Not always as it seems

This looks to me like cereal, cottage cheese and apples

It's yogurt that was frozen(not the fro-yo I would like), white peaches and granola.

Better than it looks, right?

I know I don't look like a chick that can runs much less can run 3 miles.

I can!

Football for a 5 year old? Practice 3 days a week 1.5 hours each!  That's a lot huh? Too much?  Not for Austin!  Maybe he'll get tired. Eh, probably not.

At practice they tell us we need a practice jersey, mouth guard, chin strap and practice pants with pads.  They say don't get the set because it's cheaper.  They tell me to get my husband to take the pads in and out for me to wash them.  Husband? I don't have one of those... now what?  And even if I did- why do you assume I am the one doing the laundry?  From the looks of it I am the only single mom on the team.  Aaaaawkward... 

It's one thing to be single and it's another to be a married mom...  but it's so weird to be a single mother.  How do I date and get that period of time where I am all into that person?  I am all into my kids.  I just don't see how it will ever happen.  I love how much we are doing and I love our little life.  I just can't help but think about what it could be like to have another adult to lean on while I do all this.  Someone's lap for me to lay my head on while we are at the drive-in.  Someone to help me with the effin pads for his pants.  Someone to help me get them ready in the morning.  Just someone...

As if I didn't have enough going on, I'm adding more.  I know I can handle it though.  Full time job and full time school?  Too much? Not for me.  It's hard for me to get stuff done unless I have "too much" going on.  If I think I have more than enough time I tend to procrastinate. 

I got dressed this morning, normal clothes, and I feel blah.  I get to work and he tells me I look good.  He always makes me smile.  I am thankful for him and all the other people in my life that make everything easier to handle. 

Who makes you smile?
