Domestic rantings

So, how is that the top rack of the dishwasher can be full the second that the last load was emptied?  I mean, seriously...I unloaded the diswasher and once I loaded all the sippy cups, coffee mugs, snack bowl and little plastic plates the top rack was full again?  Why didn't I know about the dishwasher with separate drawers before I bought this one??  Can I justify running a load with 1 or 2 plates on the bottom with the random knife or fork and a fully loaded top rack?  And what is it that makes the top rack so safe, anyway?  Are my coffee mugs going to shatter if I wash them on the bottom?

Obviously I'm a little disillusioned with my dometic divahood today.  Sometimes it feels like my life is a never-ending serious of dirty dishes, dirty diapers, dirty laundry, dirty house, dirty mommy (who has time to shower with all these other things to clean?).  Don't get me wrong, I love my boys and I am so grateful that I'm able to not work outside our house...but what I wouldn't give for a really tough accounting issue to deal with somedays instead of a 13 week old who refuses to go to bed at night (like I had last night), you know what I mean?  Does that make me a bad mom?  Those are the things that no one tells you when you're having kids - someone needs to write a book with all the things you need to know - it's not perfect, poop on clothes happens, hating your life happens, loving your life happens...

Enough out of me for now, I think I might actually get a shower this morning if the monkeys will cooperate.

Attitude of gratitude, attitude of gratitude...chant it with me...
