Doesn't it feel like things get a little crazy when the weather warms up in the spring? Practice starts- for spring soccer, baseball, flag football etc etc etc. Times that by multiple children with multiple activities. And now the joys of yard work and gardening are added on top of the usual list of inside jobs like house cleaning, grocery shopping, laundry, meal preparation etc etc etc. And that's just the weekend chores. Notice I'm not even mentioning 'spring cleaning' (what's that?). Add in the additional responsibilities during the school/ work week and its enough to make you feel like your head is going to explode. Where do we find the time?!? Almost makes one pine for the dull dreary cold months of winter when snuggling up with a cuppa and fuzzy blanket in front of the TV to do some bingeing is totally acceptable. Almost.
