You know you're tired when...

::You finally fall asleep and then start dreaming.  In your dreams you are DEAD TIRED and trying to keep your eyelids open.  And then you wake up.  DEAD TIRED and trying to keep your eyelids open.

::You buy a 16oz espresso even though you very rarely even finish a 12oz one. 

::Your bed is the most magical place in the whole world and you daydream about going to sleep in it all day long.

::You don't even care that the kids have taken out every. single. toy. they. own. because it gives you 15 minutes of time to just sit on the couch and stare at the wall.

::You may or may not have given your kids hotdogs 3x in the last week for lunch... because it's just too much work to make sandwiches.

::You put refrigerated items in the cupboards.  And don't notice until the next time you open the cupboard.

::You're yawning so much you can hardly see through your squinty, watery eyes and your kiddos think you keep crying.

::You don't even care that the dog is eating all the food that the kids have thrown on the floor.  Even though it gives her biohazardous gas.  Because it means you don't have to vacuum as soon.

::You use the broom to gather up all the toys.  And then use the dustpan to dump them in the toybox.  And you think it's totally normal and acceptable behavior.

::You use copious amounts of wipes even though you have no kids in diapers.  Because they are just SO HANDY for wiping faces/hands/the gunk off the leather couches/etc... And you don't have to get up, because they live by the couch.

::There may or may not be a giant booty imprint on the couch from where you've been sitting the past 3 weeks. :-D

Those wipes! Yes! I buy them in bulk and use them ALL the time. Not just for dirty butts! Snack clean-up in the car, fingerprints on the wall, black feet because I'm too lazy to give the kids baths... And I feel that they're way safer than Clorox wipes to give to my kids and say, "Help Mommy clean!"
