One of these days my head is gonna blow

Family life is usually a bit  hectic, often chaotic and sometimes downright crazy.  This week is proving to be one of those weeks that will test my sanity and stamina.

Here is what it looks like on Cozi:

Yep, every night this week has a minum of two things going on, and Wednesday and Thursday are complete cluster-effs.  Aidan has his provincial testing at school starting this week, so he's stressed about that.  And in case that's not enough for the little dude, he also has to wear a Holter monitor to school for the first day of testing. (Mom, don't get stressed - I'm only mildly concerned.)

Then we have the Wednesday night gong-show in which Chris and I try to juggle swimming lessons, and three kids soccer events at three different fields. And oh yeah - we're each coaching Quinn and Shannon's teams because we're gluttons for punishment (not really - we like doing it and the kids are tons of fun)

We have soccer, field trips, Wacky Hair day, pizza lunch, a road-trip for Chris, a work audit, piano lessons, hockey..... someone pass me the valium!

I know, I know, I'm bitching and moaning, when really the only person I have to blame for all this madness is myself.  Well..... sort of.  Who knew that everything would happen the same week, and that the week of May 21 was deemed: "Vortex of madness and mahem for the James clan" 

Did I  mention the killer solar flares that are apparently targeting Earth?

What's next? Locusts?!?!

Thankfully I have a girls weekend planned starting Saturday.  Me thinks I'm going to need some serious girl power to recover from the madness!
