I ate a homemade breakfast of chocolate-flavored coffee and 'loaded' avocado toast this morning at the bus stop.
Got to campus with over an hour before lab class. So I sat and read my library book. Ended up finishing it.
Today's chem lab was about the Conductivity of different compounds. We have to use the data to make scatter charts and them use those scattered charts to finish the lab worksheet. It's all due by next Thursday.
Took the kids to the playground and then out to the diner for supper.
Now at home, I'm deep cleaning my room since I haven't been able to since classes first started.

In our society, a mother suffers guilt no matter what she does.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If she’s on top of her kids making sure everything’s okay, she’s called a helicopter mom, and if she lets them run around as she sits on the side talking to a friend, she’s neglectful.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If she prefers cooking from scratch and organic everything, her kids are “going to go crazy on junk food when they go to someone else’s house.” And if she feeds them donuts and muffins for breakfast some mornings because she’s in a rush or "just because," then her kids are unhealthy. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If she breastfeeds and doesn’t produce enough milk, and her baby isn’t thriving, then she’s a failure. But when she adds formula, she’s more of a failure for not giving her baby all breast milk.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If she stays home with her kids, she should be working—"how can her family financially keep up?” But if she's working, she's met with "they're only little once."⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If she hasn't lost the postpartum weight, "gosh, she let herself go." But if she did, "wow, she must not eat, spend hours working out, and neglect her children.”⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In a society that knows “everything” and places too many expectations on moms,⁣⁣
If you listen to everyone else,⁣⁣
you’re always going to fall short.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So, DON’T LISTEN,⁣⁣
and stop feeling bad for your choices.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Throw those internalized unrealistic expectations away,⁣⁣
and do what’s best for you and your family.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It’s called “your family” for a reason.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Besides, if you love your children and try,⁣⁣
you’re a good mom.⁣⁣

The hardest part about becoming a mom.
When I got pregnant the first time, I read every book, every article, every single piece of information I could to prepare myself for a baby. I didn't want to be caught off guard by anything. When my son came into this world, it felt natural. I felt like I did know what to do, motherhood itself felt natural. Then after a little bit of time I felt the true difficulty of becoming a mom. It wasn't the late nights, the diaper changes, the sore nipples. None of that was truly as difficult as the loss of your identity, the loss of your past self.
This is what I mourned over. I knew life would be different, but you think that even with kids you can hold on to some of what you used to do. I was so wrong. In such a shot period of time I lost many friends, because I didn't have the time or the want to go out anymore. You can still drink but you don't because the idea of taking care of a baby with a hangover if enough to kill any buzz. Then, even after you get cleared for sex after the six weeks, the sex is just different. No more exciting, loud and passionate sex. It's now "SHH don't wake the baby!!" sex. The hobbies I used to love I simply have to time for. My whole life revolves around loving and taking care of my kids. Which makes things even harder because even though I am sitting here mourning who I used to be, I love my kids with everything I have. I have to mourn my old life because I would do anything for my kids. This doesn't make it any easier though. To go from being an independent person, living your life however you see fit in the moment, to being constantly needed, constantly depended on, having every move in your life revolved around two little angels.
Its a guilt that arises from this. A guilt for mourning when you have everything right in front of you. So this is part has been the most difficult part of motherhood for me.

It sickens me to think that we live in a world where someone walked into a school with a loaded gun and killed 19 children and 2 teachers. I can't even imagine the pain and sadness that community is going through. The is no longer a safe place for those kids. If kids have stuff going on at home, going to school used to be a safe place. Yesterday changed that. That shooter not only took the lives of those 21 people but also took the comfort of know your child is ok in school from the whole country. No parent should worry that when they kiss their kid that morning it might be the last time. When will this violence stop? People are living in fear. Fear of the unknown. Fear of shopping at target and having your child be kidnapped, sending them to school and worrying about shootings. Not ok, do better America. Guns don't kill people, people kill people. For the media to make all this about gun laws is not only disrespectful to the families who lost loved ones but also takes away what happened. Politicians have their own agenda and use terrible events of what happened to speak "their truth". There's 19 kids that won't get to grow up, go to college, get married, start their own family. There's 2 families of the teachers whose kids will have to grow up without a mother. Those are the victims in all of this. No one has stopped and asked why did this happen? It's not the gun, it's not the lack of mental health help that we have, it's the shit show that we live in. People are going insane, no one is on the same page and instead of having a conversation and try to see it from a different view people blow up. Political views are ripping families apart. So please let's take politics out of this. I know that I will be hugging my kids tighter going forward. I woke up this morning and thought of the poor parents waking up to a quiet house this morning because their child is no longer there. We all need to come together and do better.

My only class today was Chemistry lecture. In lecture, we learned all about Quantum Mechanics as it pertains to the field of chemistry.
The rain today had my coat soaked through to the point that it was making me colder by wearing it.
Now home, I'm starting a supper of seared pork chops, potato mash, sourkraut and frozen mixed veg. Might also serve apple sauce to rhe Littles.

Gotta stop coming up with excuses, and just do it!
Even just 10 little minutes of cardio a day will make a pretty big difference. Which is my current goal! Just 10 minutes every single day.
