving especially when I am stressed.
So right now... my computer will do fine and keep me company.

Today I am feeling exhausted. I guess that is part of being a Mom to 2 very active and inquisitive kids. Aside from being a stay-at-home-mom, having a part-time job can be quite taxing. Not to mention all the household chores that comes with being a wife and the Woman-of-the-House.
I was able to get a couple loads of laundry done, folded but not put away yet! Actually, I have a basket of laundry sitting beside me as I type in hopes that I fold while surfing the net and chatting to some friends and family online.
Sometimes, the pressures of running a household can get overwhelming. It feels like you keep working, but your work never gets done. This is so true with having 2 kids. You clean one room, and then as soon as you get to the next, the room you just cleaned is a mess again. Well, I'm not complaining... I love that fact of having kids and the fact that they are happy, healthy and active. They are pretty good with keeping their toys away (if and when you tell them). It doesn't happen automatically yet. But we're working on it. They're still too young to get the concept yet, I think.
I feel at a loss right now, my oldest is 2 years and I am wondering... should he be knowing his alphabet's by sight and know how to at least write them? When do kids usually learn to do those? I guess it is just because I hear from some mom's that they did those with their kids and that their kids knows how to read and write their ABC's at 2. Well, to be truthful... I really haven't worked with him on that as much as I want to. Is it generally true that boys have a shorter span of attention? It sometimes frustrates me when we play "school" that I cannot keep him interested in what I am trying to show or teach him for more than 10 minutes. I feel such an insufficient mom sometimes.
But well... I can always be better. They say, the biggest room for change is improvement (or something like that). So, I guess I will just have to keep trying.
