What happened!

It all went so fast and I have no idea how it could happen. This morning I was talking to my co-worker in Osby and telling her how nice it felt to have the day off today and tomorrow. I was also telling her that even if somebody called and asked if I was free to come and work for them I would say no. I drove to the store and while I was picking up breakfast rolls, my phone rang in my pocket. I picked up and a voice in the other end was asking if I could come work tomorrow in Markaryd.... and what happened.... instead of saying NO I hear myself asking... how many hours? When do I start? When do I get off? And after that I can hear myself saying...."sure, I'll be there" and I actually sound like that's the best offer I've gotten during my entire life. WHY? It's official.... my brain and my mouth are not connected to eachother.

Well... I guess I'll have lots of fun getting to know new kids tomorrow but I really neaded some time off as well. Why am I so eager to please? It must be something in my genes.... I'll have to blame my parents for this one I think =) Why do they have to be so service minded and why didn't it skip one generation? I wonder if I could take some class in "learning how to say no"?

Next time I'll definately say no (or maybe not.... I guess I'm worried that if I say no there won't be a next time so I will probably say YES for the rest of my life)

Oh my....

... how stressed out and tired I was when I posted here yesterday. I could hardly understand what I had written and the spelling was terrible. Worse than it usually is.

Well... today I'm sitting here alone at work, no co-workers and no students. Yes I know... I was supposed to be on a trip today but my day started with a banging headache so I didn't want to take any chances. How fun would it have been to yell STOP THE CAR halfway there cause I would have to barf or something? So I decided to stay at work taking care of some stuff that was due to be done a long time ago. The headache is almost gone now and I've gotten a ton of things done that would have taken ages if I wasn't alone here so now I'm on my way home in a little while. If I hurry maybe I'll get some alone time at home as well since Magnus is picking up the kids today. I'd better lock this place up right now and head on home!

Oh what a day!

After getting up bright and early (long before the sun came out of its nightshelter) I had to drive to a million places before work.... actually it was only two stops before work, but it felt like more. First Leo was dropped of at pre-school and than Hugo was dropped of at Maggan's place and whit all the things one have to remember to drop of with the kids you would think I was some kind of rocket scientist and not a mother and teacher. When I finally got to work nothing went the way we had planed. Tomorrow we are going on a trip with the students and one of my co-workers was supposed to have organized everything from how many cars we are going to have and where and when we are going to be stopping. Today we still didn't know how many cars and how many people there would be. I still don't so tomorrow morning when I get to work I might be going on a trip or maybe I get to stay at work because there's not enough seats in the cars to carry us all.

Now, I'm finally home and we are making pizza.... during the time I've been writing this I've managed to burn one pizza.... Leo got stuck with his finger between two kitchen drawers and Hugo neads a change. I will have to call this quits for now..... see you later.... maybe.... who knows if I ever will be able to sit here again.

My first creation in a long time....

.... and I'm actually quite pleased with the result. Now I can't take credit for the idea of making a basket from paper since I found instructions on how to make it on Just Magnolia but I did make it from scratch. So from this morning we have a cute sugar basket at work instead of the boring package we used to have. Next project will be to decorate a nice box to keep our teabags in. But as usual it could take forever before I can even get started on that one.



So what do you think? Should I keep on creating or am I kidding myself when I think it looks ok for being my first try in ages?

Please no more fighting!

I've tried everything I can think of. I have pleaded, begged, tried to distract them, yelled at them, tried to keep them apart from eachother, tried to sing for them, let them watch dvd, ignored them, bribed them with candy..... and nothing works. They still fight with eachother every single minute I'm alone with them. I must be the worst mother ever!

The last couple of hours Leo has lost about half of his hair on his head from Hugo pulling it and Hugo must have like a thousand bruises on him from Leo kicking him. Just seconds ago Leo threw his pacifier under the table because he was told he couldn't pull my hair climbing up the sofa. Leo constantly pulls his diaper down showing everybody what he's got and gets mad when I pull it back up again. Hugo on the other hand is sitting on the table as soon as I turn my back on it....well he does it in front of me as well. And when I tell him to get down from there he just laughs at me and instead of getting down he moves more to the center of the table so it'll be harder for me to get him down. And while I lift Hugo down, Leo is climbing up.

I have a huge bump on my head from earlier today when Leo threw an old cellphone on me while I was on on the phone. First he tried to stuff the cell in my mouth and when I didn't let him he threw it on me instead. I know all this will probably stop as they get older but it doesn't take a scientist to figure out that they will be stronger and faster than me and if they would like to drive me insane they will have no problem what so ever doing just that.

Let's hope they decide they don't want to do that.... and that they make that decision soon so I won't have to move into a room with matresses on the walls and have lots of people wearing white watching my every move.

If you don't hear from me soon you now know where to look for me =)

Addicted....AGAIN!

I don't know why I do it.... but it happens over and over again. I buy lots of things thinking that I will somehow get time to do crafts if I only have all the stuff for it. Just this week I've bought like hundreds of little things over the internet (mostly by bidding on Tradera.com) and every month I get at packages from at least three different craft clubs where I'm a member. I have a room that is beginning to get swamped with all the stuff I've bought but never have the time to actually use. I guess I'll have to use it in my next life (if I get to have one).

Some inspiration...

A girl can dream can't she? Who am I kidding... when would I have time to make cards like that? But if I had some of that stuff it will definately be a help on the way so keep your fingers crossed that I will be the winner of the blogcandy on this site.
