Where Does the Time Go?

There are about a million things that I really should be doing, but as for right now, the laundry is in the dryer, the dishes are done, and although Zuri's toys are scattered about the living room, Zuri herself is "down" for a nap.  By "down" I mean she is playing in her room.  Kai is also sleeping, so I am taking a moment to relax.  Lately, it seems that as soon as I put Zuri down for her nap, Kai decides that is the time to wake up, and then he is up pretty much the rest of the day, so I don't have the opportunity for a break.

Where does the day go?  I am constantly amazed at how fast the days go by.  I remember working and the time always seemed to just drag on.  Since I have been at home, however, the time goes so fast.  Is it already almost two in the afternoon?  How is it already Thursday?  Zuri and Kai certainly keep me busy.  When I was home with just Zuri, it seemed as though I had plenty of downtime.  With two (and with the extra care Kai requires), I have very little.  Luckily, I have a caring and considerate husband, who although doesn't always understand my need for reading/blogging/scrapbooking/whatever, is very supportive and gives me the time that I need.  I am trying to fit going back to the gym in there--I have figured out the best time, it is just getting to it.  Once I start in the routine it will stick--I just have to start. 


My time is occupied by these two cuties.
