Going thru a rough patch?

[playfelt]

I also find I usually need to change something in the setup or order when I feel that way too and it is usually a simple change but when you figure out if you store the wipes on the right hand second shelf they are faster to get down and put up than where you were storing them you also realize heck by the end of 3-4 diaper changes x 5 kids that actually translates into saved minutes. Sometimes it is removing a toy that I just can't stand them fighting over again or me having to say get down off the table so instead I put something on the table so there is no room for them on there or move it or put things around it so they can't get to it or whatever. Again it reduces the stress level which reduces the unsettled feelings.

And it is ok to be "on vacation" at home for the summer and take a break from most programming and then Septemeber is new again for everyone.

I love my tea breaks. The kids know they are not supposed to ask me for stuff when I have my tea. Then again constantly asking me "are you done your tea yet" is not helpful either.
