My one bit of alone time was sitting in the parking lot at Costco. The kids had fallen asleep after a fun morning at the Tot Lot for a playtime hosted by my MOPS group. I'd hoped this would happen, and had my book in the car already. I was able to read a very funny book called "Didn't I Feed You Yesterday" by Laura Bennett.
The next me time hit at 9:30pm. I'd put Patrick to bed, nursed Fiona to sleep, taken the dogs for an evening walk, started a load of laundry, started the dishwasher, straightened up the kitchen, and generally put the house back together.
And no amount of warnings really prepares you for how darn hard it is. Which is why us moms are all up way too late. Because it's the only time we sometimes get.

You make me feel lazy, just trying to keep on top of everything with no children yet in the mix is challenging enough. I admire all that you are going through.
